Seriously, it's just sex, which isn't much different than golf. Nothing horrible, painful, evil and violent happened here with these two. There was no suffering, no torture, no blood, scars, or trauma, except at the hands of the law.
Absolutely these two were highly inappropriate, but this boy, now man, makes the same choices now as an adult as he did when he was 12. So clearly, there is something special for these 2, a genuine bond of love that's resulted in a family, a life together and a wholesome relationship.
If you take away all the negative connotations of SEX and just reduce it down to two people's genitals bumping into each other, it's not a big deal. It's just sex. People have been doing it since time began. And if they're doing it willingly and enjoying it, then yee hah, let em carry on, it's none of anyone else's business.
In fact, let me take that a step further.... yeah, so some teens have sex and make a baby. What's the big deal? Yet another thing that's been going on since the dawn of time. I never understood what the big deal is.
When sex becomes a weapon, a force, is used in violence and horror, in aggression, against one's will, and all the atrocities that some terrible men DO use it for, yes, then it's absolutely a horrible terrible bad thing. But when it comes down to consenting people, it's really not such a big deal. It's just sex.
