No, in the US a minor has certain "fundamental liberties" one of which relates to the voluntary or involuntary use of contraception. That being the case, a physician cannot/will not, prescribe birth control for a minor if she is unwilling. That being the case, a court order is required before a parent can "force" a minor child to use Birth Control.

No, a child has their own mind and if you don't want to be on birth control you don't have to be. You can always say no but then you would have to put up some good reasons of y you don't want to be on it because then your parents will think you are having sex nd won't let you do nothing.

Why are spouses afraid to give joint custody to the non-custodial parent?

Regarding joint legal custody-a major concern is that although the parent with physical custody is living with the child and managing daily life they still need the consent of the other parent for decisions that affect the child. In some cases the non-custodial parent uses that power to maintain control.


Can i claim money from my biological father when he has never been around or paid child support?

I believe your "active" parent would need to initiate and start the process. The money you seek from the absent parent, by law, would be for child support for the active parent to help with expenses that occur with raising a child. I recommend contacting your local Child Support Agency to ascertain what steps your active parent needs to take to see if they (you) can start the process. You can do a search by typing "child support" and add in your city, state. Good Luck! But, be careful in this regard. A growing number of relationships with mothers are being destroyed when the children are learning their mothers did get child support and was denying the father access to his children. There are non government programs to help enforce court order visitation like there is for child support.


Can a parent with joint custody over a child change the child's school without the other parents consent?

I would certainly question the violation of privacy rights by any school that used email correspondence. A "girlfriend" who is not the biological parent. Has no legal or ethical right to information of minor children. If the a parent gave permission, and the school released such information, the other biological parent has every right to object. And the legal right to have it stopped.
