No one should tell a woman what she can and can't do regarding her body. If a man does not want to live up to his responsibilities and rights as a parent, he will find a way not to anyway without having any say in the matter of abortion.

I am of the belief that abortion should not be used as a means of birth control, yet in saying that I will not judge any woman who decides for her own personal reasons to terminate a pregnancy. It is easy to say that there are other alternatives but until you have walked in the shoes of someone facing such a decision any discussion IMO is moot.


That ^^ sums up my views on the subject. I believe a woman has a right to choose whether to have an abortion...although I don't want anyone to make such a decision lightly, or to view abortion as an easy form of birth control.
