Men having a say in whether or not they want/have to be a parent (ie. not having to pay child support) would lead to a lot more abortions, I think. Lots of people living off it.

I think it would lead to more dead beat dads than abortions.

That allows men to be even more irresponsible.

It's already a big problem with either men skipping payments or being unable to pay them at all. I know that many famous athletes have gone bankrupt because their child support was based on their athletic income and they couldn't keep it up after retiring. I can only imagine how it could be bad after the big slump and a ton of people became un or underemployed.

ETA: I think there should be big overhauls to the entire system. it's not set up in a very logical way and there has to be a better solution so that the child can actually benefit.

My point was giving men an opportunity to not pay child support doesn't lead to men being more responsible.

What you're talking about now is unrelated. I'll atleast agree there should be a cap on how high child support can be. Certainly no one should get rich off it.

My point wasn't that. I said that if it wasn't the case, then those who make their living off of alimony and child support wouldn't have those incomes and thus would have been more likely to choose abortion. I didn't say that it made men more responsible.
