    Help I may be in trouble
    If I am 17 and a 12 year old tries to convince me to have sex with her, am I the victim or can I be charged with statutory rape?

    Um, I'm pretty sure you can only be charged with statutory rape if you are over the age of 18. Don't think you're a victim... But ahh... Being your age, and being sexually active with a 12 year old... Doesn't sound like a healthy situation... Maybe you should try somebody your own age? Or perhaps counsiling? o.Q No affence.
    But of course, Age IS but a number. But then again, the difference BETWEEN those two numbers are quite high. But it's your choice. Hope I've helped. :D

    Yes but I have a girlfriend and I have no interest in doing anything with this girl and I agree with you on how she's young and thank you for your help

    If you have sex with her yes you can and will be charged with rape, depending on the state law, you may be chaged as a Juv but most likely at 17 you will be charged as a adult.

    You will be considered a sex offender for the rest of your life, and have to register as one.
