    Post Is it Illegal to Kiss a 16-Year-Old Girl

    My question involves criminal law for the state of:
    Are there any charges that could be pressed against me for kissing a 16 years old girls? She was in a cultural exchange program to Morocco and that is where I met her. She is American from Pennsylvania, 16 years old and I am Moroccan. During her program in Morocco we have been dating each other for 2 weeks. A case was reported to program's headquarter in Portland, Maine that one of the American students was dating a Moroccan. We have never had sexual intercourse. We only kissed for three times and there was no internet to have sex with her.

    If you're in Morocco, then it's a matter of Moroccan law, not U.S. law.

    In fact, she has left Morocco yesterday heading to the USA. Some of the staff in this cultural program have been telling me that I could face some charges. Do you think, according to my case, that a lawsuit should be filed?

    I think you should do what every other teen does when the subject of the holiday romance goes home: keep the memories, and move on with your life.

    Assuming you're not 45 and her teacher, at least.

    The activity took place in morraco so the laws of morraco will govern the matter. It would have to be prosecuted in morraco as well. The U.S. connection is irrelevant.

    Just so you know. The internet is not a requirement to have sex with someone.

    General rule of thumb - if you have to question whether any given action is legal or not, then regardless of whether the answer is yes or no, it's probably wisest not to do it.

    This applies in all areas of life.
