Carmelo Spada: Focus birth control expenditures on better education

Re “Easier access to birth control on its way” (Page 4A, Jan. 9): The article was very interesting, and hopefully very soon women will be able to access birth control. In my opinion, women and their partners should get some sex education! There are many ways to achieve satisfaction without using birth control devices. Spend the money to educate those wishing to control conception.
