If the guy wanted the baby

In that case adoption is an option..
But not killing it.... If someone can have sex like that then you can have the baby that comes with it.

 

I hope some people went to jail for that.

 

Probably not. It disturbs me how our government is so anti-herbal medication but continue to prescribe dangerous drugs to us all the time.

 

Glad that I don't live in your world and never will.

 

:iagree:

 

i would never go that far. Im just saying I hope a lot of women have the heart to listen and let the guy have a say before getting rid of it or not

 

In spite of everything, I'm against this.

But a women may have a child inspite of the father's wishes and he is held financially liable.

if a women has an abortion inspite of the father's wishes than perhaps she should be held financially liable.

 

I'm definitely all for that. I would never make a decision without at least considering their wishes. I may not end up doing what he wants if it isn't what I want... but I would think long and hard about everything.

Unless of course he was an evil douchebag

 

i agree with this. altho the emotional attachment seems like it stays with you.

 

i think the decision should lie with whoever's vagina is being split open to get the lil troublemaker out.

 

Hell yes. I don't know how willing I would be to gain 50 lbs, get stretchmarks, massive painful breasts, morning sickness, cravings, nausea, pain, swollen ankles and feet, mood fluctuations, and possible risk my physical or emotional health for 9 months plus if I didn't want the baby in the first place. Oh right, and then spending up to 3 days in labor screaming and crying, tearing open my vagina/getting a C-section, pushing, writhing in agony and being drugged by doctors.

Having a baby is not always difficult and painful, but I sure as hell know a lot of people for whom it was. In the end, it's the mom's choice because it's her body and I would not let anyone tell me what to do when it concerns my life, health and happiness. In many situations it's the right thing to do to tell the potential father, but if you didn't want to be with the guy? Or if you didn't trust him to raise it, or if you barely knew him? There are also a lot of situations where I probably wouldn't even let him know.

 

Replace "vagina" with wallet and the situation is reversed.

you want the power to arbitraily decide the course of his life--

what makes you different than the right wing nazis that want to arbitraily decide the course of YOUR life?

 

Personally I think a vagina is a lot more important than a wallet. But then again I would accept financial responsibility for whatever my choice was...

 

It's 9 months versus 18 years

For myself-- only a fool gets pregnant with an unwanted child.
Fool me once...

 

They are still not interchangeable.

 

I think they should have thought of that when they were having sex..

Im against it..
I know someone she got pregnant and she didn't want the baby but the father did.. And she aborted it.. He will never forgive her because its his baby.. not just hers.. Its wrong. Just because shes having it doesn't mean the father doesn't have right to the kid too.. She didn't make it on her own.

 

That's not the only long-term issue. A lot of women end up with hemorrhoid problems and lasting weight issues, and your pussy is never quite as tight after a vaginal delivery. Not to mention the lifetime responsibility of being a mother. That's a lot to ask of another person.

Nobody should have to undertake all that if they aren't fully committed to it. If motherhood isn't your top priority in life, I think you are better off to leave it alone.

If he got her knocked up by accident, his opinion of her is not going to be the most important thing in her life. She will get over it, trust me.

Since no birth control method is 100% reliable, that would mean no sex before marriage and no sex ever for women who don't want children. Women fought for generations to get out from under that kind of patriarchal tyranny.

It seems that you are not only against abortion for yourself, but for all other women, no matter what their circumstances. Why do you think you are so smart? I don't consider myself that wise, and I'm old enough to be your mother. I hope I'm reading you wrong on this.

 

^ yes
yes
exactly

 

Im not against it no matter what the circumstances are im just saaying that if you are just having sex then you should keep it..
You dont have to raise it... there are plenty of people that would love to adopt a baby that CANT have a baby bc of natural porposes....
Fix yourself... i know birth control isnt 100% im on it and im not sure if i have a little one in there but since i did have sex im not going to abort it..
I think that all babies should have a chance at life.. you did....
Adoption is always an option.
There are other things that can help you prevent from having babies..
Im not trying to sound smart im just saying how i feel on the subject. Free speech forums and im not getting offended by your answers so theres no point in getting offended by mine.

 

I didn't say I was offended. I just don't agree.
