Jenny Jones - Dec 1992 - Young Teenage Girls Dating Older Teens

[@h0rriphic]

The fact that mother is blaming her 12 year old daughter for statutory rape is foul AF. "If she throws her morals out the window, any boy is going to do it." What a p.o.s. excuse for a parent.

In December 1992, I had just completed my first semester in college! I was a huge fan of Jenny Jones! However, what troubles me about this episode is its intense focus on a young girl's desire for such a deep relationship. This really points to a dysfunction within the family structure, indicating there's something missing. Young girls at that age don't gravitate towards these kinds of experiences without reason.

[@Misshellrazor]

I was 16 and just had my first baby. My bf was 20 😮 It’s never bothered me until I grew up. My son is now 30 and he’s the best thing ever did. As young as I was he saved my life ❤

It’s so damn weird, I mean I wasn’t alive then so I don’t know of the mindset but it’s still so hard to understand, I can’t believe any parents would actually go on TV with their kids to expose their lives like this. But then again there is shows like Dr Phil that do a similar thing, the only difference being the exploitation was more blatant back then.

[@mascara1777]

The mother has deep seeded issues and warped boundaries to be ok with her 12 year continuing to see a 17 year old. Everything about her mannerisms and how there is always a smile on her face and how much she defends John- it all feels like she is almost enjoying being so emeshed with her daughter and having such poor control over her.

My husband and I are the same age distance apart but we started dating as grown adults. I was in my late 20’s and he was in his 30’s. 12 and 17 is just not ok! Way too much of an age gap! 12 year olds should not be s*xually active. They are still children for god’a sake! How can the mom be ok with this? This would be considered R nowadays.

[@heatherlynn716]

Its a maturity situation 12 is not mature enough to do all the mature things a 17 yr old is wanting to do but i cant say anything I was 17 when i started going with my husband he was 22 and I'm 40 and still with him hes always been my true love ❤️

[@sokawai5]

She clearly was mature.

[@LatriciaJohnson]

Heartbreaking. I was 12, and my boyfriend was 17, and I was so dumb and stupid, thinking I knew everything, not knowing he was taking advantage of my immaturity. At 13, I was like, what the F am I doing? I wish I never met him. By the time he turned 18 and a half, he died of natural causes. I always think about how he had to be accountable on judgment day and how he truly took my innocence away. I hope he prayed for forgiveness cause I know I did.

What is WRONG with that mother? It seems like both parents just love John and don't really care about Danielle at all, which is most likely why she is doing what she is doing. Also, Danielle can't get, at her age, that John is using her. That's what older guys who go for little girls want, someone to serve their needs. Young girls are more likely to do what they are told to. Pretty rich that the guy having sex with a child is pissed off about the rumors about her! Both of those girls need counseling.
