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.

Your dad's a moron. He should be pleased that you are responsible and independent. Also, wtf, he'd be cowardly enough to send you a text reading "you're grounded", rather than to sit you down and have an adult discussion about it?

The point is that the girl's having sex. Yes she's being responsible, that's very nice, but it doesn't change the fact that she is having sex, which is obviously something her father doesn't want her to do. Hence the grounding. Saying that her dad is wrong to punish her because she was using protection is like saying he would be wrong to punish her if she had gone out and gotten wasted/stoned BUT she got someone to drive her home. The fact that she didn't drive under intoxication is nice and all, but it doesn't make up for the main point of the alcohol/drug abuse. Likewise, the point is that she's having sex, whether she's using protection or not. And the text was probably just a lead-in to the discussion.

I think it was probably just to be a smartass, because it was her phone that was going off, so when she checked it she would see the text.

Your dad is an idiot. There really isn't much more to say than that. Of course, if you didn't tell him right away that the pill is to help with periods or something, he won't believe you now. I think it would be funnier to throw it in his face how you're a grown woman now, and not his little girl. Just to piss him off. I mean, you're already in trouble, right?

Wow! Yes! That is a GREAT idea! That isn't going to make him even MORE paranoid about her ever leaving the house again...

1. I hate when people say posters are immature or whatever for complaining on this website. If that's how you feel about the posts, why do you read and comment on them. Something happened to her that sucks, so she posted it on the website, that's all. 2. Her father is upset because she might be having sex. That's not the kind of thing you tell your parents if they're going to react like this. Also, it's not something you just bring up like you got into college or something. What do you expect, this; "So, sweetie, what did you do today?" "Oh, I had sex with my boyfriend!" Just not going to happen. I'm sure you meant she should have a mature conversation about it, but that's not going to happen with a lot of parents. I don't think the father would be happy if she attempted either.

YDI for not telling your parents that you're taking birth control seriously what if it like interacted with another medicine you were taking? it's not like that would mean you have to tell them you're sexually active either

if there was a problem with other medication i'm sure her DOCTOR would have said something, as i'm sure they know about it, they had to write her the prescription.

Why didn't you have your phone on you? That was your own fault really.

what does the phone alarm have to do with birth control?
SimpleSimon 0
Girls set the alarm so they remember to take their pill at the same time each day...

Shouldn't your dad know you're on bc? He should be glad you're taking that extra precaution- a lot of girls don't.

Eh, I'd have to fall on the YDI side of things. It was probably a little careless to leave your phone lying around, with a giant alarm blaring "BIRTH CONTROL PILL."
