Please cite your source for the research. I suspect you are not correct

I know this sounds crazy....but I have been through it all. If she is a good kid, I would consider having her in my home. We live in a beautiful home, on 3 acres and I am completely sane. You can give us the money to take care of her. Check me out at http://www.myspace.com/ccmgirl1989"

You wouldn't want that info?
Anyway, searches on sex offenders do not show juvenile offenders' info. Sadly, that's not public knowledge until they reoffend after age 18 and are caught and convicted.

The point is well taken and demonstrates the complexity of the issue. It is, of course, impossible to predict who will and who will not re-offend and there is no cure. The usual treatment is a form of 'chemical castration' combined with therapy to get the offender to understand why their behavior is wrong.
I still stand by original statements. Teens will engage in sex with each other and this should not usually be considered a crime. It depends on specific circumstances. It is very difficult to design laws and policies that can cover all circumstances. So, the line was drawn at 18, etc.
Anyway, we are way off-topic.
The other posters have a more valid point when they question why the new guy (sex offender) should take precedence in the home over the child. She does not deserve to be removed from her mom and home just because a new guy shows up. The children are supposed to come first. For some reason, parents keep forgetting this.

Agreed. This is a perfect example of a horrible parent who should have tied her tubes if she's willing to dispose of her child so easily.
Perhaps the girl has a friend whose parents would be willing to offer foster care? CCM girl's offer was generous, yet it would force her to leave her friends, school, and community. The abandonment her mother is planning will be traumatic enough for her.
CCM girl 1989:
That's true, it would cause her to have to leave her friends which isn't fair. Why should she have to leave????? Parents who send their kids to these places for the most part are very selfish.
