jac7 Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 OK so there's this guy, he's a garbageman and he's 22 going on 23 that is dating a recently turned 15 year old girl. They've only known each other for a few days and they've already made out. Who knows how far this guy is willing to go with her and I find this really disturbing and I really want to report it but dont know how. I think the girl might be lying to her parents and saying that he's really 18-19 but that is not the case. Any ideas what I could do? My original plan was to report it annonymously to his job but do you think they would they be able to do anything? Any advice is welcomed because I'm a fellow high school student of this girl and I'm very concerned over this. Link to comment
avman Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 You can contact the police in your area to make a report about this. I highly doubt an anonymous report to his job is going to do much. You'll probably need to go to the police so they can investigate. Link to comment
SomeRandom Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Yeah, just go to the police station in your area. That's even more messed up then a senior at my school dating a freshman. Link to comment
avman Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 stop being so bitter she rejected you for someone older. What are you talking about? Link to comment
jac7 Posted July 27, 2009 Author Share Posted July 27, 2009 Yeah, what are you talking about? I'm not interested in this girl, I'm just concerned about what this guys intentions are and how serious he plans on taking this relationship. This isnt a situation where they're just "hanging out", they're dating and she wants to be his girlfriend. Link to comment
SomeRandom Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 What are you talking about? I think he's referring to me that the freshman girl rejected me so she could be with a older guy. Link to comment

amure Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 idk about your state/country, but theres not much the police can do unless they've had sex. Link to comment
gidget1 Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 idk about your state/country, but theres not much the police can do unless they've had sex. Yeah, this is true. Unless they're having sex, there isn't anything you can do. Just tell her parents. Link to comment
surfNski Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Does she have a dad or a brother? Tell them, that should take care of the problem... Link to comment
unabashed Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 You could speak to a school counselor, who is a mandated reporter of suspected child abuse. Or, you could contact the child abuse hotline yourself, even anonymously. They would look into it and make the determination whether there is abuse or not. Link to comment
Brisby Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Are you not good enough friends with the girl to talk it over with her? Link to comment
Firall Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Why exactly does it bother you? In some states its not illegal even if they have sex. I'm not sure about others but I know this because I live in Colorado, where it's legal, and I know a couple with the exact same age range. Why it's not illegal? He made sure she got the ok to be with him from her parents. Theres a small part of the age of consent law that allows for younger than 17 (age of consent) to be with older people, within 10 years age difference, provided the parents allow it. I don't know the person you speak of personally, but I do know the guy here. He is not a pedophile. He's not stupid. At first I thought he was delusional, seeing as how I didn't believe someone that young could be emotionally mature enough to handle being in a serious relationship, but in the last 6-7 months I've been proved wrong... at least so far. Anyway the point of all this is, my opinion is I don't think this is a situation you should meddle too much in. The person you should really be talking to is her if you really suspect he's just using her. Link to comment
