14 is legal in Canada.
Actually, legally it's 12, if you can prove she's had previous intercourse with a different party.. hell, you can marry her at 12 without a parent's consent if she gets knocked up.

Are you trying to say *I* am one? Or that is the definition of one? I am far from it, and I have two daughters.. I don't agree with the law at ALL, however such is the facts, and like it or not, under the LAW, it is how it is.

Learn the meaning of words before you use them.
I concur.
If he's daing a 16 year old it may offend and upset you, but you have to look at the laws regarding the legality of the issue. And the definition of what a pedo is.

There is no law in Canada that says an adult can have sex with a 12 year old.

But they can marry them if their pregnant.. check cannon law One would assume that if she's pregnant, she had to have sex first. Unless sales of turkey basters have increased radically in the last few years? It's semantics really.. I wouldn't be happy with my daughters dating an older guy, but we can only set them the guidelines to live their life by, we can't live it for them. There comes a point in time when you have to respect a person's decision, be that person older or younger, to do with their life what they will. I would try to GUIDE my children in the right direction if a situation like this happened, but when it all comes down to it, they're going to do it anyways. You can only hope for the best, right?
