[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think OP is the horrible one in this situation. Yes, it's great that the child is growing up with someone who loves and cares for her. But it's still astonishing to hear that a fully capable human just abandoned his child. People keep bringing up situations of drug abuse, jail, mental health issues, apparently none of which apply here. He just... didnt want his child. That's definitely judgement worthy. I don't think I could be friends with someone like that. I'm glad he had a vasectomy and will not be abandoning any more children. [/quote]

People are giving all kinds of examples that do not apply to this. He wasn't a teen with an unwanted pregnancy.

He was a man who decided to have a child with his wife. After a year she was killed in a car crash. He could have easily asked that aunt, anmd other family to help him. Instead, he wanted zero ties, legal, financial etc. Thus adopted her out. You are right, as a society we should look down on any parent who behaves that way.[/quote]

Instead you can see that most people are looking down on you.

Do better.[/quote]

NP. No way. This man is a piece of shit.[/quote]

Sure, OP. Go back to your anti-choice protest.[/quote]

Not OP. I have no idea why you’re conflating being anti-choice with being anti-abandoning your child after your wife dies. This couple made THE CHOICE to bring a child into the world. He should step up and care for his child. Honestly, people will forgive men such bad behavior.[/quote]

That's *exactly* the argument the anti-choice people try to make. Exactly.[/quote]

No, the anti-choice people don’t want you to have a choice. I’m saying, you affirmatively made a choice to bring this child into the world, it exists, and now you need to be responsible for that choice. Very different from making a choice before a child exists.[/quote]

And they would say that you made that choice when you conceived the child, so you should be responsible for it. Apparently whether you're going to be a good parent or not.

Just like you're saying.[/quote]

Just because they're using the same argument at a different point in time doesn't mean I agree with them or they with me. Yes, after you have a child, you've made your decision. The child is here. At this point it's no longer solely about you. Is your argument that one must never take accountability for a decision to bring a child into the world? Can one always cast off the child, at any age, any time, for any reason?

If so, PIECE OF SHIT.[/quote]
