Today, I'd gotten home from dropping my boyfriend off when my dad said, "Your phone's been buzzing." I had a text saying, "You're grounded" from my Dad. My "Take your birth control" had been going off for a half an hour while I was gone. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my phone went off, reminding me to take my birth control. Instead of vibrating as per usual, it rang. The ringtone had been changed to my boyfriend singing "It's birth control time, birth control time, take your pill, or I'll say it ain't mine." I was sitting in a quiet waiting room. FML
Today, my daughter had just left for a date with her boyfriend. All of a sudden, she runs back in the house screaming "I forgot to take my birth control!" That is not something a father wants to hear. FML
Today, my daughter had just left for a date with her boyfriend. All of a sudden, she runs back into the house, screaming, "I forgot to take my birth control!" That is not something a father wants to hear. FML
Today, my mother asked me if my boyfriend and I were getting serious. I quickly lied and said no. She then informed me that if things ever heated up, she would take me to get birth control. Wanting birth control, I confessed. In turn she grounded me. I'm not allowed to see my boyfriend anymore. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I came back to my house after a night on the town. Thinking the house was empty, we had sex. Just as it was getting good, my phone beeped. It was a text from my mom, saying, "Quiet down. Even your father can tell you're faking." FML
Today, my mom took my cell to work with her. When she got home later, she scolded me for not answering her calls. When I pointed out that she'd taken it, she grounded me for "talking back". FML
Today, I was using my dad's cell because I had broken mine. I was texting my boyfriend all day when my dad needed his phone back. I forgot to tell my boyfriend that my dad would be using the phone. My boyfriend then texted graphically what he wanted to do to my dad. FML
Today, my parents grounded me and told me I can forget about going to prom, Grad Bash, and getting a new car for graduation. My mom was cleaning my room and found a pack of condoms in my dresser drawer. Oh, and they made me call my boyfriend they didn’t know about to tell him it was over, on speaker. FML
Today, as I was driving my dad home, I got a text message. My dad, who doesn't want me texting while I'm driving, decided to read the text message to me. He began to repeat a message from my boyfriend recounting the amazing sex we had the night before. FML
Today, my dad took my phone away because I "had to be texting while driving in order to wreck my car." I was too ashamed to tell him that a huge bug flew into my face causing me to veer off the road and into a brick mailbox. FML

Okay your dad's probably an idiot. Seriously. Birth control doesn't always mean you're sexually active. If you're old enough to drive your boyfriend around (without an adult also in the car with you), you're old enough to take birth control for your own reasons. At least in my opinion. Plus, you weren't texting and driving at the same time. He should be happy about that.

So ... your Dad would rather you were irresponsible & fell pregnant? Is that what he's trying to prove? Fail Dad, Fail.

You're really stupid for actually labeling your alarm "birth control pill"...I don't label mine. However, your dad is stupid for grounding you, no questions asked. If you live with your parents, you probably aren't eighteen and couldn't have gotten birth control without permission (I guess your mom's, in this case). So he definitely should have spoken with her first. But yeah, I feel your pain - my dad practically encourages my younger brother to have sex and would probably kill me if he knew I'm doing it. AND he's a male **** who still lives at home. Great world we live in.

1. I'm 19, and I still live at home. It's free room and board, so I don't have to worry about paying rent, water bills, heating bills, etc, and I can focus on college. 2. I'm on the pill to control my period, severe mood swings, etc, I've let my boyfriend know that in no way does that mean I'm ready for sex (my personal decision, I won't force it on others), and I'm still afraid to tell my dad because I don't know if he would believe I'm not having sex.

If you're young enough to be grounded, you're too young to have sex.

your dad should be happy that you're on the pill. being on the pill is a whole lot better than a teenage pregnancy.

i know alot of catholic parents that are like that where i live.. assholes think getting preggers is better than contraception.

Alarm to take a tablet. Your Dad is being protective - and doesn't like to think that his daughter is sexually active. Hence the gut reaction of grounding you. The Dad is not totally in the wrong. And #202 is right - if young enough to be grounded - you're too young to have sex.

well.. actually she's not being too safe for missing a pill (if she didn't carry her pack with her and take it).

you dad is a dumb ass. just because a girl is on the pill doesnt mean she is having sex. and on another note, would your dad rather see an alarm saying "birth control pill" or one that said "scheduled abortion"

that is so wrong that he grounded you for that! At least you are being smart about it and taking the pill if you don't want a kid. your dad needs to get over it. jeez
