Mom and dad made choices that led to an unwanted pregnancy. I refuse to feel sorry for either of them.

Dad may not have made a choice here.

Obviously we can't know for sure, but this sounds like the type of person who wouldn't tell their SO they decided to stop taking birth control.

Once she's pregnant, his choice is gone.

That's one of the reasons I'm a big advocate of "financial abortions" for men.

Your girlfriend gets pregnant and wants to keep the kid against your wishes? You should have the right to relinquish all paternal rights in order to not be financially responsible for the child.

I'm 100% pro choice for women. I'd never advocate a woman being forced to carry a pregnancy to term because the man wants the child. Even if he's willing to support it completely. Yes, it's terrible for the man in that position, but it would be worse to force a woman to carry an unwanted pregnancy to term.

However, a man should also have some choices.

A woman has the choice to abort the fetus, carry the child to term and drop it at a safe haven, carry the child to term and put it up for adoption, or keep the child.

If she decides to keep the child, the man is automatically on the hook, regardless of his wishes.

Shouldn't he get some type of choice?
