They tend to be somewhat lenient when it comes to rape when the girl is willing and the boy is 16.
The CSA are a different matter.

Even if she was, he should get a DNA test done on the quiet. There's a lot of monkey business going on these days (always has been if the truth be known).

I didn't mean that, but the CSA etc. (as you say below) and having to help pay for the kid until s/he reaches 18 (it is still 18?)
Feel sorry for the girl, because she now has far fewer options in life than she otherwise would have had.

Or she may have more, young single mum, right at the top of the housing list (once she's old enough or before if parents throw her out), goodly amount of benefits...
But a 16 year old apprentice gets £3.30/hour. Nominal 9-5 not paid for lunch £115.50 week (less NI?) he's not in a position to contribute much at all.

They will take that into account and only take about 1/3 for now.

Nah. You don't know how this works. She gets free social housing, and he moves in for a bit, gets fed up and buggers off, and she gets another man to f*ck, has another baby, and by the time she's 25 she's living off her back with 5 illegitimate kids all by different men in a 6 bedroom mansion, all paid for by the taxpayer.

So ultimately the taxpayer will pick up the tab for little Johnny not using a johnny.

Surely they should know about human reproduction at that age?
It unfortunately, at least on paper seems he will now hae a criminal record then. My feeling on this is that rather than anykind of penal (haha) penelty, the pair of them should have to go out wearing a banner saying how stupid they have been for a few months, but there you are.

Don't you actually have to be convicted to get a criminal record?
The law has long recognised that there are fringe cases where one of the protagonists ,usually the male is just beyond the age of consent themselves and doesn't make too much fuss if the partner was willing especially if that partner is also close to the age of consent.
The term young mans licence comes to mind but this may not be an official term ,just something I heard many many years ago when a mates younger brother was caught in a compromising position with a 15 year old girl in a bus shelter of all places. No pregancy in that case , A bus load of passengers gawping must have interupted things before completion so to speak.
If the apprentice had got a 13 year old pregnant or he was 17 or older then it may be regarded more seriously.

Are you implying that as this apprentice isn;t very got at DIY that he might not have done this himself either ? ;-)

If the girlfriend was better at DIY she wouldn't have got a man in.

Perhaps they are stupid, but we are much more stupid than they are. Within weeks she will get a council flat paid for and furnished by us + a nice little weekly handout, etc, all at our expense, and essentially, for ever.
Just think what you had to do and how old you were before you got the keys to your first house/flat. I was 28...
