Should a 12 year old date a 17 year old?

If my daughter was 12, I'd kick her arse and his.

If my son was 12, I'd take him to McDonald's to celebrate.

At 12 years old I wouldn't hold the girl 100% responsible for her actions.
That's her parents job.

The 17 year old boy, on the other hand is 100% responsible.

Some time in jail and having to register as a sex offender might clear his head

yeah man, what's he thinking? at 17 i would'nt even look twice at a 12 year old, especially with all the hot girls in HS...this guy must be a real pathetic loser going after youngling's like that

A 12 year old girl has no business dating anybody (let alone a 17 year old boy), she's still a bloody child.

Same here

when I was a freshman at 15, I had an 18 year old chick, she was a senior...that was pretty cool she let me do w/e I wanted to her

"Bark like a dog. A big dog. Hop on one leg. Make a noise like an orangatang"

[Meule]

"Bark like a dog. A big dog. Hop on one leg. Make a noise like an orangatang"

I think he said "hop on MY leg"

[huedell]

I'll take anything I can get for a laugh there (I was actually quoting the
Prince...Eddie Murphy...in COMING TO AMERICA!)

Eewww..no. So many issues here. Most likely the 12 year has a crush on the 17 year old and it is the 17 year old's responsibility to recognize it for what it is and not encourage it.
I would agree he needs help. When I was 17 I was not popular with the ladies. But I never considered someone that young to the answer.

[fallensaviour]

Hell no!!!
I have a fourteen year old and if some ****** 17 year old puke knocked on my door to get her he'd wake up in the hospital as a chick!!!

How could a parent brag about that. It's a nightmare scenario for normal people.

I thought I was so grown up when I was 12. I had the body of a well-endowed 18 year old (and the hormones to match). I guess for me, it comes down to whether or not sex is included in dating.

If they just enjoy each other's company then so be it, but I think it would probably be hard for both of them to keep it to that, and therefore just asking for trouble. If they can keep it on a platonic level until a more appropriate age, then good luck to them.

Sorry but I find double standards not even remotely amusing.
