Should men be held responsible if the child is kept? should he support the mother and child?

NO, the guy should NEVER force his woman to get an abortion. An abortion is not only physically damaging to the woman's body (as you mentioned, it sometimes happens that the patient can never give birth again or even get pregnant) but mentally having to deal with the fact that you could've had a daughter or a son - ''what would he she look like?'', ''What would be his/her favorite dish?'', ''Would they be a pretty boy or a princessy girl?''.. It's all not put upon the guy's body - so he has NOTHING to say about it in my opinion.
Of course the guy should be held responsible if his gf chooses to keep the baby - if he doesn't wanna play daddy, then that's fine. But he should still pay till the kid's 18. IF the gf ''tricked'' him then he shouldn't have to pay tho; say if she said she was on the pill but wasn't, just because she wanted a baby.. But generally, he took part in the game. Consequences aren't just put upon ONE party of the fun here.
