A man's right to choose.

My point is quite simply that the penalties for make a 'mistake' aren't equal. Either way, carrying the child or aborting it, a woman is going to be exposed to more potential harm. Saying that a man should just be able to wash his hands of the situation and walk away isn't good for society as a whole. The woman didn't create the situation, alone, nor should the situation be solely her responsibility.

For the selfish among you, maybe this will make some sense. Do you really want to be kicking in to support more children of single mothers, when those children should be supported by the people who made them? That's the outcome that you're advocating. More money out of your own pockets.

I am against it from that aspect as well, but not against it from an illegal standpoint.

A woman already has that responsibility alone. It's her choice to carry it or not. The man can say nothing about that. This is giving a voice to the man to refuse to take part in what happens after she is done carrying instead of being held hostage.

We are already kicking money into the pot for this reason. Look at your situation where he didn't pay, all the court fees that go along with that. We spend a lot of money on nonpaying biological fathers. Costs would most likely hold steady once you factor in everything or may even be reduced on the public. Would be an interesting study to conduct to see it's impact on financials.

Hell if women know that they can't entrap guys with pregnancies, maybe they will take more responsibility in who they screw. I have no faith in men to ever do that for any reason. LOL

You may be kicking in some money but you're advocating a situation in which you would have to increase that by multiples, without legal recourse.

In my situation the government, and hence the people, were out the amount that legal aid cost. Nothing more.

Plus the amount for everyone that works the courts and all the fees associated with that for all the multiples of people. The amount going to her lawyer also has an impact.

The people who won't be paying will be the same people who aren't paying now and are feeding our legal system.

I really doubt you would see an impact on our costs.

All dealt with in batch. Negligible cost per individual case, to the order to pay.

Not quite. If what you suggest comes to pass then men who father children, out of wedlock, would be able to wash their hands of it entirely. Right now, in many US jurisdictions, men who don't pay support orders can have their income be subject to garnishee, have their drivers licenses suspended, or perhaps even be jailed for contempt. The money can be obtained from the actual cause, rather than coming from all other taxpayers.

Funny thing is that when my father ultimately left the Province, hoping to get away from the Ontario support order, he moved to the only Province in Canada that actively pursued deadbeat parents. They put the screws to him faster than Ontario would have. The whole thing was handled by phone and within 2 weeks his pay was being docked, at source.

Theres enough humans now. We cant even support all the ones alive now. A reset will eventually have to happen.

How about having tube tieing facilities around every corner like these fast service dentist companies. Bitches need to stop having loads blown into them.

Having a kid should be completely about selfishness IMO, if you are too selfish or your partner is too selfish, then maybe it isn't the best idea to have one and then be forced to deal with each other for a long ass time because of the kid.

Two things, to that; as I've said before the man isn't put through the same physical compromises and the kid didn't ask to be conceived, so why penalize the kid?
