So she trapped him with a baby.


Wanted to smack fire out of her for that one. What a moron.

LMFAO. I think it's disgusting! Thats crazy. I guess that's why so many couples end up unhappy.

Once baby arrives, many men grow up and are actually happy. He wasn't too young to have a baby; he was a bit emotionally immature.

They had gone through all the steps and stages: education, marriage, job, house, and what's next? Having a family. You have to think that in all their time together, the young couple had said to each other that they wanted children (without specifying a timeline). And they had been married four years already.

She did not trap him. She tried to trap him and it did not work. Remember men have no rights. A woman can kill the fetus a amn put in her or trap a man for 18 years. It is totally up to her.

Men have a right to use protection. :)

As a woman, I actually think it is unfair that a woman does have 100% control to either abort or keep it and the man 0%. Yes, I get the whole, it is her body argument. However, both men and women need to take more responsibility too. There was a funny ad that showed the price of condoms and a sign that indicated much cheaper than the cost of these ... it was a package of diapers

Wow, you must be fun at parties.

Or they were a married couple who loved each other and she felt it was time to have a child, which basically all married couples choose to do

reply

That's fine, but to be fair she decided all of that on her own, because she never talked to him about it. And she clearly knew that she was deceiving him, since she felt guilty about it.

I'm assuming you are not married or in a relationship, but the way it happens in the movie is the same thing that happens with most middle class couples when they decide to have children. The wife realises she wants to be a mother, with the first step going off the pill, they then start working towards having a child by seeing doctors, specialists etc. He obviously wanted to have a child too, or he wouldn't have gone to see a doctor and have a sperm count
