“No matter how much you like a guy or how much he says he loves you, don't let him take over your mind. Think for yourself, and speak up when you know something is wrong.”

Do I need my parents' permission to get condoms from a clinic or store?
No, your parents do not need to give permission for you to buy or use condoms. And you do not have to be a certain age to buy condoms (there is no "legal age"). The person behind the counter may raise an eyebrow, but he or she shouldn't make you feel bad for choosing to protect yourself and your partner.
