And i agree with RightOnline. "for the children" is a line that does not belong on free republic. That line has been used to many times to legitimize ignorant legislation and quell logical thinking!
And men get off (no pun intended) without having to accept resposibility for their part in this.
If some lady wants to be single, get a sperm donor, and raise a child on her own, thats her perogative, she can be the example to the rest.
And if men want to bring these children into the world, let them support them. As an example to the rest.

It doesn't impress me that you're more bothered by this expression than by fathers abandonning their children, and there is nothing ignorant about holding parents accountable for their children's support?
