Helpful Note: For me, the patriarchal movement and the quiverfull movement are two different things, with patriarchy being spiritual abuse within the family and quiverfull being the belief that everyone is supposed to have a large family and that the use of any form of birth control is sin. However, because these two movements are often found together, some people only use one name to refer to both. In some of the articles below you may see “quiverfull” used in reference to the patriarchal movement. So keep this in mind…they are not necessarily just referring to the quiverfull aspect of the movement.
