so me and my mom arent the closest people in the world. last wednesday we got into a realy big fight to the point to wear she pulled my hair and she told me she thinks about killing herself. and i told her she wasnt the only one. i know people are probly going to think wow shes crazy and t doesnt do anything for her but anyway. to the point, i realy want to go on birthcontrol because i have been wanting to hae sex for a while. im no a vrgin but the last time i had sex was 2years ago. i have fooled around here and there but never all the way. i dont realy know how to tell my mom that i want birthcontrol because im afraid that she will blow up on me. i just need someone to give me some ideas to tell her. and she doesnt know im not a virgin. thanks.

The reason being, whether or not you and your mom get along, the decision to have sex is a huge choice to make and your mom should be part of that decision, the reason being, maybe she can tell help you when it comes to sex what to do what not to do. She is older then you and will have more pearls of wisdom. See people assume that parents dont want to talk about sex or it is akward, but maybe if oyu and your mom find something important to talk about, like sex, maybe it will bring you guys colser together, so there isnt always constant tension.
I just think you should talk to her about it, yes she will be upset, and she may bring up the suicide, but she wont do it, as long as you show her you are trying to work on the relationship, case and point, start by talking about maturing and sex.
