Does the Catholic Church favor family planning?

The Catholic Church believes that any type of artificial contraception, including but not limited to condoms, the pill, and coitus interuptus.However, the Catholic Church allows Natural Family Planning IF there is a serious and just reason for spouses to avoid pregnancy (e.g. health reasons, etc.).Natural Family Planning is when the woman keeps track of her cycle and the couple abstain from sexual relations during the woman's fertile period..Catholic AnswerNo, as mentioned above, the Catholic Church does not favor family planning if you are using that term as our current society uses it - as a code phrase for contraception and abortion. Contraception is seen as frustrating God's plan for human beings, and this is born out in the fact that nearly every form of artificial birth control out there has serious side effects (they are seriously unhealthy for the people who use them), and not really all that effective. Abortion is nothing more nor less that the murder of one's own child, so of course the Church does not favor sin in any of its flavors. That being said, limiting one's family size - IF there are serious reasons involved that are not selfish nor short-sighted, and in keeping with God's plans, may be done through Natural Family Planning, which, unlike artificial birth control is nearly 100% effective and causes no harm to either the husband or the wife. As a matter of fact it is very healthy for marriages.
