Requires more effort. I think they'd probably find something else to do.
Anyway 17 y/os, still considered a child or no?
I think it can vary from 17 y/o to 17 y/o. Though in nearly all cases I'd say they'd be physically mature, but probably not intellectually mature.
I wonder how they determine that someone is
intellectually mature.
I knew a few people my age who aren't in that category.

Who was he? =)

she was my girlfriend, from the UK and my age
Here, the age of consent is 16. And God damn it, bless my country.

Yeah, now I'm wondering too.
I'd say it'd be something to do with being able to make half-decently responsible and well thought out decisions which have an accurate awareness of the consequences of an action.
Haha, I'm probably not in that category 50% of the time, but I wouldn't want it any other way.
That's stupid.... what kind of sick f*** would want to watch it in the first place...
In Russia, 14 y.o. take full criminal responsibility. However they go to a special teen jail till they turn 18, after 18 they get transferred to a regular adult jail. My childhood friend killed a cop. He was 15. He got 3 years in pre-adult jail and 12 years in regular jail for that. Should be out in like 7 years.
