That's such a terribly cynical point of view. It's not being stupid to choose to nurture the new life you've begun to create despite whatever circumstances, it's selfless and compassionate. I'm sure you don't think all cases are the same, but doing something you believe is right no matter however it inconveniences you doesn't make it stupid. People don't always do things because their religion or authority makes them.

If I was in the situation of having an unintended pregnancy without the means to raise the future child properly or if it meant compromising my own ambitions, I would choose to have the child, if I had any say in it, that is. I would let the mother make the call.
Please explain how having a kid while knowing you don't have the means to raise it is selfless? You bring a life into this already fucked up world just to tell it "Sorry, you were never meant to be born in the first place and we don't have money to raise you properly, but hey at least you're alive."

I do believe it is stupid to do something against your will if you have a clear choice of not doing it handy. I would not give up my own life for anyone, be it catching a bullet or throwing away my future for a kid I never wanted. If my GF would get pregnant and refuse to abort despite my wishes, she can just have her baby by herself and I'll run off to Vegas.
