This is where the dilemma comes into play though. Should the father have a choice? He isn't the one carrying a kid for 9+ months In my opinion, if you are a father that WOULDN'T want an abortion, and the woman gets an abortion, well then that is just a way of divine intervention showing that she isn't the woman for you. |
He may not be the one carrying the child during gestation, but he would be there for the child (legally and morally) for at least 18 years (kinda trumps the 9 months). Also, presuming this isn't a rape issue, we're talking about a conscious choice of two individuals to potentially create a child, so why is his voice less than hers should the child be wanted (or, unwanted for that matter)?

I'm all about pro-choice. People need to stop getting in the way of other people's choices that don't affect them in the least. If anything, having abortion be a choice rather than a non-option, it causes less welfare recipients, thus, lower taxes |
Statistically, can you back that up? Do most abortions kill babies of lower income parents?

I'm actually all for spaying/neutering people who cannot afford kids. Have it be something reversible and if they prove themselves worthy, they can at that point have the surgery reversed...but then we delve into "what is 'capable of providing for kids'"
Its all a messy situation do deal with.

I'm not for getting involved in people's business like this. I'm just against murder.
