Legal Question in Discrimination Law in Florida

I just turned 14 years old in march and I have a boyfriend that is 17 years old and will be turning 18 in september. We've been dating for 10 months. Two months after my boyfriend turned 17 his father freaked out and made rules that keep us from hugging, kissing, holding hands, showing PDA or practically being around eachother. We've lasted with these rules for longer than 5 months. My boyfriend and I have NOT had sex and are not interested in having sex.

So my question is... is it illegal for a 14 year old to date a 17 year old and be allowed to hug, kiss, hold hands and show PDA? Will I get him in trouble if we continue to date?

As soon as he turns 18, it will be illegal. As a 14 year old, I would say it is inappropriate and agree with his father.
