Question Posted Wednesday September 5 2007, 10:19 pm
Im 16/f and me and my boyfriend have been dating for a year. We have sex, but hes at college, so we're not doing it as much. But I still wanna get on birthcontrol, but I have no idea how to tell my mom. She asked me before, but I said no. Now I dont want you guys thinking im a whore, bc Im not. We were dating 5 months before we even TOUCHED each other, no lie!. So can you please tell me about how you told your moms, and what they did/said? Please and thank you!!!
PLEASE only girls that have asked their parents for birth controll, I dont care how your sister/friend did. I want to know YOU. If you say "well my sister did.." Ill rate you LOW.

There was this place where i lived called plan parenthood they gave u birth control for free with out telling your mom or anyone. but they didnt have the patch(and thats what i wanted) So i asked my mom if i could talk to her, and then i told her that i wasnt having sex but that i wanted to get on birth control so if i ever did i would already be on it. i also told her that it clears your face and only makes you have your period for 3 0r 4 days and it helps ease cramps.
So i would asks your mom if your can go on or that you would like to and then tell her about all the cool stuff it does besides preventing pregnancy! [ roxylove's advice column | Ask roxylove A Question ]

Well, I ended up going on BC myself, then got off...then thought i was pregnant once. My mom found out I was having sex and was more disappointed that I didn't just go to her to get on bc rather than keep it from her.
All in all she really told me just tell her when I thought I would be ready. And from what I can tell she meant it...I think your mother would rather you go to her than do it behind her back and risk something happening.
