[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is harassment and I would encourage the other family to press charges. My teenage DD would be before a judge in no time if she acted like this. This isn't petty mean girl behavior, this is illegal. If the other family doesn't want to press charges I would look into a scared straight kind of program. [/quote]

It's illegal to pressure someone about having sex? Wrong, sure, but pressing charges? Please cite a source of a law that would support this. [/quote]

If it became harassment the parents can turn the text messages over to the police who can determine if they want to press charges. They absolutely can be prosecuted. [/quote]

What statute do you believe OP’s daughter violated? (Please note, I don’t think we know what jurisdiction OP lives/DD attends school in). [/quote]

Not the PP, but someone doesn’t need to specify a statute for something to be illegal. And some of these issues are still being figured out anyway in the courts. Some people were shocked when Michelle Carter was convicted of manslaughter ‘just’ for calls and texts and emails.

I think the safest bet is to assume that strongly encouraging a crime (like statutory rape, or for that matter underage drinking) is also a crime. So is bullying someone into allowing themselves to be the victim of a crime. Anything else is tempting fate (and karma) a bit too much for me.[/quote]
