RP Party finders being reported AGAIN without so much as a reason.

[Awha]

I have no idea how this topic shift happened but has anyone brought up the insanity defense/diminished capacity yet? It's literally there for those who have mental health issues in court to say that they weren't sane/aware enough to know what they were doing. Idk why it's being ignored and if it was brought up already then apologies for missing it.

There's no guarantee you'll be granted it but that's life with the law. There's no guarantees unless you're famous/disgustingly rich.

To do a degree saying someone who is non neurotypical is insane opens up another ball of wax.

Neurotypical adults can also be manipulated and fall prey to deception. If a law is broken they have recourse as do non neurotypical adults. Children are treated different than adults for a good reason. Although, depending on the age, the severity of the law broken and mitigating circumstances they can be tried as an adult.

However, this is a game and this topic is essentially about ERP. ERP with children is not okay. Full stop.

Someone before brought up the legal context again which opened up the can of worms. Though generally when it comes to sexual related crimes between adult and minor often times the actions of the minor are not really considered in the grand scope. Mainly is a byproduct of our overworked legal system and staff and general lack of understanding of the scope of non nurotypical interactions play out. That is also a issue with our society.
