Since women can have abortions, should men be able to have 'financial abortions'?

Question

Financial abortion - give up all financial obligations to the child?

Answer 1

Men can have castrations.
Or just get snipped, solve your problems.

Answer 2

I think it shouldn`t be that way. I think because a man doesn`t go through the things that the womens body does, he doesn`t really see the baby as a baby until it`s born. They don`t have as much of the initial attachment as the mother does.

I think that men that try and force a woman to go through with an abortion that they don`t want is awful. They don`t have the actual abortion, they don`t have the regret. They don`t have the pain .

I just say no. Having an abortion can be and is probally the hardest thing any woman has done in their lives.

Plus, what kind of person could not want to be there for their own flesh and blood. I think if men can bail on financial responsibility, then a woman should be able to as well.

Sorry my answer is all over the place.

Answer 3

There is no male equivalent to having an abortion because abortion is about ending a pregnancy and men don't get pregnant. Once a baby is born, men and women have equal rights. They can both raise the baby, neither can raise the baby, or one can raise the baby alone. If one raises the baby alone, the other will have to provide financial support - and gender has nothing to do with it. So, there is equality in child rearing because the circumstances are equal. There is no equality in child bearing because the circumstances are different.

Answer 4

If a woman aborts a baby, then naturally the man will have no financial obligations as the pregnancy has been terminated lol.

And not all women agree with abortion regardless of state and federal laws. So using an excuse like that is stupid and ignorant.

Answer 5

i see your point, i am not sure though,


He means that if a woman decides to have an abortion the man has no say in it. But if a woman decides to keep the baby he is obligated to pay.
He is wondering if he can sign away all rights and responsibilites to the child, in the same manner of abortion

Answer 6

well women can have abortions because pregnancy affects her body and helath and men dont have rght to deny child support after child born because not about the woman or the man after child born its about that child and reason states are so harsh about child support now is because they tired supporting kids dead beat dads produce how about this dont want kid and your a guy use condom get sterliized

Answer 7

Women as of right now have a right to have abortions because it is their body that will go through the pregnancy...If she decides to have the child...the man helped create that child and should help financially....I believe it is a bit different...I dunno that is just my opinion...good question

Answer 8

That would depend on circumstances i guess, but financial obligation, as far as i no, is required by law, ie: child support...

Answer 9

you'll never get a straight anwser from a girl because they will give you the its my body bull. they say stuff like if your mature enough to have se, but remember it takes two. Its convient for a women to say its my body and i can get an abortion if i want but if they want to have the baby then you have to pay. overall i would pay because i would never put my child in harm but for a women to say they dont want to have the baby and you have no say then I think we should be able to say we dont want it and we dont want to pay.

Answer 10

By signing over your parental rights you are giving up financial responsibility.Therefore,yes.

Answer 11

No. Once the child is born it is entitled to support from both parents, even if one (or both) of the parents didn't want it to be born.
