On the responsibility angle my only issue its fine for the woman to decide she doesnt want a kid but if they guy decides he doesnt want that responsibility hes a deadbeat and probably will pay child support

To be fair, if a woman decides she doesn't want the kid and carries it to term and it winds up being raised by the father, the mother would similarly be on the hook for child support.

That just tends to be a rare situation because if the father wants the child but not the mother, he can't force her to carry it to term, so an abortion is more likely, but if the mother wants the child but not the father, he can just walk away, which is not an option that the mother has available.

Yeah, it happens a lot. For instance, a former co-worker did that like 4+ times because she just didn't want a baby and then when she wanted one it was hard because of all the abortions.

Personal anecdotes are not proof of anything.

Besides, many studies have been done that indicate that children in foster care/adoption agencies are often riddled with all kinds of psychological and behavioral issues.

That's less because the children aren't raised by their biological parents and more because the children aren't being raised in a stable environment. Especially with foster parents, as that's intended as a temporary solution, who the child's caregivers are can change frequently and rapidly. This means the child never gets a chance to develop attachment to any of their caregivers, which can cause significant issues later in life.

Most of the time children who aren't raised by their biological parents do just fine so long as they spend most or all of their childhood with their new families.

Things get tricky when you have couples that have been together for years, love one another, and BOTH genuinely WANTED a kid.....but during pregnancy she has some kind of psychological breakdown and wants to abort.

Somehow I doubt the situation you laid out is a common occurrence. Contrary to popular belief, most women are not, in fact, hysterical emotion-bags ready to fly off into a full-on psychotic break at the slightest inclination.
