What is the name of your state? California
I would like to know my legal rights to the situation I have at hand. My 14-year old daughter has been seeing a 16-year old boy without permission. Typical 14-year old issues of sneaking out and lying about seeing the 16-year old boy until she got caught. But here are the issues I have with the 16-year old boy. The 16-year old boy is under house arrest for assualt. To add to this, I have come to find out that the 16-year old boy has been smoking marijuana and having sex with my 14-year old daughter. I have tested my 14-year old daughter and she has come up positive for marijuana. Is there anything that I can do legally to stop my 14-year old daughter from seeing the 16-year old boy?

Well, he's on house arrest so talk to his probation officer, and let them know what he is doing. The only law he broke was smoking pot....
