Cause a stink over this and watch how fast you will be shut out of her adult life the further and further she gets from your purse strings. You will not be the favored grandparents. You’d be wise to think of the relationship you want with your adult daughter: can she come to you? Does she feel supported by you? Do you respect her?

Tread carefully.

You can okay or not okay it morally, from your perspective.

But do you even have any control over this otherwise? Even if she’s on your health insurance, she’s an adult, no? This is a genuine question, I’m not trying to snark at you. I would assume a 20 year old can get birth control without your permission or knowledge.

Come on. We know this is not true. There are pockets of Catholics not using birth control in this country. Small minority, but you can’t say 100%.


Correct. I am an NFP user (Marquette Method). 2 planned children. No method or user "failures". There is a whole realm out there of NFP methods and research, all scientifically-based. It began with the Billings in Australia. And in the United States much of the research and work was or is being done at Jesuit institutions! Creighton, Marquette and Georgetown (which has had great success helping impoverished women worldwide https://gumc.georgetown.edu/gumc-stories/small-fish-in-global-pond/)

Girls can be taught fertility awareness too, which helps them understand their cycles, to know what is normal and to predict menstruation. It can be empowering.






It doesn’t work so great if you have irregular cycles or short cycles. Plus, the whole avoiding relations at the time where it is the most pleasurable and your body the most receptive. As a woman, you’re just better off opting out completely.

Make sure she uses condoms, too, to protect her from STDs.

My Catholic friend did so much eye rolling about the natural family planning seminar they had to go to. My Catholic grandma had six kids before the pill and "mysteriously" none after.

For educational purposes, she still needs to use condoms due to sexually transmitted diseases.

I think she may feel that her actions are “wrong” and is looking for your approval. Perhaps there is value in telling her, listen, you don’t have to go along with what culture at large tells you is ok/ what you are “supposed” to do, but to trust God and pray on it and make her own decision. Perhaps she’s feeling pressure and needs a sounding board.
