Termination - A Man’s Role
Men's Issues
Home Page
The
decision to have a pregnancy termination can be a difficult time for
the male partner. Ideally the decision should be a mutual one. However,
because it is ultimately the woman’s choice, many men feel powerless
and isolated. Not only can they feel ‘left out’ but also ‘abandoned’ by
their partner who may be so caught up with dealing with her own feelings
that she may not see how the situation is affecting them. A man may also
experience feelings of relief, regret, sadness, anger or guilt.
It is important to seek help if you are having difficulty coming to terms
with the situation.
