    I have been party to this discussion for over 35 years. In that time I have seen the “all or nothing” point of view from all sides fail to solve anything. Maybe some weight should be given to a compromise solution. This would mean spelling out courses of action for all possable choices, eg woman wants child, man does not, man wants child, woman does not, etc. In all the discusions the effect on the child should be given the ultamate weight.
