People don't want what they don't want, and I find the constant assertion of parents that having a child is blah blah blah wonderful to be inappropriate and disrespectful. Just as uncalled for as hearing a person preach a religion you don't want to hear about, or if someone was trying to sell you on the idea of taking it in the ass when you had no intention of going there. It's crass.

Pick on me all you want to darlin' I still think you are cute, and I still love ya ()crap I mean like ya bunches)...
For the record, I AM NOT a parent. I never wanted to be a parent, I never played with dollls or house as kid, maternal is not a word that would ever be used to describe me. (and with my lack of patience it would be considered a good thing that I can't have children) So ptooey!
I am, however, an extreme advocate of responsibility, on the part of both parties. I think an abortion as a means of birth control or a matter of convenience is so unbelievably wrong it's not even funny. I don't think that a person should have gotten into that situation, I think they should have been sexually responsible. Condoms are no where close to 100 percent effective, I'm not even sure they are 90 percent effective when used properly.
Birth control, unless falls almost entirely on the woman, if we are talking casual relationships, why would a man beleive a woman when she says she's taking precaustions, why wouldn't he be responsible and protect himself in any way possible, up to and including not having sex unless he was absolutely sure.
There's no good answer except to ensure that it doesn't happen to begin with.
