Having sexual intercourse or as I call it, mating, is the first step in the reproduction cycle for all animal species regardless of type and kind. Given this fact, the decision of whether or not a man and woman want kids should ultimately lie with the choice to mate with each other. After all, without this step, no human reproduction takes place and thus, the woman would not even have to be concerned on what to do with a kid she gave birth to that she did not want to have in the first place.
