What is the name of your state? Mississippi
My daughter, who is 16 has just told me that she's 3 months pregnant by a 23 year old boy. Neither kids want to keep the baby; they've both agreed that she have it and put it up for adoption...but, this was before I heard about all this. First of all, can this be considered statutory rape? Secondly, do I have any legal right to say what happens to this child since she is a minor? I'm still in SHOCK about all this and just trying to figure out what would be best...
