While we understand that no one likes to be baited and slammed...

I guess I want to be sure I know what you're saying... And that's that you still have nothing constructive to add to the thread? And just wanted to point out what you consider to be a disgusting unfairness?

Well, in hopes that it will appease you, I'm going to apolagize for everyone who has "trolled" in this thread.

Back to the subject...

After comming back and re-reading this whole thread, I think I kind of want to retract some of my former opinions here.

The previous poster is right, in that there is no right answer... Though, keep it in your pants if you don't want a kid is about the most logical that's been presented to date.

Men should in my opinion have a say in the abortion... Consent from both, not the option to force an abortion.

Please understand that while I disgree with a lot of the child support system and issues, were I to be placed in that situation, I would NOT need a government agency telling me to care for my child. I would fight tooth and nail to have equal custody, at worst.

An aside, since it's care for the child that the support system is addressing, does the government, or agency or whatever, count money spent directly on the child, as opposed to money handed to the mother?

Meaning, say I have a kid, and the girl and I split, but every other week, I show at her house with groceries, or buy all the kids clothes, or whatever... Does that count? Or if I do that, would I still have to pay the mother a given amount?
