Dear Care and Feeding: A Mom at My Day Care Job Is Randomly Trying to Get Me Fired

And now she’s got her kid in on the scheme, too.

I am the mother of a 14-year-old nonbinary high school sophomore in the deep South, where abortion just became illegal, and I am terrified that birth control is next. My child is not sexually active or interested right now, but I am concerned that when they do become active, it will be too late to get reliable birth control for them.

Hopefully, birth control methods such as the pill, IUD, and Plan B will remain accessible in your area . If they do not, and even if they do, proper condom usage is critical, and your child can and must know that it is a critical way to both prevent pregnancy and the transmission of some STIs.As your child gets older, it may become necessary for you all to seek out birth control for them. Do not rush this, and consider all options. Anyone getting an IUD should be and prepared to deal with them.
