"birth control has contributed greatly to breakdown of the family structure and contributed to lessening of the value of human life by society."

Fewer unwanted children/or bastards is bad?
Nope, fewer unwanted children/or bastards would be a good thing. However, I believe the best way to avoid having such children is to not have pre-marital sex, and practice Natural Family Planning after marriage.
I don't know if you're Christian or not, so Christian arguements might not hold any sway with you or be useful in the discussion, but prior to the early 1900's EVERY major Christian denomination taught the artificial birth control was sinful and destructive.
Just what kind of people have 'unwanted' babies? And no baby is a bastard - I know what you mean, but that is cruel. The baby's parents may be - but not the child.
