It is not linked at all. Abortion can be an option for a pregnant woman, but it doesn't have anything to do with child support

It may be the laws (or their enforcement) are not perfect now, but that doesn't change my point of view. Parents are responsible for their children. That includes child support. No ifs or buts.

If I got a lady pregnant, and even if she didn't want me in the child's life as a parent, I'd still pay child support. I can't think of any valid reason not to. Men who evade their responsibility in this behave irresponsibly in my view. Let the law deal with them.
