Anguish of the men whose babies were aborted against their will: Of course, it’s a woman’s right to choose. But we rarely hear from the would-be fathers whose dream of parenthood is taken out of their hands

I hate this part of the narrative “of course it’s a woman’s right to choose.”

Yes. She could have chosen to abstain until she was ready to have a child with a man she trusted.

Men should also abstain until they’re ready to be married to a woman they want to raise their children. Best way for a man to avoid this heartache.

I went thru it in 1973; never got over it with my would-be fiancée, at Sloan-Kettering in NYC. We never got married after that trauma. I still miss her.

Abortion is Satan’s tool to destroy the family and depower and belittle the father figure. It worked. Look around at society.

I’ve long said if she has choice of taking to term, he has choice of whether to accept responsibility.

I have very strong feelings about the issue of abortion.

While it is true the woman is having the opportunity of continuing a pregnancy or not, it is also an opportunity for the father of the child to have a say in whether abortion is an option.

Many fathers do not want the woman carrying his child to abort. It is their right to object and be heard.

I think we should have a law or laws clarifying this situation. No one should face aborting their child if they do not want to do so.

So what to do. I think every person who wants sexual intercourse and nothing else should be temporarily sterilized until such time as they decide a child between them would be perfect.

Happened to me while I was married. She got pregnant (by me I hope) and aborted it without ever telling me.

I found out about it during the divorce (she was also unfaithful).

I can’t even stand to look her in the eye now.

“A woman’s right to choose” is, in practice, “A mother’s right to choose” to murder her baby daughter or baby son between conception and birth.

This is first and foremost a crime against the babies that the mothers are murdering, but also, it is a crime against the fathers of the babies who are told that they have no legal right to protect the lives of their baby daughters and baby sons between conception and birth.

The future of humankind, and the civilization it built, depends on reversing this.

“He still wrestles with his feelings about it.”

May the Lord choose our mate. Wait on the Lord.
Greatness.

That doesn’t protect the baby’s life.

Of course you don’t hear from them. But don’t be so stupid as to believe they don’t exist. This was a subject of prolife conferences as early as the 90’s. Healing Visions at Marquette University addressed this issue at some length, but unless the “media” reports it, it doesn’t exist.

Stonewalling and the silent treatment here. Can’t look at her.
Solutions?
How does forgiveness come in here??

What are the man’s rights anymore?

Had a friend in the Army that killed himself when his wife killed their child because she didn’t want a baby while he was deployed.
When I found him he left a note, “You killed me when you killed our baby. I hope it was worth it, enjoy your life alone.”

Fathers are treated as paychecks instead of parents and portrayed as being inept and uncaring by default.

That makes it easy to disenfranchise fathers from parenthood from conception forward.

I’ve thought about that a lot. She has shown no remorse so I don’t see why I should have to forgive her.

As for her immortal soul, God will judge that, not me.

But while we’re both here on Earth, she can go to hell.

Please read my statement again and don’t try to debate me. The issue is not the choice (at least not in this thread), it is the imbalance.
