I didn't say I supported it or that I want to pay for it I just defined the discussion. Point in fact that is being totally ignored on this board is that for each of the pregnancies that you don't want to pay for there is a man making a very intentional contribution. Why are we not bringing him into this financial equation? You are placing the entire burden of being pregnant on the woman.
How does that work????? Are you sexist, irresponsible, or do you feel that men just can not make the proper choice to not impregnate a woman?

Men bear the majority of the financial cost of raising children, whether married or divorced.

Wow - sore spot? Men are just as responsible as women when it comes to preventing pregnancies - I don't think we should pay for either sex. If both fail to take precautions, then let them live with the "mistake" and pay for it too. How does that make me sexist and/or irresponsible? It sounds to me like you have a more sexist chip on your shoulder than I.
