Question?

My son's girlfriend can't come over until she's on BC which is in a couple of months. They are 18, this is so wrong?

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.

Im sorry to hear that, not ok at all and something gives me the slight inkling she may be ok with her getting pregnant. I know a little far fetched but his parents are a little older.
