Real Estate Attorney serving Bloomfield Hills, MI
the law, for very good reasons, sets the age of consent at age 16 and under the law you will remain a minor until you are 18.
first the science, the human brain's development and cognitive abilities are usually only fully developed until you are 20 or so.
2 years ago, on one hand your BF was a minor at the time, but on the other you were 14, as the parent, your mom can press charges
worse for your BF, he might even get charged and go on the offenders' list which could mess up his life for years to come.
the only good news is that the prosecution would have a very difficult time proving what happened and your mom, if she was so worried, should have reported things things then
my suggestion, you need to sit down and have a conversation with your mom; you need to respect her interest as parent and she needs to respect that you are a young woman and come up with a way for you to go together into the next chapter in life- you need to agree how the two of you can get along together for the next couple of years, I suggest you bring her a peace offering of flowers or something nice that lets her know you care.
I really don't suggest burning down the bridges, you will only really understand what family is when the worst in life happens; if you let her, your mom can be a rock in your life
good luck to you
