The first reason I believe the age of consent should be changed is that people mature at different rates. When does responsibility begin? In most states, 16 is the age to get your drivers license. Although you can learn to fly at ages 14 and 15, even children as young as 11 and 12 can start flying lessons. How are these rules and regulations logical? These are only some of the evidence that the age of consent should be made dependent on an individuals control and ability, rather than their birthdays.

The age of Consent is the minimum age in which one can consent to a sexual act. The age of consents purpose is to protect minors from sexual predators. This law has been abused by regarding censual sex; where both the minor and legal age participant agree to the act and it is not forced. The age of consent should be changed when one considers the evaluation of maturity, unjust laws, and varying circumstances.
