PLANNED PARENTHOOD OPINIONS?

What is your take on forced parenthood and/or child support?

  • a woman can get an abortion without the mans permission to get rid of a child she does not want,so why can't a man do the same? i ask because i have some people i know going through this now and seem to think it is not right for a man to go to court to challenge his rights to go away in court. i know people who have had it granted without ground for why they want to do it,then they ended up with not having to pay cs or being responsible for the child in any way,so i know it is legally possible in any state with a good lawyer. the woman i am talking about wants to call the man a deadbeat for not wanting any kids with her when she knew it from the start. he told her this in the beginning of the relationship and they used condoms each time. she took it upon herself to stop taking her pills because she did not feel like taking them daily.(her own choice). then the condom must have broken at some point, she tells him she is pregnant and he is angry. in my opinion i think she did it on purpose, because regardless of your religious or personal views, we all have choices in life. she chooses to keep the kid and did not consider the father, then i feel like it should be all on her financially. why yell it is my choice and my body, but you cry that you are too broke to pay for a kid alone? some people do not think when yelling these crazy things and plot to get pregnant on purpose if you ask me. my opinion is that you cannot lay down with everyone, you should not pin a kid on a man or woman who does not want it because we all have choices in our life, it is legally wrong to force someone into parenthood, and kids suffer in the end by making the unwilling parent pay for child support because the child will be neglected and treated badly in the end. if you can prevent all of this then women should consider the father's opinions before forcing a child on him. men should offer other options to help the woman out if you agree to abort or keep the child in every way,do not just leave them for the wolves. running to child support will not make the man want you or the kid, it only makes things worse for you and the kid(s). ( i am not speaking about parents who agree to go with child support rather than exchanging money, parents who agree with going to court together, marriages that dissolve unwillingly for both parties, planned children and situations where someone planned the child and decided one day that they did not want to be a parent) please do not think i am downing any of these situations because child support is very appropriate and signing rights away is in appropriate to get away from what you purposely planned and agreed on in regards to the child.

  • Answer:

    Oh, I think every man is entitled to an abortion, just as every woman is. I think men and women have to take responsibilities for the mistakes that happen in life. I think both men and women have to deal with those issues. Unfortunately, there is no way a man can have an abortion. It's not medically possible. So why should a man just be allowed to say: "I don't like the consequences of my actions therefore I do not want to be responsible for them?" We are all responsible for our offspring. Men and women, mother and father. If a man has sex, he knows what the consequences are. Why treat him like a child? He took the risks. If we have recreational sex, we must take on board the risk of unplanned pregnancy. Only women get pregnant, therefore only a woman can make a decision for herself. Its biology.

yeah the womans carrying the baby but she would have never been pregnant if it werent for the help of HIS sperm. that child is still half of him therefore he has every right to express his opinion whether she shold keep the child or not.

I'm against abortion except for cases where the mother's life is endangered. If abortion is going to remain legal, the father should have to sign off on it. As far as enforced parenthood for the father, nobody made him have sex. He wanted that. They both made the kid, they both need to feed him or her, or agree to adoption.

"then the condom must have broken at some point" You were there watching that? I can almost guarantee you he rawed her. In the right mood, it just happens quite often. I don't know. My advice to men is to either go off the radar or get with girls who are infertile or really into anal sex.

No one made either party have sex. They both knew the consequences of sex I presume. It's wrong for anyone to be thinking, "I don't want to pay for this kid, so let's kill it!" Because essentially that's what you're doing. Taking a human life for the purpose of avoiding financial loss. Don't want to pay child support. Find other means of getting your rocks off that can't get the girl pregnant. Don't make a baby pay for your mistake. As for abortion, I do know lots of guys whose girls have aborted their babies. Some of the girls I know probably shouldn't have told their boyfriends. One of them was a coke head who beat the crap out of her and definitely would not have signed the papers, just so she would have to drop out of college. But I think in most normal circumstances, a guy should be present to sign off on the abortion if possible. The only problem you run into is how do you know the guy signing is the father? It's pretty obvious to tell a woman is pregnant, but she can drag any guy off the street and have him claim to be the father of her kid

Men have no prenatal rights, other than the right to consent. However one must remember, it is not a crime to be a father. The problem is some people are becoming rich as a result of child support enforcement, and some people are dying because of it. There needs to be a better system.

You are absolutely correct. It is long past time men had reproductive rights. I agree with all you wrote. "kids suffer in the end by making the unwilling parent pay for child support" - exactly.

I think it is wrong to force anyone into parenthood, male or female. Women get the right to decide whether to abort a pregnancy, because they are the ones who have to carry it. Biology ain't fair. But I believe men should have the right to sign away their parental rights if the woman wants to have a child and he does not. If she gets all the say about having it, then he should get a say in whether he wants to parent it. Because when the woman makes the decision unilaterially, she also accepte the responsibility unilaterally.
