The mother's consent is irrelevant in a statutory rape case against a girl under 16.

No one can give consent for you to have sex with an underage girl. Not the girl herself and certainly not her mother. What if the mother had also offered you her 8-year-old daughter or her 12-year-old daughter? If you were an adult, and if you had sex with a minor child, you can be found guilty of statutory rape.
