Do you know anything about the American legal system?!

+1 Amazing how hysterical some of you are. "Just get drunk". It's not a healthy concept, but it's not an uncommon one. OP should talk to her DD about many things, but a lot of you need to smoke a J and chill the f out. |

Wow. Harassing the girl to have sex is not in the same league as cracking a joke at someone’s expense or egging someone on to do something dumb. Losing your virginity is pretty life altering for most people. Your defense here explains why there are so many bullies in this world. You think it’s acceptable. And nice to point out that what the girl posted means it’s open season on her. Wow. |

a person can be a party to a crime by doing many different things before, during, and after the crime is committed that can legally make one a party and accessory to the crime. TPC sec. 7.01. “PARTIES TO OFFENSES” provides that “(a) A person is criminally responsible as a party to an offense if the offense is committed [1] by his own conduct, [2] by the conduct of another for which he is criminally responsible, or [3] by both.” Thus, the person who commits the act is a party and anyone else whom the law defines as a party is criminally responsible for the act. Subsec. (b) provides that each “ party to an offense may be charged with commission of the offense.” Sec. 7.02, describes three situations where a person is a “party,” i.e., criminally responsible for the conduct of another. If the party does not commit the offense directly, to be liable, the party must want, intend or desire that the other person commit the offense. Second, a under sec. 7.02 (a)(2), a person is responsible for the acts of another if “acting with intent to promote or assist the commission of the offense, he solicits, encourages, directs, aids, or attempts to aid the other person to commit the offense.” This is the classic definition of an “accomplice” and also includes those who solicit others to commit crimes. (The crime of solicitation is discussed in ch. 7.) Thus is A asks (solicits) B to commit a crime, A intends that the crime be committed, and B commits the crime, A (along with B) are guilty of the crime committed by B. https://www.avvo.com/legal-answers/what-are-examples-of-accessory-to-rape--721538.html |

The girl is the one who made a joke of her own virginity, though. She's got to own that. Obviously the other kids took it and ran with it. But the one who put this topic out on the table for discussion was the girl. She's the one who announced her intention to lose her virginity. The whole thing was starting to get out of hand and there was some line crossing when luckily the girl's mother figured out what was going on and put an abrupt end to it before any real damage was done. Hopefully all of these kids will learn a lesson from this and their parents will take the opportunity to discuss it with them in length. |

| Granted I never did anything remotely close to what your daughter did. But the worst punishment I had growing up was having to wrote a 5 page report on why I did something dumb/reckless/etc. it’s agonizing to write. |

| You raised a child who is a part of why me too exists. I would be livid too. |

No, it is not typical. |

Teenagers, even good ones, sometimes do bad things. Poor judgment is practically the hallmark of the teen years. Your daughter owes this girl an apology that’s every bit as public as the teasing/ pressuring was. And you owe your daughter a conversation about your expectations, etiquette, privacy, and the downsides of social media.
We should all take note of the number of PP who’d like to burn this girl at the stake. |

If the victim told OP’s daughter to stop contacting/bothering her, continued texts could violate Maryland’s harassment and telephone misuse statutes. 3-803 and 3-804. Because OP’s daughter is a juvenile that would almost certainly NOT happen, but I believe there’s an argument here that the texts may have violated those two laws, depending on exactly what was said and when. -a Maryland prosecutor |

| Op, remember to thank the girl's mom for bringing this to your attention.... |

The point is that these hysterical posters don’t know what was said when, whether the other girl ever asked OP’s daughter to stop sending messages, or what jurisdiction the girls live/go to school in. There’s insufficient information, and it seems way over the top for the PPs to start hyperventilating about criminal charges when no one knows the pertinent details. Unlike your post, which contained the appropriate qualifiers, other PPs aren’t being so responsible. |
