    Angry Age of Consent Laws in Oklahoma

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Oklahoma

    Yesterday my 17 year old daughter informed her mother and I that she is pregnant by her 17 year old boyfriend. Personal feelings aside what are my rights as a parent under the laws of Oklahoma to either prosecute this boy if it becomes necessary, or pursue child support against him?

    Of course this issue being so new and raw for me, I am not sure either will be necessary. I would of course seek legal council for my daughter should the need become real. I am just looking for the short version of:

    what is the age of consent in Oklahoma?

    What are her rights for child support should she decide to have the child?

    What are the boys rights to stop an abortion if she chooses that route?

    Sorry that came out as more questions than I intended.

    None.

    Your daughter can pursue child support against the father of the child when said child is born and paternity is established.

    You, as grandfather, don't have a dog in this fight.

    what is the age of consent in Oklahoma?
    16

    What are her rights for child support should she decide to have the child?
    Whatever the court decides.

    What are the boys rights to stop an abortion if she chooses that route?
    He doesn't have the right to stop the abortion.

    CyJeff hit the nail on the head. There's really nothing to charge him with as the AOC in Oklahoma is 16.

    It's certainly not my place to tell you how to raise your daughter, but please bear in mind that her boyfriend is probably just as scared, worried, and confused as anybody. Threatening legal action against him may scare him away completely, leaving your daughter and your family to care for the child alone.

    Best of luck!
