Abortion isn't just a factor for an "Accident." There are some women out there who would like to have a child, try and to find out there are serious risks that would jeopardize the life and health of the mother, or the babies life sometimes even both. In those cases the Doctor would talk to the mother about her options and the risks involved.

Abortion isn't something that a woman just wakes up and decides to have as baby prevention, it's not fun or glamorous. It's a very rocky road. In clinics where abortions are preformed they give the women all the information on adoption and counseling . It's a very personal decision on what is going on in the woman's body, if the guy/husband/boyfriend has the means and wants to help raise the child I think that is good for the partner to be showing support and letting the woman know she will be supported in her decision to keep the child or not.

If a man had the final say on what happens to the womans body I think there will be a lot more wire hangers and backstreet abortions being preformed. If I am raped by a man and I become pregnant by him I feel he should have no say to what I do with my body, If my husband and I decide to have children one day and the Doctor says that the baby, myself or both have a high possibility of death if the pregnancy comes to terms I would like the final say.

I am pro-choice on a womens right to decide on the final say on such a difficult and emotional decision to terminate a pregnancy. I would rather have a woman whoever it be who decided to get an abortion after carefully reviewing all options have it in a safe and legal environment instead of either her trying to do one herself (which HAS happened with tragic results) or in some back street alley by a "Doctor."

Regardless of if it is a "mans" choice or not, if a woman becomes desperate or not regardless of the mans choice or I shudder to think the courts choice about the pregnancy there is a chance she might go to the extreme. Pregnancy is the womans choice, not everyone believes life begins as soon as conception. Abortion is stopping a process before it begins, the farther along you are the more dangerous and more emotional it is. We say "Abort Mission " etc, but that doesn't mean we're killing our troops.

The woman has to live with whatever decision she makes to keep or not, both with the physical and emotional requirements that come with childbirth or aborting a pregnancy. Every situation involving pregnancy is very different to each and every woman and should be treated as such, but ultimately it should be left to the woman to decide. I honor the men who support their partner should a circumstance like this arise but it is the woman who should decide, not the courts or men.
GreenAlice Reviewed by GreenAlice on . Abortion I would be interested to know what others think of abortion as it relates to the men involved. We often hear about a womans choice to terminate but what if the "father" feels differently ? Should a man be able to challenge the termination of his child ? Rating: 5
