I think that most everyone involved in the debate that has developed out of this kind of needs to step back and not read things into the first post that are simply not there.

First of all, the only one who knows WHY she is choosing not to abort is the original poster (Salvanas).
What we do know is that she made the choice not to abort, and that he is not going to force her. He also said that he is making the choice to try and take responsibility in some way.

No one ever said that they fought over it. No one said that she is trying to force him to be a father. No one said much of anything other than that it is a stressful time, and that advice was needed.

Why has this turned into a debate about whether she should have made that decision? About whether women should be able to force men to be fathers when they don`t want to? About the evils of having sex?

Maybe she is making a "wrong" decision. It is her decision to make. Maybe he has every right to leave her for choosing to have the baby he doesn`t want. But he is making the decision to try and take responsibility.
We don`t know their relationship, we don`t know how this was discussed, we don`t know the reasoning. At the very least we should try to be supportive and understanding of the choice that Salvanas is saying he wants to make, and of his stress and confusion.
Going on about the evils of sex, the evils of not aborting any baby that isn`t coming into a perfect situation, the evils of making choices someone else doesn`t see as "right"... Is not going to help anything.
