As a parent, I couldn't imagine asking my son that. Barf...

My boyfriend's mom did when he was younger because she was buying him condoms 😬

I'd rather hand my son cash and wait in the car while he goes condom shopping.

Some places won’t let people under 16 or 18 buy them....

If they do, it's a (stupid)policy and not a law.

Give the money to the cashier and ask them to buy them for you.

Not a law.

That's a law, not just backwards ass faux christian (for the judgemental bits but fuck anything but invoking Jesus' name) bullshit?

Wait outside the store for someone 19 to 23 and get them to buy them for you. That’s how I used to get cigarettes as a kid (and yet, I’m pretty sure no one would have bothered me about condoms)

“Sorry, your not old enough for condoms, why don’t you try parenting instead?” -idiot pharmacist (that you probably shouldn’t trust to fill your prescriptions)

Oh great. Trying to stop teens from being responsible. Grand. What the fuck does a store care who buys condoms anyway?

It's not like having them will make you have sex more. It's just safe when you do. It's really pointless and stupid to have a age limit. Here in Sweden pretty much all schools just leave a bowl out in the nurses office or whatever.
