Now you seem not to take the issue seriously.
An "Ace-approved" response would be statutory rape is a crime. The person committing that crime should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. So, as I talk to the victim of a rape crime I would seek as much information as possible in a sympathetic manner. Then I would share what I know about the law and the crime to the child. I would explain that help is available. And before the conversation ended I would let the child know that it was my obligation to report the alleged crime to the proper authorities.
Am I to understand that some among us here would handle this situation differently? If so, how and why? Is it me, or is my impression correct, that some don't take this seriously? I am truly at a loss trying to understand what I think I am picking up here. Perhaps you can help, my questions are not personal, it just seems that our cultural expectations regarding sex and our children is at an all time low.

I believe what dippin was trying say was "what does statutory rape have to do with this conversation about sexual education in the context of two teenagers having sex before they are 18?" And seriously, what does it?
