The story says the boys MJ molested were ten. I have yet to see a ten year old who is developmentally ready for sex, physically or emotionally. Thirteen and fourteen are trickier; some kids of that age (let's face it) are, ahem, rather mature. The term "jailbait" does not refer to pre-pubescent young ladies. I have a daughter who has just passed through the grin-and-bear-it years. Fortunately in her case the complications were all athletic, as she spent two years trying to keep up with teammates who were well ahead physically. The age of consent is set where it is to protect the kids who develop slowly. As it should be.
