Should men bear the responsibility of raising their child?

Question

I don't think so. I think we move on with our lives after creating it and leave it to the woman?

This is how nature intended.

Answer 1

Yes you do look the type of person who would say that.Is that really you in the picture? Somehow i think you may have trouble finding a woman who would even want to be impregnated by you.........

Answer 2

You male chauvenist pig. Raising a child deserves both a mother and a father. Without a father figure in a girls life, she is more likey going to try and find male attention somewhere else, and not in a good way. She won't be able to distinguish what love really is, and chances are might end up pregnant as a teenager. Boys won't have a father figure in their life and won't be able to have a role model to look after. And, you are then leaving behind your wife. She is raising your poor little kids by herself, cleaning the house, and so on. Don't expect to get a lot of sex, then. Hell if my husband decided to make me raise kids and clean the house and crap, I wouldn't put out. Not only that, your kids might grow up to resent you, and I wouldn't blame them.

Answer 3

The Ideal for children is one parent of each sex in a loving home. Unfortunately we now live in a society where it's popular to prefer self rather than nurture and look after the people around us. If the dad is a rubbish dad then the child is better off with Mum and visa versa.

Answer 4

It depends - ordinarily, yes, I would say you should take some responsility. However, I feel very strongly that women who stitch men up by "accidentally" getting pregnant should accept that they may be left literally holding the baby. If a man asks a woman is she is on the pill, she says yes but is lying - it is unfair then to use that man as a walking wallet for the rest of his life. In the case, the woman deserves everything she gets - sad for the child but she needs to work herself as she stitched herself up.

Answer 5

I know some fathers who are fantastic with their children and in some cases the children have chosen to be with the father I admire a man who takes on that responsibility and don't look upon it as a burden but a joy, heaven help any child you would father not the ideal roll model are you

Answer 6

I think you need to grow up. The child is as much yours as hers. Im here to tell you im 44 and raising 3 kids on my own and i think that im doing a better job that my ex. The kids are more behaved and are even getting better grades in school. So grow up and be a man, be someone you children can look up to.

Answer 7

You must be kidding to think this way? Who raised you...a pack of wild animals? Real men take responsibility for their actions. They don't go knocking up a bunch of women to feed their ego. That's really selfish and cruel of you. And society wonders why there are so many single mothers out there. Morons like you.

Answer 8

Yeah, I agree with you. I also think you need to go down right now and get a mercy vasectomy for all of the fatherless children you may have or will bear in the future. Children need father figures to emulate, don't take that away from them because of your selfish needs and personal desires.

Answer 9

men will never (well....rarely) take responsibility for children from past relationships, and women who think they will are foolish. its a sad truth that if you raise a child as a single mum, thats exactly what you are, the father will never take as much responsability as a woman would in that situation. i guess its just a social convention.

Answer 10

Both the Mother and father should bear the respomsibility of bringing up their child. Why should it be just left to one?

Sounds like you want the easy way out mate
