Equal choice...... not right or wrong

I think that All Men should have the choice to be father even if the fail to create their own destiny by having unprotected sex.... there should be a legal option to opt out....  

What good is it to the child to have someone who doesn't want to be a part of their life? 

  

Sad,?  Yes, but true none the less.

Quote From: tk_renee

It amazes me that Matt thinks that he should have a choice about what his ex-girlfriend should do with her body..I really think if he didnt have to pay child support he wouldn't care one way or another what she did about the baby...I wonder how he would feel if his mother or father felt the way he does...I can honestly say before I got pregnant I didn't think I was ready to be a mother but I am and I wouldn't change it for the world..when something like that happens your supposed to compromise...he is not even trying..it wouldn't kill him to be apart of his child's life he might have a different point of view. 

no it wouldn't "kill him" but it wont help the child either..... 

so is it right to ruin two lifes because of the womans choice?

04/21 Baby Wars

Quote From: akmhgs

Okay Im 19 years old I met my husband when i was 15 years old and we got pregnant. We took responsibility hes 20 and im 19 now and are raising a 21 month old precious girl!! We are both in school. I am majoring in Elementary Education and my husband is majoring in Microbiology and hoping to get accepted into Optometry school. If were doing so good and can take up for our responsibilites i dont see why anyone else cant. I dont beleive in Abortion i think its very very wrong i dont care what situation your in unless its in any harm to the child or the mother, but there are so many people in this world that cant have children and would do whatever it took to adopt. He needs to step up to the plate and take responsiblity for his child. I mean come on its your flesh and blood. Children are what people live for. Even people think they are so responsible to have Unprotected Sex or sex at that they need to stand up and be a Man. He makes himself look very low . It really shows what a person people really are when they cant even be there for their child. I think that the girl needs to do whatever she can do to keep child support from him. IF he cant be there for the child he at least needs to pay for what he has brought into this world.

If its about paying.... then is that the only reason to keep the child?? 

I think dollars be damned! if its not good for the kid(s)  no amount of dollars will matter

04/21 Baby Wars

Quote From: maggiejo

 I am 21, I will be married for 2 years in June, and I have a beautiful 4 month old boy.  My husband and I were NOT ready to start a family yet but now we couldn't be happier, we are making it work.  Being a parent is the hardest thing I've ever done and it is the greatest joy in my life.  I would love to give Matt a piece of my mind.  It is ridiculous!  If he wasn't ready to be a parent then he shouldn't have been having sex - protected of not!  If he were to spend 2 minutes with that baby, his idea of being a parent would change.  He is being a big baby, so selfish.  I'd like to slap him across the face.

Oh yeah, physical violence... that  will teach him.... 

  

Good Lord, grow up the issue is the ability/ want to either take part in the childs future or not....

Quote From: kaemty

I can't even imagine what that guy was thinking!  He had the nerve to say men should have the same rights as women give me a break, men dont have to carry a babie for 9 months be sick, feel awful and then have to be in labor for hours,  so no men should not have the same rights.  He should have protected himself and not got in bed with this women, even if she told him that she couldnt have kids that is his own fault for being stupid!!  What about all these babies that are brought up with no fathers does he not even think about that!  This is just a way for him and that other  stupid man and his dumb orginazation to get there name out there!!!  How stupid get over it and take that beautiful little girl and tell her how much you love her.
in a fairytale world  that would be Ideal.  but this isn't likely  so it cant be healthy to try to force a child & parent to falsely bond

04/21 Baby Wars

Quote From: hotpregger

 Dont get me wrong, I do believe if you play then you pay. BUT, women do not have to keep a child if they do not want to. They have adoption or abortion, so why cant men decide for themselves if they truly want to have a baby. He is not the only one in the wrong, therefore he should nt be punished. I feel if the woman knows that the man does not want a baby BEFORE they fool around, she shouldnt be able to force it upon him. Besides that how can the baby be happy if its parents arent? The children eventually grow up and they WILL relize that they were or are unwanted. It is in the best interest of the child for the parents not to be invloved if they do not want it. The child will suffer if the parents are forced to play a role. Now if the man decides later on that he made a mistake, I believe he should pay back child support from the time he walked out until the time that he decides to play a role.

finally a letter with thought not emotions.... 

well spoken....  

choose wisely who you lay down with. was a good motto for my mom  and its worked for me so far 

  

I have five children myself  my choice? YES! but thats the man not the sperm donor talking
