I know this doesn't really belong in "babble banter" but I had no idea where it belonged. I just wanted to know what fellow babblers thought about this.
Was having a conversation with a friend today about "her body, her choice" and it kind of morphed into discussing an interesting hypothetical.
Say there's a teenage couple that get drunk and fool around. Girl gets pregnant and decides she wants to keep the baby. Guy wants her to have an abortion and doesn't want to be involved at all with her or the baby. Should this guy be forced to pay child support for 18 years based on a youthful, drunken indiscretion? We're both "her body, her choice," yet we both agreed that this hypothetical guy shouldn't have to pay. It's her body, her choice and entirely her responsibility.
Thoughts?
