The abortion group is full of zealous pro-choice men, while right
next door, the child support group looks like a he-man woman haters
club.

In the abortion group, a pro-choicer is labeled as every terrible
thing known to man and woman. And yet, in the freely accessible
child support group, a "woman's right to choose" is used as a club
to beat up on women asking about child support.

So why does a pro-choicer zealously support a woman's right to
choose, at the same time he is dead silent when men use pro-choice
as a weapon against women asking about child support?

Do you agree that pro-choice means a woman has all the
responsibility for raising a child since she had the right to choose
abortion instead? Do you not care that your pro-choice argument is
being used to beat up on women asking for child support?

Cry havoc, and let loose the mental gymnasts!


I think that if the woman wants to raise the child with no interference from
the man, she should support the child in every way by herself--including
financially. If she is willing for the father to have 50/50 shared custody
(default option) or another parenting plan where the 2 of them sit down and
work out how to make sure both parents are fully involved in the child's
life, then child support (including what dad will need to care for the child
when the child is with him) can be worked out at that time. I don't think
that either a man or a woman should get a legal free ride on the back of the
other.
