This post is weirdly judgemental.

If you like your child free life so much, why do you feel the need to comment on those that aren't.

Funny how we all celebrate when leopards eat the faces of those complaining about their own actions. But for some reason when it comes to the regret of having children, people clutch their pearls.

I'm not judging all parents. I'm judging parents that didn't think about wtf they were doing while making life decisions. The same way I judge people that voted for a clown and were shocked when they got a circus.

I'd argue absolutely no parent has any idea what they're doing when they have their first kid, because it's borderline impossible to know how all encompassing it's going to be. Mostly they're just grumbling because it is hard work a lot of the time. I say this absolutely without judgement on people who don't want to have kids.

Also, every kid is different. Some are easy to take care of but others are stuff of nightmares.
