"Fort Myers Police says the girl would have faced misdemeanor battery charges, but that the boy's mother has refused to press charges. She wants the girls' parents to hand out a punishment instead. "
Well there's one of the problems right there.
In my mind, it should be considered rape, but what do I know, or not.
100% agree, because what if that were 3 boys doing that to a little girl then what happens ? Just stupid nothing will ever happen to those girls I feel sorry for that little boy and his mother is an idiot I would have all 3 girls prosecuted to the fullest!!!! Maybe I'm over reacting because I'm a new parent I don't know now I'm ranting I'll stop now it just makes me sick!!
