Topic : 07/06 Baby Wars

  For the guy thats trying to get out of being a father well i see what he is saying in a way....  If a female was to get pregnant and get an abortion or want to put the baby up for adoption or give the baby away she can do just that no questions asked a lot of the time and the father has no say normally cause the female can lie and say i don't know who the father and the father has no idea until its a little to late.....  But the guy does not have as many ways on there side when it comes to a baby but they know the actions when they play the game regardless what the female says that she cant get pregnant a lot of females say thats so they can have a baby just another way to trap a father in away..... but on the other hand Matt needs to take responsibility that he is now a father it it will never go away no matter what happens in this case....  One day his daughter well want to find him and he wants nothing to do with her or he then might change his mind and want something to do with her and if i was her and found out what he had to say that he didn't want me when i was a baby then i would be like i want nothing to do with you either thats so wrong ........  But Dr Phil i do understand in a way where he is coming from and in a way where he is not......  Why do we have alot to choice from when we females get pregnant and men don't...... see if we didn't want the baby its fine for us to give it way or what ever we do and its not OK for a man to say he does not want to be a father i don't understand there let me know what you think Dr Phil or why its not right  

Read your Bible!  God created love making for pleasure between a husband and wife, not as a recreational outlet.  Animals have sex to reproduce out of necessity; humans have a choice!   Even in a marriage, love making is the icing on the cake, any husband can tell you that when you are fussing with your wife, forget about making love!    Since you chose to unzip, you are responsible for the consequences of  your actions, which this time resulted in the conception of a child.  No if, ands, buts about this! 

i'm just on here to put in what I think about the episode where the men want to reject father hood b/c they THINK they should be able to make a decision.. well they did long time ago, if they didnt want children they should have worn a condom... or better yet, not have had intercourse w/ the girl.. they could also go have surgery done! They are just ridiculous.. They shouldnt be given that choice and leave the mother alone w/ their child! shame on them 

Thank you....very well put. I could not agree more. 

She claims that she did NOT lie.  Dr. Phil read her statement on the show.

She is only guilty of loving a BEAST.  At least she is living up to the responsibility of caring for this lovely child.  I have never seen such a cold and heartless human being as this ANIMAL who has filed this suit.

BOTH parties are responsible for pregnancies.  If a man doesn't want children he has only 1 guarantee.... keep the ZIPPER CLOSED. It doesn't matter WHAT the woman says.  It doesn't matter if she sets out to get pregnant...  he has a choice.... DON'T HAVE SEX UNTIL YOU ARE READY TO HAVE CHILDREN!!!!

Matt's case is absolutely absurd!  If he wins this case, then what other things are men going to be allowed that dictate what a woman does with her body?  He made a mistake, and the girl, whether for moral or social responsibility, chose to keep the child rather than abort or place it for adoption.  It goes without saying that it takes TWO to procreate.  He's a deadbeat and ultimately, a child.  It amazes me that this boy (I refuse to call him a man, because he hasn't earned that status) says that he indeed does want to have children in the future.  No one, not even people who are trying to have children, are EVER ready for a child.  It is a huge responsibility, both socially, and financially, and it is hard for new parents always.  What is he going to tell his children that he actually "wanted" to make?  "Oh, yeah, you guys have a sibling somewhere in the world, but you don't know her because I took it to court so that I did not have to support her."  Does he think his next children are going to say, "Oh, cool, dad, you're the greatest.  You really stood up for yourself there by shirking your responsibility as half the reason that child is alive"?  I think that he should be sterilized and not be allowed to have children in the future if he can't support the one he already has.  The mother shouldn't be punished for her decision, nor should the child.  Pay the child support, and if he feels it's too much for him to act like a decent human being, then don't have anything to do with the child.  But he cannot be angry when the mother tells her kid that its dad would rather act like a college age frat boy than take care of it.  I forsee the guy coming back in a few years and expecting the kid to love and respect him, and throwing a childish fit when it doesn't.    

I am a woman and a mother of 3 and I fully sympathize with the man fighting the child support.  He has a very good point about his situation.  Women do call all the shots when it comes to pregnancy and it isn't fair.  What if a man does want a baby but the woman doesn't?  Doesn't she still have all the rights?  I hope he wins.
