Petition:I am not surprised by the move but what i am surprised is the measure being taken towards teen-sex. Though teen-sex is catching up with the culture, i think it is the moral responsibility of a society to advocate and guide its children on education, childhood, and most importantly responsibilities of life. I would advice the authorities to implement some kind of discipline/punishment so that teens become wary/discouraged from committing sex. Instead of relieving from criminal punishment, i think teen-sex should be treated with heavy fines (money) to the parents, community and charity work to the teens who committed. The charity work would not only give them the perspective of life but also make them realize how lucky they are when compared other unlucky people. Hope authorities take opinions from all sectors of the society and decide on the bill. Thank you rediff for giving me a chance to voice my opinion

Petition:I do believe if this is considerable then Child marriage should be considerable, as still few parents are interested to give married their daugher or son in Minor age as because the girl has affairs with a boy who is a minor. Please consider this case as well. India is country where we believe in family values and system. Which never allow girls to involve with many guys and vise versa. which itself a invitation of a crime in indian families. If a baby is touching fire do u feel fire will leave him by thinking she/he is a baby(Minor). Sex/sexual activities are also like fire... it never understand the person is minor or major. Please don't allow such laws to ammend, where parents will be lossing all there control over their childrens...hence we are going to give birth a poluted society. Please think again.

They can be counselled to channalise their energies in correct activites. Instead of just decriminalising such acts, it should not be made out to be a case where such acts can be carried out by children.Its just sick..

Child marriage is illegal and punishable, but "Non Penetrative Sex" will become legal. (. What is the logic for 12 years, why not make it 6 years, ie., as soon as the child enters the first class!?) "Right to education" is not implemented till date, but the law makers want to implement "Right to Sex" to all children. What a noble idea!!

Now this bill legalises sex for 12 and above.... 2) Medically pregancy and child delivery before the age of 18 is harmful to the girl... now with reducing the sexual age to 12+, it will tend to increase teenage pregnancies. Thus subsequenty, another law wll be passed legalising child delivery for 12 and above

Who would watch or stop to whom with whom, and where penetrated. 5.

Petition:I believe there should be a balance in addressing these issues. The Govt. should be wary of these issues and instead of punishing, the law should penalize the parents with heavy fines (money, fee) and make the kids do community/charity service for a certain period. This way the kids will not only learn how lucky they are to lead such a life and will learn the values of life. They will know what are their roles and responsibilities. For example, making them work at orphanages, making them cater food to homeless kids etc; A kid serving to another poor blind student, will learn how hard students struggle for education and will realize what should be priority in his/her life. Such deeds will teach them many ethical values which they don't know and will change their perspective towards life. I think Govt. should make efforts to make sure that the next generation of the society comes out with basic moral, ethical, and practical values rather than leave loop holes which might have adverse effects to the entire society. Finally, i feel Govt. should give soft punishment to kids so that they realize that it is not the right age for them to involve in such activities.

Petition:Non-penetrative sex okay for 12-yr-old. And how is the law and this bill going to monitor that the sex with a 12 year old has not been penetrative? How is the bill going to stop some one taking advantage of the minor? How is the bill going to prevent teenage pregnancies? A 12 year old does not fully understand nor is fully aware of the consequences of sex penetrative or not. It is going to lead to lot of sadness an unerasable scars on minors mind. It can lead to a trauma that the minors will never get over and forget all their life. We have seen it all in the west. I stand with Child Welfare Committee Raaj Mangal . There is no such thing as non penetrative sex. In English it is called Molesting, and it is punishable. Ministry of Women and Child Development who purposed the bill should think again. they also might have or will have in future 12 years old in the family. I only hope that their12 years old do not come home pregnant.

By allowing them legally non -penetrative sex, you cannot keep them away from penetrative sex. Wht will be the out come of this law is underage pregnancies, more single mothers, stress on the part of females and the ultimate sufferers will be girls.

Wht will be the out come of this law is underage pregnancies, more single mothers, stress on the part of females. Forget the liberty of giving children the excuse to have sex, the best law will be that only married couple should have the right to practise sexual activities, whereas any unmarried male or female, whatever may be their age should not be allowed to have any amount of sex, whether penetrative or non-penetrative. The ultimate motive of sex is the propagation of human race and not the enjoyment. Sex penetrative or non-penetrative at the tender age will create sexual problem at the later stage. Wht i hope is that parents from all over the India should stand against this law.

Petition:Hi I normally donot commet on any issues as it falls on deaf ears. But now I am strongly against this proposal so could not stop myself from commenting. This "could not stop from" is actually is going to happen if these kids are allowed to do what is proposed. Its unfortunate to know that these people who call them wise enough to formulate laws/codes donot see things coming because of such laws. WHO WILL BE RESPONSIBLE IF THE GIRL GETS PREGNANT???? IF THIS LAW GETS THROUGH AREN'T WE IN A WAY RESPONSIBLE FOR HAVING NIPPED THE BRIGHT FUTURE OF A GIRL CHILD IF SOMETHING UNDESIRABLE HAPPENS. OR A LARGER QUESTION, IS THIS SOMETHING THAT IS BEEN FORMED TO PROTECT THE CARELESS ATTITUDE AND RUTHLESS BEHAVIOUR OF KIDS OF RICH AND INFLUENTIAL PEOPLE. I think so.. there is more to it than what we actually see. If we can together stop this from becoming a reality then lets join hands... may be a signature campaign... whatever we do should be peaceful..

The basis of Criminal Law is 'mens rea' and without the same you cant jail people for emotional/passionate mistakes. Can you make a law for jailing people for telling a lie; it is impractical. Similarly jailing juveniles for such mistakes due to sex hormones is also wrong !!!!

Petition:This ruling is right and justified because majority of Indians are already into child marriages and the sort..Except Christians the Hindus and Muslims are okay .. yea some have an problem but they are an minority to marry their kids citing poverty ,affluence or caste or creed etc etc.even at the age of 10.. Mohamed married Ayesha at the age of 9...so I am sure Muslims wouldn't have any problem with this. about Hindus as we are all aware child marriages are an common feature a part and parcel of their heritage and culture..its only Christians who are totally against this and during the British time even managed to forcibly stop this practice...but in spite of all measures Indians practice child marriages openly and also the majority of prostitutes in India are around 12 to 18..and they are paid an premium because of their age factor..if you notice most of these girls/boys are pushed by their own parents or relatives into this chain to cater to fellow Indians wants.. The police is being stressed into areas which are not under their control..the judiciary is getting filled with such cases where they are mere spectators as the majority of the populace are into this..so whats the best way other than to legalise this. .I hope the next step would be to legalize Prostitution which again is an part and parcel of our ancient culture and heritage.

If these law makers are serious there are plenty of things they can do. Make law to bring black money back from swis banks,prohibit criminals from contesting elections, shorten time taken to settle court cases involving corruption charges, implemetn Anti money laundering dilgently etc which would better our lives than enacting ths kind of rubbish laws that destroy our great culture and weeken future generation. let them get to know what great men like swamy vivekananda,subash chnadrabose,Dr Abdul kalam advised youth.

Petition:Instead of legalizing, spend more money in educating in the right way. Rights and wrongs , do's and donts. at that age should be made known to children, they behave responsibly. Children at thi age are going thru rapid physical and mental change. Naturally Children are very curious to know more things around them, sex is one of them, Exposing them to any physical acts surely will disturb them and affect them in their careers. Some who are unable to control could over indulge and ruin themselves, can some one monitor them close enough if they engage in penetrative or non penetrative. LAw should concentrate in education rather than giving them free pass.

Petition:1- Shall anybody favoring this idea like his/her sister/daughter to have any type of sexual activity with a male (teenager/adult). 2- Shall anybody favoring this idea like to accept a girl, known to have any sort of sex (penetrative/non penetrative), as his wife/daughter-in-law. 3- What does sex awareness/ sex education refer to? Must we open colleges or institutes of sex technology. If yes, then definitely our sons/daughters will ask us to get them admitted in those colleges so that they can have sex after getting a certificate from there. There is already a lot of stuff about it on internet and today's children are far smarter than what we were at their age. 4- Shall we permit our children to go and sleep with their friend (opposite sex) for even one night once they promise of not having any sort of sex. 5- Sex is not like a car or home loan which can be done in installments. Once the person gets involved in it, he loses control of his nerves and goes to the maximum. Is it not the start of more legislations in future where even 100% penetration by husband shall be considered as sexual torture. 6- Finally let us differentiate between western culture and Indian culture, modern age and stone age, 18th centure and 22nd century, developed and backward, conservative or advanced etc of which we are talking now and than. I feel every person must seek an answer for himself and decide what is right or wrong.
