Pro-choice. As an acorn is not a tree, an embryo is not a human being.

They should have the right to abort but here is a question for you.

Should the man have a say in the abortion, since he will be obligated to look after and pay for the kid?
Takes 2 to tango.



He doesn't have to look after it, ...



Depends...You have to consider, it will be his child after it is born. If the child is to seek dad out later in life, who knows? It is going to be his child after birth ether way, like wise...if she wants and an abortion and the man doesn't.
There is no say, simply put...it is their body that is being treated but at the end of the day a child isn't there for a month or two, it's there for life. Child support for how long? biggrin

Don't mean to sound like an ass but if we are being real here, seems tiny bit unfair. Maybe if he pleads for abortion and she refuses, he could get it in writing to refute his child support duties. That seems fair to me as cruel as that sounds.

I do think that every woman should have the right to choose what is best for her. No woman should be forced into making a decision she doesn't want, especially when it comes to something as important as a new life.

Someone above made a great comment about how people always recommend the adoption route without considering the 9 months a woman will have to spend being pregnant before adoption becomes an option. Pregnancy is already hard enough for women who want to have children.

I think this is a really interesting question: How much of a say does the father get in these situations? Although it took 2 to get into this situation, the real responsibility comes down to 1 as its the woman's body who will be affected.

Anyway, lets do better promoting safe sex, so that fewer people in the future will find themselves having to make such hard decisions.
