    Default Statutory Rape

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Georgia
    Hello,
    I was 12 or 13 when I first had consensual sex with a guy that was 18 or 19 at the time. We have been continuing having sex for going on 4 years now. When I was 14, I became pregnant with the same guy (he was 21 at the time). I had the baby at 15 years old. I am now 16; the baby is 6 months. Her father has not paid child support or helped in anyway. My mom recently called the cops on him and I was wondering what he would be charged with, and how long might he have to serve?
    Thanks.

    He could be charged with stat rape or child molestation. Its anyone's guess as to how long he could get in lock up, and he would be forced to pay child support once paternity testng is done.

    On the plus side, all of those other children out there that come here to ask how they can "be" with their adult boyfriends just got a wake up call.

    So, you are 16... have a child... the boy who has had sex with you since before you had any secondary female characteristics has abandoned you and the child... and now you have to chase him for support.

    How is your school going? Do you have a college plan?

    How would he be able to pay child support if he is in jail?



    And yes sir, I have an extremely supportive family, and they all have agreed to help in any way they can to help me further my education. I am a senior in high school, and I am a year ahead of my class. I attend a school, called the Performace Learning Center, which helps students like me. It has a flexible schedule for mothers furthering their education. After I plan on going on to college. Thank you for your concern.

    Aside from whatever charge he gets - Statutory Rape or Child Molestation - he will likely also be on the Sex Offender Registry for the rest of his life.

    Personally, I would love to see you talk to groups of your peers and tell them how hard it is to raise a child when you are still very young yourself. Maybe you could make a difference to a few thinking of having sex....

    Guess he should have thought about that before he started schtupping children.

    He won't. But that's what happens when you commit a crime.

    You can pursue him in Family Court and go after him for support, but you had better hope the police and the DA don't file on him for molesting you.

    Thanks. I actually have looked into talking and counseling teens.

    The obligation won't go away simply because he's sitting in the klink. It will just continue to accrue.

    I'm sorry, but I'm still not quite understanding. Will I be paid the child support issued, or will it just pile up, and he will payback the government when he is released?
