is birth control right? Posted: 05-02-08 15:15pm
i dont really believe in birth control....
i am a single-parent and love my son
dearly... his dads not around, so its not
like im just talking about things i have
no right to..... i just think that birth
control is a reason to not be responsible
for your actions..... looking for some
opinions i guess.... kinda curious if
anyone else has thought of these things...

obviously most people in this forum are on
birth control, thats why we ask questions.
i find you accusation that we are not
responsible for our actions to be
extremely rude and out of line. if
anything im being MORE responsible by not
bringing a child into this world when i
cannot give it the proper care. if you
applied these feeling to abortion then i
would agree, but for birth control i think
you are very mistaken.

I am happily married, I have been for
YEARS.
I refuse to POP out a baby every time I
have sex.
I have sex at least once a day, my husband
and I have a very loving relationship. YOU
think it is wrong, POP out all the babies
you want..
Just don;t get on welfare, medicaid, food
stamps, etc.. and expect everyone else to
pay for your kids.

i dont mean to offend anyone- im sinply
expressing my views... its responsibility
to take care of the children you make- if
you cant take care of them, dont make
them... dont have sex- is it that
hard? i have a son, and i AM on welfare...
WHY??? because im a SINGLE mother who is
going back to SCHOOL... you know-- the
people who welfare was made for.... and
guess what-- when i get out of school, i
will be repaying the government for what i
used of it... its there to help people
like me who actually care about the people
who give their good tax money to help
people like me who intend to further
themselves in like and not sit on their
butt and let the world pay for them...
and you CAN be intimate without having
sex...
you want to talk about respecting
people... i have an opinion- i dont take
advantage of the program
i dont believe in birth control because it
generally doesnt PREVENT pregnancy-- it
aborts any pregnancy that may occure
before you know about it, so it makes
people feel better about killing their
kids before you know they are there
try pregnancy prevention-- use condoms if
you cant deal with not having sex

not taking responsibility for you actions?
i dont understand...i am being responsible
by being on birth control because i'm
definitely NOT ready for a child...having
unprotected sex and getting pregnant(when
you're not ttc) is not being
responsible...

"If you can't take care of them..dont make
them, dont have sex is that hard"
.... how did you manage to get into your
position then?...no offense..but, dont
preach to me when you are a single
mother...were you on birth control?...if
not,maybe you should think about who
you're accusing of not being responsible
here.... what in the heck are you talking
about??? clearly you're confused about how
birth control work...it IS actually 99%
effective in preventing pregnancy for
those with perfect use, also..it does NOT
abort any pregnancy, i have no clue how
you got misinformed here but birth control
simply PREVENTS the release of an
ovum...if there is no ovum for the sperm,
fertilization doesnt occur..an ABORTION
occurs AFTER fertilization has taken
place....i think you're confused...there
is NO killing/aborting with birth
control.....

Wow!
I wonder if you became pregnant from being
so incredibly misinformed about birth
control. It PREVENTS pregnancy before it
can even happen.
Maybe you ought to school yourself on some
common sense before you finish your other
schooling.

I think its great for people to have
opinions on things but if your going to
feel strongly about something and express
these opinions to others you should be as
well informed about the subject as
possible (which you obviously are not) As
the previous poster said: birth control
does NOT abort a pregnancy, it stops a
woman from ovulating so that pregnancy
cannot occur in the first place.
Secondly what is your opinion on those who
do not want children for lets say 10 years
after they get married? Should they
refrain from having sex? I think not. And
you say you condoms but do you know
condoms have a lower rate of effectiveness
then birth control? Birth control is 99%
effective when used properly. If someone
is using birth control and condoms its
damn near impossible to get pregnant.
Providing someone is an adult, sex is a
healthy and normal part of any
relationship. Your ideas of simply "not
having sex" are naive at best. Sex IS an
important part of a relationship, just as
important as communication, trust etc.
Edited to add: I probably should have
looked at how old this post was before

Using BIRTH CONTROL is taking
responsibility..
BC pills PREVENT ovulation, NO EGG = NO
pregnancy.
IF you were really going to be
responsible, you could have waited until
after school to start having sex, instead
of using welfare...
I can use the same argument style...
NO, we do not agree. IF you want to have
a lot of a babies, FINE, but I am not
going to stop having sex because YOU do
not like birth control.
