Answer to Question 1

A
Birth control for Roman Catholics is prohibited except for abstinence or natural family planning. Referral to a priest for questions about this can be of great help. Nurses can teach the techniques of natural family planning if they are familiar with them; otherwise, this should be referred to the physician or to a support group of the Church that instructs couples in this method of birth control. Sterilization is prohibited unless there is an overriding medical reason.

Answer to Question 2

intimate
Personal space zones: 018 inches = intimate, 18 inches to 4 feet = personal zone, 412 feet = social zone, above 12 feet = public zone.
