A female United States age 30-35, *abyyyb writes:

Okay, me and my boyfriend really wanna have sex we have been together for over a year, but how do I ask my mom to get me birth control? What do I say so she will understand and not get mad cause I don't wanna go behind her back and get it but I need it. Also, I'm 17 and I've never had sex this will be my first and I know he's the one for me and I know I'm young and all but he really is the one I wanna be with forever. I didn't plan on having sex in high school till I met him too.

If anything, after a year of being him, when you ask your mum she'll probably be surprised that you haven't had sex with him already! I'm also 17 and have been with my boyfriend for nearly 10 months. He's much more independent and mature than any other boyfriend I've had, and beforee him all I'd ever had was a one night stand. My mum was the one who asked me about it, and she discussed with me all of the different types, as I had looked at it all before with my boyfriend. She was relieved that I had talked to her about it and not stressed at all. Theres nothing to worry about, she's your mum, she was 17 once and will probably tell you that she had to do the same thing!

Good luck

Okay, wow, Ivan needs to calm down. You are 17 and you really like this boy. If you want to have sex with him by all means, please use ALL protection available. Birth control and a condom should go hand in hand. Your mom shouldn't be shocked. If it were me and my daughter came to me, I would be so thankful she talked to me. You can totally trust your mother.

 ivanichiaynus agony auntIn most states what you are planning to do is illegal as you are below the age of consent at 17, so you are asking your mum to aid and abet an illegal act, for which she could also be arrested.

Your bf will be charged with statutory rape even though you are willing, because the law regards you as not legally competent to give consent and he could get a custodial sentence and be placed on the Sex Offenders' Register.

Is that what you want?

Ivan.

You need to sit down and have a general chat with ur mom, telling her that you have been in the relationship for 1 year and wish to move things forward and that you wish to practice safe sex you want to go on birth control. In this day and age your mum should be open minded and think what is best for you - to keep you safe from sti's and pregnancy. good luck
