Fathers should have a say in abortion – Juneau Empire
Every now and then this issue comes up, and the NOW people scream bloody murder. This is a very complicated issue, with no easy answers. But family law on this issue is one example of a society that has gone stark raving mad, turning age-old notions of justice inside out and upside down. This is also related to the paternity fraud issue, which still hasn’t been addressed adequately by the courts and legislatures.
I think we need to start asking for legislation that protects fathers' rights when it comes to abortion. I support abortion only because I feel like I have no right to tell others what to do. If people so choose to live with the act of abortion, that is the weight they have to carry. But fathers have no say in it. Why? Because they do not have to grow the child for nine months and then give birth? Pregnancy is just nine months. Men should be able to have a voice for their child to possibly have 50, 80 or 100 more years of life.
Men must also realize that if the mother does not want the child but the father does, he must be the one to step up to the plate to raise the child and not just say, “It’s your baby, you raise it” to the mother.

Men must also realize that if they want a say in a pregnancy then they have to take an active part in it. It takes 2 to support many pregnancy’s, time off work for a single woman just for medical appointments can be the difference in the rent being paid and her being homeless. You want a say in it then be a part of it. Men are the biggest reason abortions happen, no support not financially or emotionally. You want that 50 % then fine you can pay 50% of then new cloths required. 50% of the dental each child is at least 1 tooth, 50% of the lost wages from exhaustion, morning sickness, pre-natal apts to bed rest to birth , that 6 weeks is not for baby bonding it is for hip healing. 50% of the medical bills. 50% for the loss of 9 months of normalcy + the 1 year of hormone adjustment. That needs to start at conception not after a DNA test. If you want to decide what someone does with their body then you had better be their from the start. Now you dropped 1 cell in someone else’s garden and require them to care for it, you need to be paying for 50% of that care. I hope you are on the bone marrow, list because you could save a life, and if you were to require me to use my body to support a life then I am sure you are doing the same thing, by willing to donate vital organs while you are alive kidney liver a lung bone marrow.
What can a father do if he has tried everything to convince the mother to not have a abortion? She said that she did not want to have the baby because she doesnt want anything to do with it and the father offered to take the baby and he and his family will take great care of it but she still denies. What can he do?
