The title of your post does not say enough about its subject. This forces people to click and read before they can decide whether they are interested.

If everyone did this, the subreddit would become unusable.

So please don't do it. Take the time to describe your link, and save the time of hundreds of other people.

In future, such posts may be removed.

When making a title, it's best to assume the reader doesn't know what you're talking about - but don't go overboard with every detail. Then check if there are any words you can cut out without losing any important information.

I copied and saved her post to a MS Word file; no way I am going to let a nugget like this just disappear.

The posters disagreeing saying child support is for the child...I wonder how they feel about women getting pregnant on their own? Is it unconscionable for a single parent to choose to raise a child without a partner?

If its not, then why do the mother's wishes to do so outweigh the needs of the child?

Abortion is an issue of bodily autonomy, and has nothing to the quality of life of the parents/child post birth. Woman are the ones who incubate the fetus for 10 months, and therefore (should) get the final say if the pregnancy is terminated or not.

If you are a man, by consenting to sex you are basically signing a contract that your allowing a woman and her body to use your DNA how she sees fit. Obviously, birth control and sterilization significantly reduce the chance of pregnancy, but with few exceptions, there is no 100% foolproof way of preventing it. 99.99999% is not 100, and men need to recognize this. As a man, if you have sex, there will always be, however slim, a chance that you will reproduce and have to be at least partially responsible for your offspring. Unless your body does not produce sperm, abstinence is the only guarantee.

The issue with allowing a man to opt out of child support, is that there is a lot of men out there that have sex and refuse to take precautions, as well as men who get off on impregnating a woman. A man who doesn't want to be involved in his child's life, given the choice to either pay or not pay support, very few will choose to do so. There is a laundry list of problems that would be caused by this.

You cannot force a woman to terminate a pregnancy anymore than you can force her to have a child. Men need to screen there partners and do their best to prevent unwanted pregnancy, and even then, realize that there is a possibility a few swimmers hit the target.

Wow I guess our solution is to just stop having sex. Nice.
