I was eating my meal in the food court and you were a cleaning lady who was bragging about how happy your son is going to be when you bring him home condoms! I didn’t know whether to think you were having sex with him or treating him like a child or both! If your son is over the age of 16 he should be paying for the condoms to go humpity hump himself! Get his ass out and work! If he is over 18 then he should have his own place and his own condoms, then he can screw even more! A mother shouldn’t be buying a condom for anyone under the age of 16 but rather give them sex education instead that might lead to healthy choices! —Didn’t know whether to barf or laugh

“Mommy, this Bazooka Joe tastes like lubricated rubber, and the comic SUCKS!”
At least she’s giving him condoms and not turning a blind eye to her son’s sexual health. And how do you know her son hasn’t had some or sex education, either from parents or school?
tl;dr: Stop sticking your nose in other people’s business, OP.
Jesus. I’d be MORTIFIED if my mom bought me condoms…either back when I was younger or now.
Condoms ARE healthy sex decisions. Power to the Mom in helping her son stay safe.
Buying a box of condoms for your 16 year-old son is no big deal. A pregnant 15 year-old girl, however…
my brother is both too stupid and too lazy to buy condoms for himself, so rather than be stuck with raising their grandchild, my parents chose to keep his drawer stocked with condoms from the age of 16 onward. It worked.
condoms am good, more so the flavoured ones, girs can’t get enough of them, or the filler inside. jsbus, i used to go thru a gross of them a month a few years ago. and now, they are going up in price, like everything else. you would think the things would go down, to promote their use more.
but what can you expect from fucked up governments, who only want to screw you, so you in turn can screw around. giggetity, giggetity.
Just another case of the gubbmint taxing the tail off people. Nyuk, Nyuk, Nyuk. >; )
I’d definitely buy condoms for my kid “just in case”…but my mom and I never actually had “the talk” and as close as we are…I think I’d be uncomfortable with her giving me condoms. Jesus I’d be uncomfortable if she even KNEW I had any! My mom didn’t even think I had seen a penis when I was like 24 and was shocked when I made some joke/remark about something on tv. Good grief!
Ummm…my question is, how does Mom know what size condom to buy?
my problem was never buying those damn things, just in finding elephant sized ones. on the other hand, they made great raincoats too.
You have to be pretty fucking big to not fit a regular condom.
Srsly.
“my brother is both too stupid and too lazy to buy condoms for himself, so rather than be stuck with raising their grandchild, my parents chose to keep his drawer stocked with condoms from the age of 16 onward. It worked.”
that’s some good parenting going on there….
raise a stupid child and shell out and hope to buddy christ he doesn’t end up passing on his dna…. your parents must have spent a fortune in helmets for the kid.
Or.. not, z3 – that might be the problem right there. got a whack on the noggin one too many times…
What better way to say: ‘I DON’T WANNA BE A FUCKING GRANDMAW!’
I assume Mom would rather give the kid condoms than having the kid show up one day in Grade 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, or 12 and saying “Look Mom, you’re a grandmother now.”
The mother obviously caught the newsflash that teens have sex. So she did the responsible thing. Just because she bought condoms, it doesn’t mean she didn’t also educate. Power to her.
This mother is taking better care of her kid than most parents do. Sometimes doing the right thing is awkward but hey that’s life. Suck it up.
