Most
people agree that some form of family limitation or spacing is
desirable for the good of the family and society. But individuals and
groups–especially religious groups–differ sharply on the methods of
birth control that they consider moral and acceptable.
Couples
that practice birth control do so for various reasons. They may want to
limit or space their children, or to have no children at all. Young
couples often postpone having children so that both partners can work
full-time. Other couples space their children so they can give each
child as much attention as possible. Some women are advised by their
doctors to avoid pregnancy for health reasons. In many countries with
rapidly growing populations, the government encourages couples to limit
the size of their families.
Even
though birth control has gained in acceptance, opposition to the
practice is continuous. Some people fear that birth control encourages
sexual relations outside marriage or that government might impose birth
control. Some religious groups oppose birth control on moral grounds.
Some
religious groups teach that artificial methods of birth control are
immoral because they separate the two purposes of intercourse in
marriage–conjugal love and the procreation of children. Although they
oppose all artificial birth control, they consider natural family
planning acceptable.
