Question Posted Wednesday December 10 2008, 4:39 pm
My little sister is 17 years old and I think she's hooking up with my friend who is 23. I know that they care about each other because they both come to me and talk about it. The only thing I'm worried about as an older sister and best friend is that he could get into a lot of trouble if the wrong person finds out, right? Is the sex age of New York 17 even if the other person is over 21?

Thats not saying that if parents really
wanted to push the issue, they couldn't
make his life miserable. They could. [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
