    I’ll attempt a real answer. I don’t hate kids or the parents of kids who care for them and raise them to be good people.

    I hate that societal pressures place having kids at the near top of life’s implicit goals. I hate that my wife and I almost had kids because of these pressures, when neither of us really wanted it. And if it weren’t for one (slightly older than us) couple we were friends with sharing that they were childfree, we would be there, and likely unhappy about it. So we speak out, not out of hate, but just to provide the other side, it ok to have kids… It’s ok to not, it’s a choice.
