What happens if an 18 year old boy gets a 15 year old girl pregnant in Scotland?

Nothing happens unless someone presses charges, which rarely happens. Underage pregnancy is a massive problem in the UK and it is rarely thought about in terms of being the male’s fault for having underage sex- as it takes two to do these things. The parents could press charges if they were really upset about it, in which case he would probably go to trial and so on, but as I say that rarely happens and parents just accept their daughter decided to have sex (assuming she was not raped- if she was then obviously charges are very likely to be pressed and be worse because the victim was a minor) and now has to deal with the consequences.

Yes underage sex is illegal and so he could be charged for it, but no one ever picks up the issue unless someone actually tells the police they are unhappy and it needs to be dealt with, in which case they would have to enquire and maybe take further action.

hay im new at this so if anyone wants to add me my emails jonathonwoodsfansite(a)hotmail.com and hopefully jail time for knocking up a kiddy

I live in Germany and we have a similar situation here.

The Legal age in my country is 14 if the older partner is between 14 and 20 and the legal age is 16 whatever the age of the other partner. Which is a very liberal law compared to other countries.

Yet, if a 13 year old girl gets pregnant and the father is 14 or 15, nobody will consider it a crime unless she has been forced/ compelled /raped /abused during the intercourse. People just consider it normal that teenagers experiment with their sexuality. And a pregnancy is considered an “accident” in that “game”.

Nobody here actually believes that laws and punishment will prevent any teen pregnancy. And people see that it is not solely the boys fault if teenagers have sex. There’s two to it.

My federal state has moved sexual education in biology class from 8th grade (13-14 year old students) to 4th grade, primary school in the 1990ies. So the kids get a couple of lessons on human reproduction at really young age. And later, at 6th grade (equivalent to 2nd grade of US middle school, kids are 11 or 12), they get more lessons where they learn details about human reproduction, learn about sexually transmitted diseases and about the different contraceptives and how reliable or unreliable these are. This knowledge is tested and repeated the next couple of years at school, until the last id*ot understood it, so they know everything before they start experimenting… and THAT helped reducing teen pregnancies.

nothing i dont think i was 15 and my babys dad was 20 and nothing has happed.

Try and it will be made abundantly clear to you

i thought under age pregnancy was common in scotland
