Layers

Sometimes it feels like discussing the subject of pregnancy is barely scratching the surface of the problems our clients are facing. If that topic is well understood, we try to move on to birth control, because that can also be so harmful to women and they don't realize it. After that is the important subject of abstinence. Sex=kids (in the natural course of things) and so if it's not a good time for kids, it's not a good time for sex. Not to mention all the other ways premarital sex can hurt women.

It takes many steps to bring someone back to a healthy understanding of life and relationships and I wish we were able to go this deep with all our clients. We could all use wisdom from people who know a better way than the one we are taking, so likewise with these women who do not realize they deserve much better than they have. At one layer or another though, we can work on communicating that to anyone who comes into our life.
