- (sorry, I don't know how to make all of those funny little marks)
-
- There is a little problem here when the word "consent" is used in
- the same sentance as adults espicaly when the former modifies
- the latter.
-
- Each state has it's own "age of consent which ranges from 12 (in, I
- beleive New Mexico and Hawaii - but only under certain circumstances \
- and, I am not a lawyer so do not take this as the gospel truth if
- you live in either of these places and are about to do something) to
- 18 in others. So, shall we have a "national" age of consent. I
- beleive the Dtch do,I think that it is 14.
