Legal Question in Family Law in Missouri

You are 15. Under MO law you are a child and not old enough to consent to sex. What you and your boyfriend have done is legally "statutory rape". If I were your father, I would have your boyfriend prosecuted to the full extent of the law. The fact that you are pregnant at your age raises moral issues that I can not address. I'm 63 years old and we had teenage sex way back in the dark ages, but, tell me, have you never had of birth control? 30% of my practice involves people who make babies, and you have no idea of the legal problems, not to mention the moral and pratical problems you are facing. If you have this baby, you have many more problems than you do now. Talk with your parents honestly and follow their advice. If you, or your parents want to contact me for advice, I can be reached at 314-727-2822 for a free telephone consultation. You definitely need an attorney for you and your unborn baby.
