Father's Rights
Posted: 10-07-06 21:21pm

In response to yet another locked topic, I would like to discuss father's rights when it comes to abortion.

How do you feel about the father's choice?

For example, if a man impregnates a woman, and doesn't want anything to do with the child, would you give him until the "cut off week" (24, isn't it?) to make some kind of legal arrangement with the court system and the mother as to what extent he wants involvement in the child's life?

Say dad wants abortion, mom doesn't, should he get a 'choice' whether or not to be a parent? Mom does...Why not dad? Why should he be forced to pay $ for a child he didn't want?

Thoughts?

because he stuck his thing in someone knowing it could potentially create a child. Sex has consequences, and its too bad if he doesnt like them.

while I do not wish to leave anyone out, this is more geared towards "pro-choice". I'm trying to determine to what extent "pro-choice" is for some.

Regardless, natalia, do you think this hinges on the "parenting can be the punishment for sex" concept? Do you think anyone should be forced into parenting, whether financially or physically/emotionally? Do you think that there are better alternatives, and if so, what are they?

On second thought, and I don't mean this to upset anyone who identifies with the pro-life movement, can we get this topic moved to the abortion pro-choice forum? Mucho appreciatiato... Thank you...

I am pro choice. I think a woman should have a choice-always.
Just because I am not a hardcore advocator of baby killing doent mean I cant be pro choice.

Pregnancy? None. Not his body, not his choice.

in your opinion, does he get a say as to what extent he wants involved in the child's life?


You can't force him to parent a child against his will. You can force (legally) for him to pay for the said child.

If he doesn't want involvement, he has anytime up to the woman asking for money to get out of parenting. After he agrees to support the said child, he can't get out. And if he gets out, he can only get back in with paying back child support first.

the fetus is actually half of his body so he should have a say too.



If the man is forced into parenting then it is like you always say, he is punished for having sex.

actually, dipshit, most states are about 26 weeks. And this statement, as usual, proves you are not pro choice, unless it is your moral choice.

I see nothing wrong with giving men the option of opting out of parenthood in the event his partner conceives a child he does not want. If the woman wants the baby so bad, she can care for it without leeching child support off the guy. As far as a man having a say in an abortion, the outcome won't always be good. If a man had the right to make a woman abort, could he also have the right to make her keep a child she did not want? How would it work for men who intentionally screw around without protection, knock a woman up, and sign away parental rights?

This is an issue i'm sort of torn on.

a bit hypocritical don't you think, same could be said for the woman, she opened her legs knowing it could create a child, as you say sex has consequences, or are you being sexist and saying sex only has consequences for the man.?

honestly unless a man has to carry a child I believe a woman has 85% of the rights here yes a child was created by both but he doesnt have to carry it which allow a woman choice to do whatever. If a man wanted the child and the mothers doesnt she has two choices, have it a give full custody to dad or have an abortion. Now if the father didnt want it and the mother did then she had better get her butt in gear she as well has choice completly cut the dad off(meaning no child support) collect child support and keep the kid, adoption or abortion(which in this case I highly doubt.


If a man has full custody of a child as per a friends case, he is allowed to collect child support from the mother!

what about that is hypocritical? fool.
This post is about fathers rights, and whether they should be able to back out. If the mother wants the baby and the father doesnt, maybe he should have thought about that before his stuck his thing in her.
