I think the term "father" and "mother" are used here to say who got who pregnant. But if a person isn't of the belief that life begins at the moment of conception, and an abortion is performed at the extreme earliest awareness of conception...well, that's a whole other kettle of fish.
Sorry to throw fuel on the fire...but it had to be said! Sometimes it sucks being the devil's advocate...

I was referring to the psychological and behavioural distinction between fathers and sperm donors. Impregnating someone and reappearing only to lay claim to the egg my seed happens to fertilize, or to demand termination, is a foreign concept to me. I just don't see how anyone can have sex with someone and walk away and because I wasn't making that distinction...my feathers got ruffled.
To clarify my position: Fathers should have a say in the life of their unborn child.
Sperm donors should not.
