Eighth or ninth grade...that would make this female...approximately 13 or 14. Er...yes, that does produce some negative points. Hm...the actual storyline does sound quite enticing...I would accept it and change the age, if I didn't have a massive story that I'm already working on. Maybe, if you're willing to hold that thought, I could write it once I'm done with the other one (but that's going to take quite some time, I've only just finished part two and the story's just heating up).
As for the child porn stuff, I think sirthumper just made a small mistake-the underage thing was kind of minor in the synopsis, and had I been the one writing it, I wouldn't have thought to put the code in the title. Not that I'm saying Cleo is wrong, just making clear that I think sirthumper made the mistake honestly.
Now that I think of it, when a person says "ninth grade", you don't really think of them as THAT old. After all, one more tends to think of that girl in High School, rather than their age, which makes the girl sound older. I don't have kids, but I would assume that a mother or father would pick up on the opposite-age over connotation.
