I think that in todays society, compared in the 1920's when Margaret Sanger wrote this article, that Morality is not taken seriously as it once was in the past. Immorality is everwhere we look, with the technology, and entertainment that has grown throughout the years.

While it is true that the level of morality has decreased over the years, I do not beleive we can blame it on birth control. Margrot saw how the lower class citizens had no education and to access to comm forms of birth control. In the time that she was spreading her ideas, birth control was used by the upper class as well as the middle class. She saw how the lower class population would continue to increase at a very rappid rate if they were not educated. I do not beleive anythig that Margrot did help to cause the downgrading of morality.
I have to agree. Whit the invention of the birth control it is like we are saying it is ok to have sex before marriage. We like to think that today’s youth is more sophisticated, but I think we treat them like adults because we don’t want to deal with them as kids.
