What the fuck do i care about liability? She's my fucking daughter and i wanna fucking know when she needs my fucking help and i don't fucking want a fucking Target's employee to replace me. Do you know what a girl goes through psychologically in those moments? Sure you don't. Well, it's a lot that and a Target's employee is not what i dreamed of to support my underage daughter when she needs it.

I don't know what you care about liability, I wasn't addressing you; I was addressing a post which specifically mentioned that this situation might leave a parent in a position of being responsible for something they knew nothing about, which I pointed out wasn't the case. If you want to be condescending about how someone feels in a moment of crisis I suggest you find someone who actually brought the subject up; not someone who wasn't even fucking discussing it.

I happened to answer your post because you posted something i wanted to address something about. That's how it works.

You answered it in such a manner as to suggest I had said something to you that you had taken umbrage at. I understand your position about how the girl needing the pill is going to feel. I've been there, both with friends and with partners who needed it, and I've never felt anything but support and compassion at those times. But I responded to a specific post about a specific thing, and found myself being spoken down to by someone who found offence at something that I didn't even mention. That's not how it works.

Well, i apologize if you took it personal but i added at the end of my post:

Sorry, but as i said above i particularly feel for this subject. No personal pun intended.

I chose your post just to say that liability yes or not is not the issue imo.

In a country where a five year old can have a gun I am surprised this thread exists. Bonkers.

I have no problem with Plan B being OTC, although i think FDA needs to follow up to be sure that we know if there are untoward effects from... overuse of the hormone med...

my son and his last girlfriend had to avail themselves to this once... they were trying to be responsible and while I'm not encouraging their sexual activity I WAS encouraging responsibility and in our state as she was under... i believe it was 17, a parent had to request it, which i did... seemed weird it did not have to be the girl's mom or dad.

it certainly beats a late term abortion, by which point i think morally carrying through and allowing adoption would be the better choice, and it also beats the stigma still attached to the (i believe reasonable) earlier abortions that keep women from being saddled with a responsbility that can derail the next 18 years or so...

but like abortion, i worry that some will not think about the downsides and will use Plan B as birth control rather than back up protection only.

honestly, i keep hoping science with come up with vaccines a la that for HPV for the other STDs... sorry, i know there's another acronym now but can't remember it... an male contraceptive would also be a nice development.

it's not an unimportant topic for kids and parents, or for adults who appreciate sex and nudity and the freedoms of the porn industry. and i suspect the ladies involved in adult entertainment are THE people to whom young women should turn to with any questions about how to protect themselves and the pros and cons of the various options...

Do you really think a 15yo girl left alone in such a thing is gonna read and evaluate that? If she's so mature and strong and conscious of possible consequences, then let her do fucking porn if she likes, let her go clubbing an drinking what she wants.
For what i'm concerned, she is going to pay with my money and this alone should be enough to put me in the loop. They are taking your kids away from you little by little out there and you talk about liability. Well, then don't complain if they grow as pieces of shit and go shooting in school or bullying or kill themselves: hold the fucking government accountable for that.

I'd pay a buck to see that.
