Sorry, but that's total BS. If that guy didn't want to get her pregnant, than he should have worn a condom every time. Just to be sure. What a moron.
Okay, now as to what I believe. I think that all parental responsibility, financial, care, and love of the child should be split 50/50. It takes two to make a child. Every one should be able to know both their parents and have the support and yes, resources, that both sets of parents can provide.
If fathers of children are allowed to opt out of having any fiscal responsibility for the child, why not the woman too? I mean, what if the only reason she got pregnant was because he wanted a boy. Then she gives birth to a girl and he want's nothing to do with the baby? Why shouldn't the mother then be allowed to leave the kid at the father's doorstep saying you wanted a child. Now you've got one. This line of reasoning leads to places like China that have a low female to male ratio. Where sex selection is practiced through ind exposure (to the elements) of female infants.
