No, no, no... I'm not talking about whether or not it's moral to use birth control.
Sheesh.
No, see, my older brother just got engaged and asked me to perform the wedding ceremony. So I'm wondering if it's unethical to mess with his fiancé's birth control pills before they leave for the honeymoon as a part of an elaborate plot to get my parents off my back about giving them grandchildren.
What do you think? I mean, come on, gray area at worst I say.

Ya know... viagra is most times the same color as birth control... And, I hear that viagra is a tad bit of a stimulant for the female.

It's only unethical if you get caught. If you don't - the only person they can blame is God!
And he doesn't intimidate easily.

Given that the pill can sometimes act as an abortifacient, you are arguably doing her a favor, and should thus be thanked and applauded... at least you can use this as an excuse when (not if) you get caught. Heck, if SIL has been somewhat unenamored by the side effects, she may even thank you.

the real ethical question is whether or not Brentski should be parenting children!!! If you allow this child into the world then you are responsible for taking the pills away!!

And what's so wrong about your parents being on your back?? I mean, come on! We've got 2 years on you! Let's get the baby machine going!!

Scott and I decided that True Love Waits...Forever.
I guess we'll never have kids!
Posted on 8/19/2008
Scott did not decide that.

Now that would just be WRONG!
Maybe you should give your parent Cabbage Patch Kids for Christmas, complete with birth certificates. They can adopt them as grandchildren!

I feel the need to comment on alot of comments here, so indulge me:
D&D Beffy - I like the way you think!
don boscoe - I was contemplating that very same thing!!
Becky, Phil and Hayden - We've been married 6 years and no kids, there's no harm in waiting. Quite the contrary! Scott & Beki - you take your sweet time. Besides, what would my mom say if you had a kid before me...I need you to hold out cause I ain't nobody's momma yet! =)
beeki - too funny!
Cach - now we know who wears the pants in the family!
As funny as this is, and I've heard some whoppers like my brother-in-law sneaking into the honeymoon suite and hiding in the closet (multiple times...which is why our hotel was not known by ANYONE!) I don't think tampering with a woman's hormones around her wedding is a smart way to show some love. That's just mean.

But Redoody, you're missing the point. The point is not whether or not it's mean, the point is whether or not it would be successful in getting Crackhead and the Colonel off my back without behaving in an unethical manner.
Again, focus on me here. It's all about me. Not about Brentski. All about me.

Forget that plan, Scott.
Your mother-in-law and father-in-law will take up where your parents left off.
At the moment, you're off the hook because of Mark and Sherry.

My bad, how quickly I sometimes forget...
I did address is slightly when I said:
"Scott & Beki - you take your sweet time. Besides, what would my mom say if you had a kid before me...I need you to hold out cause I ain't nobody's momma yet! =)
Use me as your scapegoat. We've been married longer and we're both YOUR age -well not quite, but we'll roll over that hill next month =(
Anyway, I digress. When my mom says anything about grandkids, I just say that if she wants to pay for me to stay home and have babies, I'll get knocked up right here, right now. It's worked so far...give it a try. I think it would be especially effective if you said it. =)

"I'll get knocked up right here, right now."
...Awkward...
