Should Men Be Allowed "Legal Abortion"?

[CinnaSlim]

A law in Sweden proposes to allow men up to the 18th week of pregnancy to opt out of all parental rights and financial obligations. Thoughts?

Absolutely. This will stop women from having babies out of spite and will finally shine the light on the true culprit of unwanted children, which is the woman. I've said it plenty of times and will say it again, there's literally no other scenario you can think of where someone has up to 5 months to make a decision and they aren't solely to blame when they get it wrong, even getting it wrong multiple times.

Yes

I think this is sound, but only in Sweden or countries like it where a mother gets a great deal of help from the Gov. Plus it's cacs so let their family structure be broken up. Over all I'm for it, it allows everyone freedom of choice.

It goes closer toward that "equal rights" stuff we talk about. Why notShe wants the child. He doesn't. She gets what she wants, he gets what he wants.

If he regrets it later, he can't come back into the child's life willy nilly. Just now if a woman decides unilaterally to keep the child, she unilaterally decides to take on all responsibilities.

Not all situations are a deadbeat running from responsibility. Ultimately, your body your choice...your burden

Didn't watch, but OP says forfeiting parental rights, but what about financial obligations

I feel like once this will be legal, it will eventually ripple over to the US. Just wondering how long it will take since the US is so conservative. Or will Conservatives be more willing to allow this than allowing women access to abortions.

Legally the child is not yours. I'll add that to the OP.

Seems reasonable

 

[BaldingSoHard]

I like it in theory, but there's a lot of considerations to be made.
