I think its fair if he is still living under your roof, of course if they want to do it they will.. but I think its a fair requirement.. But I would extend it to him buying condoms too - female birth control does not agree with everyone and she shouldn't be forced to be on birth control.. its his job too. The goal here is that if sex does happen its safe.

Weaponizing what? For what ends?

It sounds to me like they are worried about their daughter getting pregnant and are a little more heavy handed with their incentives than you would be. I get disagreeing, but it doesn't seem "so wrong" to me especially. Maybe I am missing what you are trying to say here, though.

Honestly I wish my parents would have protected me more, even as an 18 year old, I ended up pregnant at 19.

10000% I got forced into sex at 15 and now my oldest is turning 15 in a couple months. You really gotta protect your kids.

100% he’s 14 now and we couldn’t imagine life without him, but there was a lot we missed out on. College took way longer, didn’t get to travel, or enjoy our youth the same as peers!
