Here are some details on this one.....I dated this girl a couple of times. I told her that I was not interested in a relationship with her, and that i was not interested in children.
She told me that she was on birth control, and that she was interested in some sex....She said verbatim-"no strings attached....sure".
Now, since i have stopped talking to her, she went nuts....30-40 txts a day. No response from me. As well as claiming that she was pregnant.
i have since found out that she was clinically diagnosed with bipolar disorder (which supposedly is genetically linked), and social anxiety, previous to our short relationship.
Now, she is claiming that she will have the child and take everything that i own, strictly out of spite.
She acted normally, and i never saw any of this at first. Now that i pissed her off, she is crazy...i am seriously thinking about pressing charges of coercion, blackmail, and harassment. At the very minimum a restraining order is in line.

She has a baby. Her civil rights would be violated if she were forced to have an abortion. No doc in the world would touch that one. The family may be able to get custody after that but she will be permitted to carry the baby to term. You may be able to get custody but it doesn't sound like you have any business doing that. For your childs sake you may want to reconsider. Her mental illness is not necessarily going to be passed down to her children. If you fathered the child you will support the child If you don't want YOUR child to develop a mental illness, you may want to consider BEING a FATHER. If that child see's him/herself as an unwanted burden to both of you I can pretty well guarantee mental issues down the pike. It isn't the baby's fault that you and she couldn't invest $1.00 in a condom. NO one should grow up knowing that he/she was unwanted even before birth. Don't fool yourself, you are as responsible as she is. And her mental illness is not a good enough excuse to justify making you entirely responsible either. Adoption may be a viable option but she would have to agree. Get a DNA test first and foremost

It's going to depend on a couple of things.
First, hasshe been adjudicated mentally ill by the state and has she been civilly committed to say a mental institution. This deprivation of liberty requires the due process rights of notice and hearing.
THEN, if she is committed to a state institution, she is a ward of the state, and the state can make certain medical decisions. The state will not fund abortions, and so she will likely have the baby. This is a Supreme Court decision. After the baby is born and if she is an unfit mother there are still the requirements of notice and a hearing. If it is found that the child is unsafe and in danger, services will be put in to help her mother. If these are ineffective, and at least a year has passed her rights can be severed to the child. The child can be adopted then etc.
If she is just says there is mental illness (no adjudication or commitment), she can freely refuse abortion and he decision will be upheld.
WHENEVER you are dealing with a question about abortion and government action, as in this case if she is committed etc. The Supreme Court has applied what's called an undue burden test to government actions dealing with aboirtion. When a fetus is pre-viability a government action (regulation/statute etc.) cannot unduly burden the mother's right to abort. However, post viability the government action can completely regulate or extinguish the mother's right to abort.
Hope that is thorough enough for ya!

She would continue along with the pregnancy.
After the child had been born, a number of things could happen. Consent isn't always something considered though, if she has been deemed unfit to make such decisions then someone (parent/guardian) would make them for her, such as what to do with the child.

If she refuses the abortion, then asking if she would like to put the baby up for adoption could be another matter that her family could think about. But it has to be with her consent.

Same thing as when any other woman refuses an abortion. Isn't the whole point of the pro-abortion crows that it's her choice anyway?

Why should she have to abort?
OK, since you explained it more, tell her you love her and want to be with her again (very deceptive and cruel...but), watch how quickly she becomes un-pregnant(I know not really a word). I think she is just yanking your chain so you'll be with her.

just trick her into getting an abortion by saying something like the doctors wants to get a head measurement of the fetus...she's dumb anyway

dude, if ya didn't want a kid, ya should hve used a condom. that's the only way to know for sure birth control is being used. the pill is too easy to mess up i.e forget to take one.

Be glad that this woman is sane enough not to kill her own child. The circumstances of your child's conception are not the child's fault. Do you really want her to do this to your son or daughter?
