Wow, you guys are being harsh on the dad.

Sorry, but I'm on both ends here. FYL for having a dad that's a general douchebag about your birth control, but YDI for leaving your phone at home. Maybe you wouldn't have been grounded had your dad not seen your birth control alarm. Though I agree. If you're old enough to drive, you're old enough to take birth control.

**** your dad!! ugghh he cant ground you for talking birth control your obviously not 13 years old

the only thing that comes to mind is that you're a **** or *****. who the hell has a ringtone that says birth control pill. how much for a night?

Why would you set your alarm to say "birth control pill"? My alarm on my phone says "pill" when it goes off. My sister's says "BC". Be a little more discrete about it! However, if you're being grounded still, you probably shouldn't be on birth control or having sex.

yaaaaaa at sucks . im on birth control bt imma virqin . its just to help with my period . hold onn ... why is he just now findinq out at you on birth control ?

why wouldnt your parents knoww? wtf you have a bad relationship with your parentsss work that outt hunnn

Dear Lonely_Lez: I really wish people would stop with the whole "You are pro-abstinence? You must be a rigid Bible-thumper!" I'm not religious at all and my affiliation isn't even with Christianity anyway. I am pro-abstinence. I am not pro- abstinence-only-education. See the difference? I know it's possible she's not having sex and the BC is for other things, but I don't think this would've been an FML if she had been able to explain it for a medical reason. Are you serious? You think she'll cut her parents out of her life just because they don't want her to have sex at a young age? Um... no. But I agree that grounding is an ineffectual punishment. I think she should've been punished somehow though. Open discussion is wonderful. Fear tactics are stupid. I agree. I think her parents should've talked with her frankly about this topic long before this moment. I also think her parents probably know better than her, through life lessons, and they are just trying to stop her from making a choice that she lives to regret. And she should have listened. I know so many people who had sex early (even when they did it responsibly) and regretted it for the rest of their lives because the high school/college boy they did it with ended up being a jerk who they never saw again. And the stories are a lot worse when they *didn't* do it responsibly. On the other hand I also know a lot of people who waited for marriage (or a relationship of about that caliber), knew they were mature enough to make that decision with a partner who they wanted to spend their lives with, and said it was the best thing they could have done for their relationship. I just think it's so much more special that way. That's all. Point is, the consequences of having sex young are a lot worse than the consequences of waiting. However, I agreed with you on a lot of things here, so I really don't know what it is about my opinion that you oh so "actively disagree with"....

See here's a magical thing called when your parents ground you, you say **** you and do what you want. It's really quite simple.
