Let’s face it, we all live busy lives and we tend to forget to use birth control methods. The most common one used on a daily basis is the birth control pill. Other methods don’t require you to take it as often or require protection during intercourse.
But here’s a quick look at why you shouldn’t forget to take your birth control, regardless of which method you choose:
Reminders
1. Children expenses add up quickly
Watching “Frozen” again with my daughter because we paid $19.99 to download it so she’s going to fucking watch it every day until college.

2. In small places, babies can be very loud
Asked to switch seats on the plane because I was sitting next to a crying baby. Apparently, that’s not allowed if the baby is yours.

3. Kids slow you down, a lot
Hell hath no fury like a toddler wants to “do it herself.”
Three hours later, I’m still waiting for her to get out of the car.

4. Lots of fake enthusiasm is required
Most of being a parent means saying “Great!!” when your kid insists you watch him perform an unidentifiable skill.

5. Children can be little sexual deviants
5yo after bath tonight, running around the house shouting “Mom! My penis grew! My penis grew!” #hurrayforgrowthspurts

6. Little demons with art supplies
7. Babies are gross and sad
I slept like a baby!
“Lucky!”
No. Not lucky.

8. Develop new/sad hobbies
Prior to having kids, I never thought I’d consider sitting on my own in the car, a hobby.

9. Kids never let you be cool
*grabs an extra free sample*
“Mommy I don’t think you’re–”
OH MY GOD CAN’T YOU JUST BE COOL ABOUT THIS ONE THING

10. Multitasking is difficult
11. Scream for no reason
Apparently a 2 year old getting her hair washed and an exorcism sound oddly similar.

12. Lower standard of living
Wife: I left the kids with you for a half hour & they dumped 3 pounds of sugar in the dryer trying to make cotton candy.
Me: Did it work?

13. Sleep deprivation
14. Major drama queens
15. So much energy
Kids are just so… so… Awake in the mornings
