For the Family

"Congratulations on your baby. But since you want this baby to have all the time and care you are able to give, you probably prefer not to have another too soon." In the past year, 14,000 pamphlets with these words have been sent to Ohio parents in and around Toledo. The sender: Toledo's Planned Parenthood League. Last December, soon after his tenth child was born, William Kunisch, a Roman Catholic mailman, received such a pamphlet in his own mail, promptly decided that a rebuttal was needed. With the help of his wife and the advice of Father Lawrence Ernst, moderator of Toledo's Catholic Lay Councils, Kunisch went to work. The Toledo Deanery Council of Catholic Men agreed to pay for printing and mailing. These days, each new Toledo parent will get two pamphlets, the Planned Parenthood booklet and another from the Catholic Councils that warns: "Never deliberately frustrate God's plan for the peopling of the earth and, still more, for the peopling of His heavenly world."
