I think that this case rests on whether a condom was used or not. A condom is used today to prevent STDs and pregnancy.
If the condom was used and failed, the father should have a say in the continuation of the pregnancy, not just the mother.
If no condom was used it becomes a grey area. However, at the time both parties (probably drunk) were not intending to produce a child.
I think the potential father should have a say about the continuation of the pregnancy.
If he has no say, he shouldn't have to pay support.
