hm well, im 16. ive asked my mom for birth control before. mainly to regulate my period [its still really irregular and ive had it 4-5 years now] and also maybe to help with some breast growth haha. seriously tho. well everytime i ask her she freaks out and wont even consider gettin it for me because shes apparently convinced that i want it just to have sex with my boyfriend. well ive told her numerous times thats not why i want it because its not. were both virgins and at an understanding that were going to wait AT LEAST a year [which will be next summer] if not longer, and ive explained that to her but it just goes right in one ear and out the other. i know she doesnt want me to screw up my life but she wont even listen to me, she thinks that "oh things can happen and you can get caught up in the moment" and what not, and i understand that but honestly, i was raised better and i have more self control than to just let myself go like that. however explainin this to her does nothing. and another thing, yes i would want to be on birth control when i start having sex.. so i would kind of like to be on it so that when that does happen ill be protected [and yes i know to still use a condom but i have a big fear of them tearing]. but i cant wait till then to ask because if i tell her im sexually active when the time comes im sure i wont be able to see my boyfriend anymore and everything will just go haywire. and she says well "its funny you didnt start askin me this till you started goin out with him" but ive asked her before even like a year ago for reasons concerning my period. im sure of it, but she just doesnt remember. i mean im a good kid and i can talk to her about pretty much anything but she just refuses to talk about this with me or even consider it. honestly though, for now the main reason i want it is for my period. sorry so long, but what can i do?

Ok, well if the main reason why you want to take the birth control pill is to regulate your period, then i would tell her that you want the birth control for that one reason, and that if she wont let you have them, ask her what she can reccomend in order to help you with your problem, with your period and i am sure she will advise something. Plus, if you want you can talk to your mom about trust in her dughter, and you can sit her down and tell her the real reason why, and explain how if you were to have sex with your boyfriend you would inform her, or whatever. I would just tell her what you need the pills for , and i am sure she will reccomend something. Hope i helped! Good luck! :) P.S- Momz mean well, they just want to protect their kids for as long as they can! I have a mom too you know.

Well, you need to tell her that the fact you could "get caught up in the moment", is one VERY good reason she should put you on the pill. Not that you intend to do anything but, it happens.
It sounds to me as if you have a good mature head on your shoulders. Condoms are so easy to get that her thinking the pill will cause you to have sex just isn't a good excuse any more. It is the number one way to prevent pregnancy. It is not the only way.
So I think I would tell her (during a mature conversation) That if having sex was your intention, there are plenty of ways you could do that without the pill. All you want it for is regulation of your period. For now anyway. :)
Good luck.
