When teens have consensual sex

When teens have consensual sex: "

SINGAPORE, Nov 1 — Should teens in love be prosecuted if they have underage sex?


There is no easy answer here.


Other cases involving underage sex — for example, when one party is an adult — may have a clear-cut answer, but teen cases are hard to prosecute, said Attorney-General Walter Woon.


“It’s basically kids having sex.What do you do if the couple think they’re in love? It’s less easy if the girl consents,” he noted.


He spoke on this topic yesterday before social workers, government representatives and teachers at the third annual Singapore Children’s Society Lecture.
