So I was reading up on Natural Family Planning to start relearning it. Every website sites success and failure rates. And I got to thinking ("Uh - oh", as my darling husband would say), aren't the failures really PEOPLE??? I guess it's a failure with respect to the "plans" the couple had, but seriously, how is creating an eternal soul considered a failure?
It's bad enough almost every person who found out about my pregnancy asked if was planned, but even with a 2.5 month old baby I am STILL being asked. Does it reeeeally matter? I mean, she's right there, she can hear you. Would you ask me that if the baby was 3 and could understand you? Sorry this is turning into a rant, but I guess it's just so lame that people place so much emphasis on "baby control" as my grandma says.
(Also, many website that cite NFP "failure" rates as 25% don't tel you that includes couples who don't always abstain when they're supposed to. The true bonus baby rate is 2%)
