So, it is correct to refer to “natural family planning” as “birth control” then?

Of course. In fact, properly speaking, NFP is the only true form of birth control, because it allows for birth and requires control. It is not, however, artificial contraception, in that, it does not actively work against conception in an artificial manner. That's the moral difference between then two for Catholics.

So if a form of birth control allows for birth and requires control then it is acceptable to the Roman Catholic Church?
