In “Letters to Margaret Sanger, Birth-Control Advocate,” I agree with the third letter from a mother of six children. She should be allowed to use birth control for a few reasons. Financially she cannot afford to have another child, she doesn’t have anymore time to take care of more children, and birth control will help save her marriage. Her husband would rather stay away from her to avoid having another child. –Ashley Scutari | In “Letters to Margaret Sanger, Birth-Control Advocate,” I agree with the third letter from a mother of six children.

| + | Like many people have commented before me, I found the letters to Margaret Sanger depressing but it was nice to see the caring nature of the man who wrote in concern for his wife's health. This seemed to me to be the best example of the concept of a companionate marriage. Thought this letter probably doesn't represent the majority, I feel like the debate about birth control is fought by women and we forget that men are involved. -Kendall Haring | ||
