Can a 17 year old date a 14 year old in Illinois

Sexual acts with a minor are punishable by law (doesn't have to be penetration to be considered sexual).I've been in your shoes.(17/2) + 7 = 15.5.There are no laws governing dating in most of the world.In most states in the us and most of the developed world the age of consent is 16 so keep your knickers.

For people 18 or over, it is illegal for them to commit acts of a sexual nature on persons who are under the age of 18 if they are in a position of authority or trust over the victim.This means it is a crime for anyone, regardless of age, to have sexual intercourse with a person under the age of 18.But kissing someone under the age of 18 (if you are 18+) is legal as long as it isn't over 5 years of age difference.My parents are divorced they have shared custody of me.
