didn’t see a definition but I’d guess 18
I assume it’s not changing the age threshold for child abuse, just adding to what counts as child abuse.
Texas Family Code Title 5 Chapter 101
Sec. 101.003. CHILD OR MINOR; ADULT. (a) “Child” or “minor” means a person under 18 years of age who is not and has not been married or who has not had the disabilities of minority removed for general purposes.
(b) In the context of child support, “child” includes a person over 18 years of age for whom a person may be obligated to pay child support.
(c) “Adult” means a person who is not a child.
I hope I‘ll never have to see another OccupyDemocrats tweet posted here. Their Ukraine tweets made me puke. Bunch of opportunistic assholes exploiting tragedy to raise their profile.

THAT’S SOCIALISM!!!
I just voted in the Texas republican primaries. I feel so gross. The platform issues alone pushed everything I hate. Plus all those despicable republicans. I wanted to vote against Abbott, because Texas has open primaries lol. Apparently Rick perry is running again?
Eh probably should have posted in gop thread.
It’s a different Rick Perry
Lol really ? Haha.
“It is my hope that the Canadian public will never be subjected to this recipe ever again.”
Not particularly elegant, but not the kinda thing you want to hear from a judge if you’re in the crosshairs.
“Before leaving the courtroom, Gogan urged the women to consider talking to a lawyer prior to sentencing. Throughout their five-week proceeding, the women were self-represented.”
Oof
You sure about that?
