Quote:However, there are some things I don't think you're taking into account: at the point at which the child has been born, it's now a person on its own, and thus the responsibility of its parents. Also, by the time it has been born... well, one would suggest that the woman has waived her right to abort (I'm aware this is a bigger contextual issue than I'm making it, but I don't want to be here all day), and so yes, I would say at that point there is something of a responsibility on the father's side to take care of the life he's produced, being that it now is a life. At that point the consideration has changed from just being about two parties, to being about three.But what if the father doesn't want to be involved or pay child support. Shouldn't he therefore also have the right to terminate the pregnancy if the mother has that right?
