In my world of IMAGINATION, where I get to see uncountable babies crawling here and there in laughter and smile, some running and staggering up and down in a happy mood because they have no worries and they are in a beautiful place with no fear of insecurity or hunger and they are so so happy.
Suddenly, two unseen hands picked one, two, three or four babies depending on the strength from the unseen hands and luck and dragged them out of their joyful peers, terminating the joy they have been experiencing and the togetherness with their friends. At the end of the day, it was discovered that these two hands were not ready for the baby(s) they dragged and then decided to return the baby(s) violently. I IMAGINE IT TO BE A SAD EXPERIENCE because that's a murder and assassination.
Abortion should not be the go-to means just because couples are not ready to have a baby. There are other measures that has been put into place medically to avoid getting pregnant when a couple is not ready for parental responsibility or better still Abstain from sexual activity.
There's provision for family planning of different kinds which helps couples plan the years they want to spend together without having kids, or the interval they want between the birth of their children if they decide to have more than 1 or 2.
In fact, there are situations whereby the couples needs to have a baby since they have none but due to the wife's critical health, she's advised medically not to try getting pregnant or having a baby. So such people tend to take the family planning method seriously.
BUT In this case of talking about ABORTION for this prompt, let's say unfortunately, the last instance of a critical health wife accidentally got pregnant, is ABORTION right and does the father have a say in getting the abortion or not?
This is actually a very complicated instance and issue because it isn't just about not wanting the baby but the baby is a necessity but just not necessary at that time due to the carrier's health. I think medically, abortion is legally acceptable for these kind of situations if I'm not totally wrong. What's the life of the baby gonna tell when the mother is at risk of losing her life in the process
Fathers or proposed fathers should and must have a say when it comes to having an abortion, no matter what the circumstances around the pregnancy may be.
To be Noted Having a say is not in the sense of calling for abortion because he is running from fatherly responsibility o.
Both couple are the drivers of the pregnancy even if the wife will be the carrier and has the primary body of going through the diverse changes that the pregnancy brings but in issues like abortion, he should be able to have a say because you can't decide to kill the child he's supposed to be a father on because you decided to.
Most especially in the cases of the last instance I gave in the 5th paragraph.
There are movies I've seen whereby wives in this case get to insist on carrying the baby just to have an offspring after her and the husbands get to argue with such decision to never occur but rather go for abortion.
Issues like this in marriage can only be sort with thorough communication and that's why both responsible parties must be involved in the decision making and not just 1 of them.
The most important thing and the best thing is that, when couples realizes that they are not yet ready, they can always ABSTAIN, PROTECT themselves using CDs or go for FAMILY PLANNING instead of taking Abortion as the escape route and endangering the other party's life or activating the possibility of not getting pregnant again. Worse fact is that MEN'S LIFE GOES ON.

I agree with you, they can take CDs or abstain, a child life is precious and shouldn't be wasted.
So precious and just like a post I read,they should be given a chance cos we don't even know if we were also conceived by mistake but was just given a chance to live and it turned out fine
Your opinion is on point ✅
You acknowledged that a man should have a say in deciding to keep the baby or not.
Some ladies don't even care to know what the man feels about keeping the baby or not.
And yes, the woman would have the final say because she is the one bearing the risk.
Yes but in the case of the NOT keeping, I was been exceptional and added a clause cos there are some men whose intention of not keeping the baby is because they feel they are not ready yet and not because of any valid reason.
Thanks for your input and for stopping by Wealth
You're welcome 💯
Family planning isn't for everyone and you know some enjoys it raw that CD, but at that when it comes to abortion, I feel the lady should have an upper hand because she will be the one to pass through all those stress
When they enjoy it raw at the time they are not ready for parental responsibility then they should be able to shoulder the responsibility that comes with the result of the raw and not running away from it
You know our society is really messed up today right? Is it a 16years that should shoulder such responsibility
When he/she shoulders it then he/she will be careful not to make another mistake again at the cost of suffering for it. It will help such in their future decisions as well cos there's no way advising abortion to a 16 year old person wouldn't even affect his/her life more cos that would surely become an escape route as long as the first goes well, successful and smoothly
You are right 👍
The way you dissect every part of the conversation is where I find this write-up interesting.
Awnnn thanks for the compliment storygoddess and thanks for stopping by
The topic is a complicated one to pick a side and stay on. The woman takes the risk here, and it's her body to, I believe, the man can only support whatever decision she makes, rather than to enforce a decision on her; other methods may fail in the attempt of that, one should have a choice when it happens.
Yeah men should have a say but can't enforce. I like that choice of words
That's why we should marry someone who's understanding and like a friend cos only then will there be a successful and meaningful communication as a complex and complicated time like that
Naso..
My dear , you have said it all. The men should be allowed a day , just that there are some irresponsible ones out there
Yeah then full town
God dey
Yes oo 😁 Dia is God o
And funny enough and unfortunately, good ladies are mostly their victims
Fathers also have a say in the decision involving a child and not only the mother alone. Abortion should never be an option at all.
Never an option o except in some health issues but I still feel that can be avoided IF they had known about it initially
