Sex and Christianty?

Question

I'm 17 and I've been with my boyfriend for a year and 3 months. We are a well suited couple and have never had a proper argument or anything. Anyway, we've done pretty much everything except sex. I don't know what to do because I really want to have it, but I'm stuck. My mum is a serious Christian and thinks I'm innocent obviously wants me to wait till marriage to lose my virginity. However, I'm not so strict on this rule (I'm Christian too). Also I can't talk to her about contraception because of the situation. I want an implant. I have three older, adult  brothers and I spoke to two of them who are atheists and they said I should have it if I'm safe and both my boyfriend and I are doing it for the same reason. I thought they'd be very overprotective but they were so supportive instead (to my relief). 
I want to wait till I'm 18 anyway but what then?! (My boyfriend is respectful and doesn't mind waiting - is just the whole mum situation) I fear what she'll say and if she could stop me seeing my boyfriend. 
Help please :S

Answer

It's your body your brain your choice, you don't have to tell your mother... But if you do she may be disappointed but at the end of the day your her daughter she can't stay mad forever she will get over it! But remember be safe!

Answer

It's your choice. Your mom doesn't control your body.

Answer

I got my implant when I was 16 and it was the best thing I ever did. I live in England and we get them for free for under 18's, and my parents didn't even have to know about it. 
I would seriously recommend the implant, I've had it for over a year now and I don't even notice it's there!

Answer

I'm in a similar situation, I love my boyfriend to bits and he's willing to wait until I'm absolutely sure I want to do this. I want to wait till we've been together for a year by that time I'll be 19. I went to a dr myself and got myself started on the pill because I want to be completely safe and in control of things and it's excellent your thinking about protection and safety too, I think you should go ahead with that.

Anyways, the big thing mentally that's stopping me is my mum, well family. I just will feel guilty for doing this. I do need to remember it's my body and I'm being safe, but I feel completely guilty for even thinking about it.

Ultimately do what you want to do regardless of anyone else and make sure your safe whilst doing it.

Answer

Once you're 18 you're an adult and its your choice. If you pay for the implant and set it all up, your mum can't complain -- especially as you're being safe about having sex.
