Honestly, it really depends on what state you're in. This is because states vary in their age of consent. For instance, in California, it's 18. In Alaska, it's 16. In Colorado, it's 17. Really, the ages differ.
Either way, it's not illegal in any state unless you plan to sleep with him. In Arizona, California, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, North Dakota, Oregon, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, Wisconsin, Wyoming, and the US Virgin Islands, you cannot sleep with an adult if you're 17 or younger. In these states, the age of consent is 18.

What? Did you think you were an adult at age 18?Do you know why you are considered an adult at age 18? Because boys can be drafted at that age. Why are they drafted at that age? Because the human brain is still so much mush at that point.The military has to overcome the inherent reservation to killing another human. As you get older, this becomes harder. In a way, it is a form of brain washing.
The human brain develops in stages.
At birth, until age two, the human brain is at the same level as most upper level mammals. Some thing can be learned, but long term memory is not yet established. There are children that develop earlier and faster, but their average life span is also shorter. People like Einstein didn't develop his full intelligence until his 20s.
At age two, the brain begins developing the ability for long term memory storage. This is what most parents call the terrible twos, but there is nothing terrible as it shows the wonder of the human brain. It takes ten year for the brain to store enough data for the next stage, conceptual thought.
This BEGINS developing at puberty. It is a time when we BEGIN understanding concepts such as love. Prior to this time, it was just a word adults used under certain situations.
This stage takes 12 years to complete in females, and 18 years to complete in males. Christ was not mature enough to leave home and make his own decisions until age 30. Until this time you are still feeling the desires and wants of a child. You body is producing a hormone that overrides the logic of your brain, when you really want something. As an adolescent it was that newest toy, but as a teenager, it's a boy. It is all the same. You so desire something that all else is ignored.
