Because of your age? (Would you have felt the same with a 17 yr old girl?) Her age? Her being your best friends mother (strained or uncomfortable relation with friend?) In much of europe and south america, I think the age of consent is around 14. (In Iowa it appears to be 14 unless the youth complains then its 16.) In Europe are there Debra Lafave type issues? > Never, at any time between then and now, have I felt that she > should have been jailed for this. But some sort of therapy to help her grow out of this behavior would have been useful. And therapy for you? I mean was it all "her" fault?
