That finger-wagging “well you have to deal with the consequences” (meaning see the pregnancy through to term) is so foul an attitude. It is espoused by people who claim to value the life of the baby and yet are prepared to use a baby - an individual little person, that will become a child, an adult, with a whole life of their own - as a punishment for a woman
Dead right, Symphony
That baby, once born, isn't just a toy to be fought over - it is a sentient being with needs and feelings - physical, spiritual and emotional. It shouldn't be used as a pawn, or weapon by a stupid, selfish, shiftless layabout to control aa woman and deprive her of autonomy, and frustrate her potential. And if she is equally stupid, selfish, and shiftless - all the more reason not to land an infant with two parents who can't or won't bother.
Every child should be wanted, every child should be loved, and every child should be cared for. There are people who want to do the best for their children but don't know how - then it is the state's job to offer support and assistance (if families fail to step in). And there are people for whom a child is a chance to score a few points - these people are usually the most vociferous about their "rights" to be a parent, but s=don't actually want any of the responsibilities that go with that role.
And it seems from what I have seen that the "pro-life" groups are only keen that a pregnancy should go to term - they wash their hands of what happens to the child afterwards, Born into poverty, with an underage depressed mother who now has no chance of making something of her life? Well, tough - should have thought of that before she got herself pregnant (because obviously it isn't the fault of any male, who is just doing as nature intended . . .).
Her body, her future, her choice her decision.
Men don't get a say (they wouldn't expect to have a say in another man's bodily autonomy - why in a woman's?).
The foetus doesn't get a say (unless it is viable - at which point, for the health of both mother and child, medical consultation be sought). A blob of cells is not a person. And you can't say it has the potential to become a person, because so does every ovum and every spermatazoon. (Though I dare say that out there in the world there are people who think that if women have periods they should be charged with murder - because if they were following their biological function, they would be constantly pregnant, and those precious eggs wouldn't get washed away in a sea of blood . . . . )
