Young Catholic women back birth control use

- For young Catholic women born after birth control became accessible, the national debate over contraceptive coverage is about politics, not their lives.

I was raised Catholic and when, at 16, birth control was prescribed to help control my unbearable periods, there was never even a question as to whether I would follow my doctor's orders. If my devoutly Catholic (like, priest coming to the house to give her communion and hear her confession when she was too old to go to church, devout) Italian grandmother didn't bat an eye, then you cannot convince me this should be a viable angle on this issue.
