Pregnant, near statutory? sorry, and don't be a smart butt. gratefulness.?

ok, so, in TN if a 22 year old were to take a 16 year old pregnant, I know it's very very potential he would get charged with statutory rape. But what are the chances he wouldn't, and what could you influence to maybe lower his time, or keep him out of trouble.

Please don't give me a dumb, hurtful, or stupid answer, thanks.
id read aloud about 50% because if nobody says anything that he'd be fine :) like if the 16 year dated parents dont snitch he's fine..or anybody else
First let me be clear that I normally don't condone this type of relationship next to a grown man and a teenager. Having said that, you cannot change what is done and now you obligation to find a way to keep your baby's father in his/her time.

Onto my answer now... Is it possible for you to say you don't know who the father is? You will know, and he will know, but it's important right very soon for it to stay that way. Generally the guy gets in trouble surrounded by these situations because of the girls parents. You said the age in TN to get married is 17 if you're pregnant -- will you be 17 before the wind up of the pregnancy? If so, get married and he will stay out of jail then you can share everyone that he's the father.

You could also try the honest approach. I know you say that your parents will not be OK with this (I'm assuming they won't be OK with the pregnancy OR the reality that the father is 22), but if you guys sit down together and tell them and you have a plan and they see that you're being responsible for your travels maybe they will be more understanding than you think.

Obviously here are other choices you could make in this situation and nobody can be sure how it will end. Good luck, I hope the child doesn't suffer contained by any of this.
Answers:    OK Ignore sgt shammy because she gives horrible answers to everyone- not just you. I know because I've blocked her and would not do so if I hadn't see some terrible answers from her! Anyway- the only way he would acquire arrested or charged with anything is if your parents pressed charges. Is there any way you can attain around telling your parents his age? The fact that he has a child to support make to difference to a judge, so the only way around him going to incarcerate is to keep people from pressing charges. Try just not unfolding them how old he is.
it depends, whether your parents or guardian press charges but within most states 16 is the age of consent( I don't know how TN works) so he might not get in trouble
he will go to jail. anyone can press the charges against him too. It doesn't hold to be you or your parents.
just get an abortion kiddo.

----edit----

just because you carry knocked up doesn't mean you can break the law and preserve him from jail! lol
getting knocked up also doesn't magically make you ready or ready to be a parent.

any idiot can have sex, but it takes much more to be a responsible, develop and financially stable parent. Age DOES matter! Maturity is gained through life experiences and duration experiences are obtained over time.

if you can't afford a baby (independently and 100% on your own) then YOU HAVE NO BUSINESS HAVING A CHILD
parents permission would help

getting married would be best then within is nothing they can do.
The age of consent in TN is 18 y/o.

Most of the time, it is parents that end up getting the male thrown contained by jail.

SgtShamy is a broken record suggesting that every teen on here to get a abortion.Ignore the ignorance.
