My DD is 17 also, I had her on BCP not for contraception, but for dysfunctional bleeding and cramping...HOWEVER, knowing that if the time comes...and eventually will...she's protected is enough for me.  I live in reality...I was a teen mom, having had my 1st at 18...he's now 20 and thankfully is still childless...I love my kids too much to bury my head in the sand and just hope nothing will happen.  My DD and I are very, very close, she tells me (almost--I'm sure) everything.  I just feel I should be responsible and protect her as much as I can.  I only wish I could protect my DS in the same way, instead of just having to repeat over and over...DON'T DO IT if you don't want kids...condoms, etc...
