If i was to get preganat could my boyfriend go to jail?
Me and my boyfriend have been together for ten months now. Im 15 years old and he is 17 years old and we live in Georgia . Our parents know we are together and having sex and havent done anything about this and allow it to happen. But if i was to get pregnant could they send my boyfriend to jail EVEN THOUGH they allowed it to happen?

yes, legally they can not allow it, if a teacher or your doctor or some other professional finds out and turns you in, he can still be arrested,
There is no defense to rape of a minor that can not give consent ( in general)
And as one who has worked the system, he does not want to be in the system as one who did this, it is not a pretty place in prison on that charge

The age of consent in Georgia is 16; also - parents cannot waive the age of consent. Underage sex, underage drinking - no one can change the legal age, including parents.

I very much doubt you are correct that "2 - your parents gave consent to it" makes it all right.

My other suggestion would be if you are determined to have sex at an early age, protect yourself against pregnancy/disease.

If he were to jail it wouldn't be for "getting you pregnant" - it would be for having underage sex.
