In total agreement again spartacus!!
You have to take responsibilty for your mistakes.
Of course, in some peoples minds taking responsibilty for an unwanted pregnancy might mean having an abortion. They may feel its the better option for the baby, rather than a life of poverty or whatever.
I persoanlly think its the easy way out though.
If the parents donīt want to raise the child there are 1000`s of childless couples who would love the opportunity to do just that.
I do believe that abortion is murder but at the same time I respect that for some people thay feel its the right choice.

regarding Kharns posting saying "its a womans body, its her choice", but why shouldnīt that father have some rights?? If he wants the child and is willing to rear it??
I had a male friend in that situation once, he wanted the child and was going to take it and rear it alone but unfortunately his girlfriend didnīt give him that opportunity.
I supose I see thigs from this angle as I was sharing a house with him at that time and we talked a lot about it, otherwise I may have a different view today.
