am i?

Hi i would like to be put on the pill. but sadly my mom thinks it is a really bad idea. but to me i think it's safer. and so i guess my question is if i have to have my parents consent to get put on the pill?

I know that, lately that's all that anyone seems to be doing. i lost my best friends over my boyfriend. i love my boyfriend to death but i just dont have a girl friend to talk girl stuff to anymore. well i feel that i was ready, and i got the courage to have it with him Saturday. it was fun and nice but i got to the middle and ended up freaking out. then my boyfriend said maybe we should wait a few more months so it will be even more special. i am making myself happy by being with my boyfriend. i used to be so depressed all the time until i meet my boyfriend. i am now joining sports being around my family making friends and going out in public more. instead of cutting or sleeping or crying all the time and not talking to my parents. we were safe Saturday and i have taken a test to make sure i am not. and it was a negative which is an awesome thing.

I'm sorry, I dont want you to make a bad decision and you have to regret it. You are young and you have your whole life ahead of you and sex is one thing that shouldnt be on your mind righ now.....its not that important. sometimes its not even that good. I once dated a guy who looked all cute on the outside, he was fun, made my laugh and all that but one day when we went to have sex, I felt like I couldnt even find his penis or feel it. it was bad. just focus on you and your life and focus on making yourself happy. focus on a career or make a plan for your future. I didnt do that and now I am struggling to make end meet and I am only 24. make sure you know what you want to do with your life. ...... if you get prego, you will not be able to handle your life and the babies. My sister had a one night stand and ended up prego with twins. all I am saying is becarefull and make sure you know what you are doing.

well, some birth controls arent safe, some cause HPV and some (if take over a long period of time) will destroy your uterus to where you wont be able to have children. I rather not take it (i am married, so i can so that). I was on the patch, but I didnt really feel it was safe because it is a patch, how is that suppose to work?(i thought) also I was on a Birth Control that I didnt have a period for 3 months and then at the end of that third month I would get it and it would last a week. BUT it didnt it almost lasted 2 months. My friend had sex with her Husband and was on birth control and he wore a condom and still got pregnant. You cant really say that birth control is safe. you dont know who is being safe these days. Dont have unpretected sex untill your married. at least have the guys give you the test results from his HIV, HBV, HCV, AIDS and STD test befor you have sex. YOU DONT TO DIE YOUNG......DO YOU?

I always thought I knew how to stick with condoms too but when you do trust a guy, it perceived to be more romantic, ya know?  I would say make a day of the both of you getting tested at the clinic.. a couple grown-up thing to do (and to make sure he's clean, lol.)  There are some STDs that can be passed even with a condom on (not to scare you.)  & That's pretty respectful of the guy not wanting a baby yet so that you can graduate.  Yeah, I would definitely get graduation out of the way so you can spend time with the baby and not have to deal with all the drama that comes with it at school.
