This is a very snarky, flippant, uninformed take that serves no purpose other than to tear others down in an effort to validate your decision.

Have kids or don’t, live your life the way you want. But taking unsolicited dumps on other people’s decisions is a pretty lame way to live.

And yes, you do have to have kids in order to understand what it feels like to have kids. You do not know what it’s like, as evidenced by your thinking having kids entitles a parent to their love. Let me tell you clearly and unequivocally: it does not. Love is earned. A family is a big lesson in that.

To use a less charged example: I can’t claim to know what strawberries taste like if I never try a strawberry.

TL;DR: I understand anti-natalism is in vogue right now, but some of y’all are really shitty about it.
