Should probability invalidate responsibility?

If you're fucking a girl and the condom breaks, even though there was only a 1 percent chance of it breaking, should you still be held accountable for the child if the woman chooses not to get an abortion? That was his point.

Well that one is easy. It's your child, end of story. If one chooses not to have an abortion, the other is still responsible for the life of the child.

I would disagree ... the very presence of a condom would suggest that pregnancy was not the intended goal of the sexual encounter. It would be obvious to anyone that in such a situation the pregnancy was an accident.

An abortion should be conducted at the discretion of the woman. It is her body, and the ultimate decision to abort should be in her hands in the same way that the decision to undergo any medical procedure should be up to the individual (assuming they are competent to make such decisions).

 

 

at bolded that is scientifically and biologically inaccurate.

making the whole premise of your argument false.
