#13 +1 F your mother's life (I guess that's not the only decision your father took on his own)

#12: the BC pill stops ovulation. if somebody ***** up, then they still ovulate, but it would have no effects on the child. So you're an idiot. #1: You're a ******* douche. Shoot yourself. Nobody wants you here.

F your mom's life!!! I can't imagine what I would do if I found out someone did that to me. 12- The pill can't screw up the baby if you're still taking it after the baby is conceived. That's totally a myth. And it IS possible even after 3 years of taking the pill constantly to miss one and get pregnant.

Hey, #16 and #17, maybe I should be more specific about my post. While physical abnormalities with continued estrogen/progesterone birth control use have been shown to be minimal, there is still inconclusive evidence of harm when it comes to sexual development with continued specific chemical birth control use into pregnancy, as shown in the articles below. I'm guessing the submitter is 20+ so she and the mother probably received a higher dosage of some type of chemical birth control than given today. Depending on the type that was given, that could have raised her risk for some type of problem. I have no problem with birth control or abortion. There are way too many people on this planet as it is. Regardless of any of this quibbling, it's still unequivocally WRONG that the husband would intentionally switch his wife's pills.

Everything he just said is a complete fabrication, I should know, I'm one of the Doctors that he cited above.

#12, could always be the morning after pill. Ya never knowwww

haha funny. well atleast you know one of your parents wanted you...

Proudpariah - I've got to give you credit, you seem to know what you're talking about, at least regarding your second point. As for the first point - missing one pill wouldn't be that big of a problem, but it doesn't say how long he switched the pills, and if you miss even two then it increases the odds of pregnancy for several days, I believe, based on the warning that came with my pills (I don't know about others) to use back-up birth control for 7 days. If the mom thought her pills were working, the dad probably wouldn't have a hard time convincing her they didn't need backup. Also, OP says he gave her the wrong pill - I assumed the one he gave her was some kind of fertility pill. Not trying to argue, just giving my perspective.

Wow... i can't even - your dad is creepy. Using your mother's love and trust for him against her like that. Though i'm sure she loves you as much as your brother and everything but it was still her choice to make, not his. *hugs*

wonder if your mom knows and if so, is she still with him?
