Topic : 07/06 Baby Wars

It's encouraging to know this issue is finally being addressed. It is about time! 

I agree men too should be entitled to opting out of parenthood. 

It's really not fair to offer it to women and not men. 

Matt is willing kill his child to ensure he gets to spend $$ he earns the way he wants to.  People are supporting this???

If Matt had his way his ex-girlfriend would have gotten an abortion.  This would have saved him the expense of paying child support.  I would like to know what Matt would do with this money that is so much more important then the life of his child.  My imagination is apparently limited that I can't think of what that might be.  Can one of you enlightened supporters fill me in? Or are we suggesting killing a child on the basis of principle? 

Let’s put this in another context:

Give Matt a bill for the next 17 years of child support, give him a gun and sit this child in front of him, give him the choice to pay the bill on installments or kill the little girl.  Which one do you think he would choice?

Post Conception no one really has any rights.  There are no good options.  We can debate the, her body his until the cows come home but in the end once there is a child we either kill it or pay for it.  It is that simple. 

Frankly I don’t think it is much of a right to have the option to kill a child I would rather walk in the men’s shoes on this one.

Today's topic and first guest, Matt, really made me mad.  Matt was a prime example of foolishness and selfishness.  Matt made his choice when he decided to have sex.  He made this choice, each time he had sex.  Secondly, he made the choice when he decided not to wear a condom, every time.    

Matt doesn't really seem to be uneducated about the fact of how babies are conceived.  Therefore he had his chance and made his choice.  It frustrates me to no end to watch him sit there and say he didn't get a choice.    

Next I want to make a comment about the man who said that the "Roe vs Wade" did not have a rippling effect on the nation.  To him I will say:  45 million babies have been aborted since the "Roe vs Wade" decison came down.  I am not saying it was the right or wrong decision; but to say it didn't have any effect is as dumb as saying Matt didn't have a choice.  No wonder they are on the same side.    

I think this man is not a man!! 

He was given a choice to have sex , the baby was created by this action. 

He needs to pay for this baby, wanting her or not.

The intended purpose of having sex in the first place is for reproduction.  So what if it feels good for the moment.  I tell my friends and other young people I know that before laying down with anyone to take a long look at them to see if you would like to be involved with them for the rest of their life.  Accidents happen.  Birth control is not 100%.  Nowadays babies should be the least your worries.  As far as I'm concerned, you're lucky if all you get out of it is a baby.  So the young man on the show today is turning his back on his biological child.....but guess what?  It wouldn't be so easy to turn his back on a sexually transmitted disease, would it?  Just like anything else in life...there are always consequences.  The first time a drug addict tries drugs, he doesn't think that he'll become a drug addict.  Sex makes babies...before having sex, know the consequences.  Don't want to be a father?  Don't have sex.  When you're ready for the consequences of having sex, then you're ready to have sex.     

As far as women's rights are concerned and today's technology I wouldn't be surprised if I see a case in the news where a man's sues the mother carring his baby (who does not want to have it) for the embryo to be implanted into a surigate.
