[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you asked her? I [b]waited until marriage[/b] and would have offended if my parents had dragged me to the doctor for birth control just because I was going off to college.[/quote]

Be offended, then. Because if OP’s daughter gets pregnant, the burden of raising the child will fall on OP as it always does in such situations. Not to mention, OP’s daughter might not know yet if she’ll want to be sexually active, but if/when she does in the heat of a moment, she needs to have contraception.[/quote]

Obv OP is going to have a conversation with her adult daughter headed to college to see if she is wanting to get contraception.  Her daughter would say no if not interested and OP has to accept that.

It isn’t hard to get contraception.  And school heath center can provide this if/when she is ready if she doesn’t want to just yet. [/quote]

You can get IUD at college heath center? Or just condoms[/quote]

Depends on the school re: condoms.

You can get an IUD at Planned Parenthood. If you either do not have insurance or want to get one without your parents knowing, unless you can prove you’re very low-income, it’s about $800 in cash. [/quote]
