You're really describing a small but very vocal portion of people with kids. I don't think most parents are that concerned about it.

The people who you're describing only had kids because they grew up being taught that that's what they were supposed to do wether they actually wanted kids or not. This very specific group get upset that child free people are somehow going against the plan by not bending over backwards to accommodate everyone who did have kids.

They're also constantly angered further when they see child free adults having a fun relaxing time while they're stuck wrangling their own ill mannered progeny.

They certainly are very petty, angry, frustrated people but they definitely don't represent everyone who has kids lol
