Harmfull People (sex offender, crimes, credit)

I have a 16 year old daughter who is about to turn 17 and since she is going to be moving out soon I want to make sure she is picking to right kids to be around! Is there any place I can go on the internet and search a name and see if they have done anything wrong that I will need to know about? I could really use some input. Thanks

I'm sorry to say but you may be in for one very rough road to hoe. Juvenile records are almost always sealed and you certainly will have no access to them online. I am a fairly new arrival to MO but I have heard that the age of consent is 17 (shakes head if that is true) so I would be looking at online information of child molesters in the area your daughter will be living. Hopefully more of the good folks of MO will jump in here with some great info to help you out.

This might help but there is no juvenile info.

Why would you be shaking your head at the age of 17 being the age of consent and maturity? One more year would make a difference? Not likely at all. Either a child has grown up or they haven't and one year would not make any difference at all.

There will be NO juvenile records online at all, unless someone is putting something online illegally. Most records are also going to cost a few bucks. There might be some things online but overall, one won't find anything for sure unl;ess you use something that seeks out criminal records and such.

You raised her, with what knowledge/advice you've instilled over the years.
She is now on way to being an adult, with her own personality, thoughts, and desires.
She may stumble a bit on her path, but it is her lessons to learn.

Sorry, don't mean to sound harsh or such , but,,, if you, as an evidently caring parent , have shown her the rights/wrongs best you can, then its up to her to pick/choose her own compadres. Curious, are you just now worried/concerned about her having the 'right' kids to be around - just cause she is moving out on her own? How has her friends been so far? In any case, upon leaving the nest there, how would you know who all of the people she meets along her journey? Trust in her. She may stumble, humans do such, some more harder/frequently than some, but it happens nonetheless - and she should hopefully learn from such, dust off, and then face new challenges/people/situations. Of course, all the above is suggested per just the post as you have provided. Best to you both.

You won't be able to find out much about Juveniles......BUT if they were tried and convicted as adults (as is the case with some serious crimes) you can get those records. You just gotta know where to look. I have some links on my home computer and as soon as I get off of work I will shoot them over to you....

I give the original poster a big pat on the back! She is a great mom and only she knows for sure as to when to break the tie to the nest.

i have reread your post a few times and wonder if maybe we are going at this not necessarily the wrong way but around the bend so to speak. I'm not so sure that I would be as concerned about the kids that she may be around having a bad rep, etc. as I might want to concentrate on her influence on those she meets. It appears from your post that you have been a caring parent. Hopefully the years of experiencing your guidance will have impacted upon her to the point that SHE will have a greater influence upon her 'new' contacts rather than the other way around. Give her credit for who she is and what values you have set before her.

As has been stated in previous posts, we all stumble now and then. It is how we pick ourselves up and carry on that truly matters. Life is way too short to constantly dwell upon situations that we may have no control over where our children are concerned, no matter what age they are. You be the parent and stand back and glory in the 'good' qualities of your child and perhaps these will 'rub off' onto her newly found friends. I wish you and her the best.
