True enough RH Bill promotes the use of artificial or modern family planning methods and supplies, however it does not prohibits us, Filipino citizen to choose the natural way.
I believe that this bill wants to promote a good quality life and right to proper health care for the Filipino citizens, for it aims to educate specially the poor and those living in the most remote parts of our country because we can’t deny the fact that they are fully equipped with enough knowledge (though not all) with the proper use of natural or modern family planning method, thus promoting responsible parenthood.
and let me quote some of it's guiding principles that help me decide:
SECTION 3: GUIDING PRINCIPLES
1."Freedom of choice, which is central to the exercise of right, must be fully guaranteed by the State;"
3."The State shall promote, without bias, all effective natural and modern methods of family planning that are medically safe and legal;"
9."While this Act recognizes that abortion is illegal and punishable by law, the government shall ensure that all women needing care for post-abortion complications shall be treated and counseled in a humane, non-judgmental and compassionate manner;"
11."Gender equality and women empowerment are central elements of reproductive health and population and development;"
How about you?What are your thoughts about RH BILL? Lemme know...
