I live in a country where abortion and rights to have a procedure done is hotly bldebated politically, socially and al other levels of our human social structure. It has stemmed alot of debate concerning the rights and choices of women and the right to do what they feel is right for them. But in al this debate it has caused another question that concerns the rights of the fathers and may has lead.to.a great miscarriage of representation on their behalf. For instance if a woman chooses to have an abortion the opinion of the father whether he is wanting offspring is brought to mute. However if in a woman chooses to bring a child to fruition and give birth and the father has no desire to have children or take care of a offspring due to many of the same reasons advocates give for keeping abortion legal, due to.econimics, environment etc. all the could bes and might bes. Wouldnt it be as fair to give this father an opportunity to give up his parental rights very much the same way an abortion would if decided.early on. It isnt fair to assume that if this right is given that more.fathers would choose not to be responsible. It just isnt fair to pick a persons pocket for.something he didnt want when the same choice to.terminate or not terminate is available for women from the.moment of conception.

I am not implying to tell anyone to do with their body

How am I seeing what is not there

You'd understand if you actually used logic and basic reading comprehension.  Try again.

No. No man should have the option to MAKE me carry a baby that I do not want! If he wants to opt out of fatherhood then he should take the precautions to not be a father. If a man has sex unprotected he is making the choice that he wants to be a father, same goes for women in certain circumstances...but what if she is on birthcontrol and it fails? She did her part, but the man decides that he won't wear protection because he is going to rely on her birthcontrol..she becomes pregnant. She does not want the child, which is why she was using birth control, but now the man has the option to tell her that she has to keep it??? THis makes no sense to me. MY body, MY choice. I could care less if the father wanted the baby...if I choose to terminate it is my business.

If they don't want to be involved as a father then they should WEAR A CONDOM!!!!

But here is the problem Rose...men opt out all the time. They say they want the baby and everything is fine...then they leave. There is proof of this all through our wefare systems. And child support is no help..My oldest daughter is about to be 18, I have not had one child support payment her entire life. Her "father" gets jobs and quits them as soon as child support tracks him down, he works under the table and he moves all the time. We were married, he wanted this baby, then when things went bad he "opted Out" so no, I don't think a man should have a choice, because if he doesn't want the child...he can just leave.

I understand his idea but disagree. I think when men get the option to carry a child, they can also have the choice to terminate the pregnancy. I understand that, to some, fathers have a say because they believe it is morally right. But you can't make someone carry a child. It's messed up. 

Also the thought of making someone carry a child reminded me of a 'breeding class' like in The Giver.

So what you are saying is that two people have unprotected sex, one gets pregnant, and they should both have a say in what should happen with the embryo? Which of these two people are going to have to carry this fetus in thier body for nine months...endure the stretching skin, swollen ankles, and aching back, and the grand finalee of labor and birth? What if these two people do not know each other that well? Should the woman carry the baby to term and give it to this practical stranger, just because he invokes a parental right?? What if he invokes this right and then when the woman has the baby...he takes off? Now she has a child to care for and no father to take resposibility. This hardly seems fair. I spent time on my externship working at an abortion clinic...and I did not envy those women. They were making a very hard decision, and I heard them all. Some were still in high school, some were still in college, one young girl was carrying her fathers baby. Should these women have to put thier entire lives and careers on hold because someone else wants them to?? It is not the man that will have ot worry about finding a sitter while he goes to school, it is not the man that has to take the child to the doctor, it is not the man sacrificing his time for a child, it is the mother. Therefore, until there can be an equal sharing of the burdon of childrearing (and I am not jsut talking about monitary) then it is the womens choice, period.

i no several woman that had several abortions and the man wanted to keep it,most woman did it to make the man suffer

it happend to me,so sayin it dont hurt noin you could of took care of your child (the father) is bullshit

if you cant handle the responsability stop havein unprotected sex (men and women)

if a man and woman decide to keep the child and she renigs because shes mad at her man then to me its not about a womans body its bein a bitch

any man that cant take care of there child is a fuckin loser that goes for woman to

Strawman.  It has nothing to do with what does or doesn't hurt the father because it's not the father's choice. Whatever her reasoning, whether or not she's a "bitch"(nice stop language, so charming) doesn't matter.  It's HER body, it's HER choice.

thats your opinion,

It has nothing to do with what does or doesn't hurt the father because it's not the father's choice.its both there choice they both put there self in that position

anyone that uses a child out of anger is a bitch and it does hurt the father

No it's not my opinion, it's the law.  HER body, HER choice.

o it's not my opinion, it's the law.  HER body, HER choice.not everywere its not
