Im just wondering how much power does the man have in the choice of weather to get an abortion or not. I mean i really wanted my wife to have one because i dont have the time or money, and either does she to take care of a kid. And since guys end up paying for everything shouldnt we have a 50/50 decision. It seems like women have all the power these days.

I think it should defiantly depend on the couple, it is both of your child and both of you will be having the same responsibilities. So in turn it is up to both of you. Go to counseling with your wife let her see all the possibilities and just be there with her when she needs you. Best of luck!

some say the abortion pill is not really abortion

Unfortunatly Tammy most women dont think like that. In fact ive never met a woman that would ever litsin to a guy on this subject. Women will only do what they want to. If they dont believe in abortion then no matter what you say will convince them to get one.

I hate all all the right to lifers are trying to make aborton illegal. I mean humans are growing at a huge rate, and if a baby is going to be born handicap or with some disease like aids then it would be better if it was aborted early. The world doesnt need all the burdens on society. We spend all this money trying to cure disease, why not prevent it in the first place.

But if the baby is going to be helathy and the parents are going to take care of it then sure let it be born, but no point having a child to grow up in foster care or with some crack addict *Censored **Censored **Censored **Censored **Censored * mother.

A lot of women are more humane then you are making them Nick, it would seem that you have had some bad experience. I have talked to a HUGE amount of women who have sat down and talked to their spouse about the possibilities. And yes a lot of times they don’t want to do it, however they talk about it and give their view point to whichever view they express.

What I think is that you have been burned in the past, and now you don’t anyone trust anyone.

I fully agree to you Tammy over here. All fingers are not equal.
Nich you seem to have really a bad experience with women & I have sympathies with you for your Luck. All women are not as bad as you portay them to be . Remember a man is never complete without a woman .
& a man requires a woman more than a woman requires a man.Anyways its very debatable topic. But I fully agree with Tammy over here.

Default Abortion should be a choice not a compulsion
Hello Tech guy,

Giving birth to a baby is a pleasure to every woman as it is an intrinsic part of them. Geeting foetus aborted over and over again is not only harmful to the female reproductive system but also to the psyche. If you and your wife feel that you don't have enough money and time to be dad and mom, its best that you take up strong and effective birth control measures.

And yes, remember, being parents doesn't just require money and time. It's a very significant part of life and should be given equal importance as work.
Set your priorities in life first and then take the decision of keeping or aborting the baby. But believe it or not, it's really an altogether different feeling to see your creation on this planet.

Think 1000 times before you leap as a baby aborted means a feeling killed and wasted.

Keep living!!!
Nancy

Default Think Again
Think again before you decide anything..........An abortion depends on both the would be father and mother........both should have a say in this and the descision of both should be taken into consideration............No one should have a say alone ........Secondly abortion is a serious issue ...it is not a whim or fancy...Come on we are taking about a life here........Think of the pro's and con's .sit and talk and then come to a descision ...

but is it a life kindheart?

Isnt that debate over this whole abortion debate, weather a fetus is a real human likfe that can think and feel or not. Personally i dont believe it is.

Tech Guy, i dont really have any advise to give you except think hard about this decision.
