I think your biggest consideration should be legal, honestly. Genes are not destiny, but support payments might be in yours. There are some rights and obligations that cannot be cancelled by contract, and your duty as an identified father might be raised in a court of law, even if only in some distant future. Circumstances change, but paternity does not. Only a lawyer can tell you what your legal obligations might be.....it varies considerably in different jurisdictions.
I've been where you are, and I turned it down. In fact, I had a vasectomy, because I take paternity very seriously.
