How should I confront my parents about birth control?

Question

I want to go on birth control for multiple reasons but I don't know how to talk to my parents about it. What steps do I take to get there?

Answer

Well the word confront for starters probably doesn't best describe how you should approach your parents. First think about your reasons why you want to go on birth control. You may need to be specific. Then take in other factors; your age, if you have a partner etc. and think what reasons they may have for saying no. Finally consider how they will react-after all you know them better than anyone on here! And if they do refuse don't just get angry that they didn't say yes straight away, consider that they will probably need some time to think about it, especially if you are going to tell them that you are or plan on being sexually active: that's quite a big thing for your parents to digest! 
At the end of the day, they are just looking out for you.

If they won't let you and you are really desperate, I know that in England you can simply go to the doctors or a clinic and you can get the pill for free of charge or relatively cheap (it seems on your age) but from your post it sounds as if you do want to involve your parents in this. Just remember to be open-minded, respectful and mature about it, and they will probably appeciate where you are coming from.
Good luck ( I know it's pretty daunting 😁😋)

Answer

I don't know your age but at 16 I went to planned parenthood on my own and got them and I didn't need a parent.
