Reason: Stigmatizing Fathers: Dads lose both ways in adoption cases

Reason: Stigmatizing Fathers: Dads lose both ways in adoption cases: "In the end, our society sends men quite a mixed message. If your partner gets pregnant and decides to keep the baby, you're liable for 18 years of child support, whether or not you want to be a father. If she doesn't want to be a mother, she can give your child to strangers and there isn't much you can do. Then we complain that men don't take parenthood seriously enough."
