Answer
Autumn,

My recommendation for you and your boyfriend is abstinence. I feel that hormonal birth control methods like the pill are possibly harmful to your health. There are so many side effects and risks. Please research this before you start. Please email me so we can talk further. We can talk about telling or not telling your parents. My email address is CHERYL51@aol.com so hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
