Can he opt out of child support?

Question

Since men never get pregnant, do they have any responsibility for birth control?

A woman can have a day-after-pill or an abortion even if the father wants the child to be born. So she can have careless wanton drunken unprotected one-night-stand sex, with a man she does not love, and can still get away with it, if another human life is created out of her whim and fancy. "It’s her body" and abortion is legalized

So shouldnt there be a law which states unless the women procure a written agreement for child support, before the time for legal abortion is over, she has no right to ask for child support?

You have birth control, use it You don’t want to go through an abortion but cant care for the child either or dont want to keep it? Give it away. And if he wants to sign the paper till after the DNA test, well, go for abortion if you do not want to take the risk

Women are in no way with their back to the wall ever on that subject and men shouldn’t be either What do you say?

"condoms can break, and birth control methods can fail" - Then abort it if u cant get the guy to sign the agreement.
"not the childs fault" - In ALL (ALLLLL) cases of abortions, it is nor the childs fault, including fetal genetic disorders.

Answer 1

Men and women should never opt out of caring for the kids they make. If you can't pay ~ don't play. That statement should go for both men and women.

Answer 2

First of all, you have two people having sex, so both people are responsible for birth control. Secondly, birth control can fail, usually due to incorrect use or lack of consistent use.

Abortion may legal, but that doesn't mean it is right. No woman should be forced to choose between having abortion or not getting any support. Sadly many single young women already feel that this is their only choice.

Also, the amount of child support that most men pay is maybe a quarter of what it costs to take care of a child. And many men who are legally forced to pay child support often do not help care for the child in any way. A mother does not just need financial support; she also needs physical support.

And women are every way with their back to the wall when it comes to the risks of pre-marital sex. Because a woman can get pregnant, her whole future is at risk as well as her physical and emotional health (this is whether she has an abortion, gives the baby up for adoption, or keeps it). This is of course the worst-case scenario. The worst-case scenario for men is that they may have to pay some money each month.

If you don't want to risk impregnating a woman and have to deal with the consequences, then abstain from sex. Or at least, have sex with someone after you have discussed birth control and provide your own form of birth control in addition to whatever she is using. Why should men be allowed to have careless wanton drunken unprotected one-night-stand sex and not have deal with the consequences? That's a mighty double-standard.

And I don't know the statistics, but I have a feeling that the times when the man wants the baby while the woman wants the abortion are rare. In which case, I believe the woman should have the baby and give the baby up for adoption to the father. That's just my opinion, though.

Answer 3

A zygote is not a child. It is not a person.

It is irresponsible for a pregnant woman to carry a pregnancy to term unless she has made prior arrangements for the proper support, nurture and parenting of the resultant child. Such arrangements could properly include an enforceable contract with the biological father (or another) to join her in the provision of support, nurture, and parenting of the child.

Impregnating a woman with whom no parenting agreement exists, can only obligate the man to share the costs of terminating the pregnancy. However, all the risks and costs (not just the direct monetary costs) of the termination should be considered in calculating the equitable settlement of the matter.

Answer 4

If you left him then why do you care what he thinks? Make him take responsiblity and pay child support for HIS daughter. Do not be an enabler. Young women everywhere don't make daddy pay for all kinds of reasons. Fact is if he is half a man he will want to help support his kids. In fact, just tell the state and they will make him for you. The only way I would consider not is if he signed away all rights to his daughter so that you do not have to have him in your life.

Answer 5

No he shouldn't be able to opt out on child support, And its not all the woman's fault, condoms can break, and birth control methods can fail, not the childs fault. Both parents should be liable in that case. (in the point of adoption both parents give up legal claim to the child)

Answer 6

Yes men are just as responsible as the woman. The only sure way to avoid pregnancy is not to have sex.

Answer 7

What if you were the mistake and your parents were trying to make a decision.What would you tell them,give me up mommy and daddy,abort me,kill me ,give me to a stranger that might abuse me.I will forgive you some day,because I will be in heaven and you,you,well, that's between you and God!

Answer 8

Women are in charge of birth and men are in charge of birth conroll. You can not get out of child support. Do not do it if you are not willing to marry it

Answer 9

I agree with Pepper. This question makes you sound like a complete jerk.
