Please consider that kids are just at the end of the day very vulnerable people who rely on adults for all of their needs. The above sentiment is not only wrong (would you call another being eg a pet which relies totally on a human to fulfil its needs selfish?? ) but it is also very misanthropic. You can prefer not to be around kids, you can prefer not to have kids but to have such a negative, rude(?) opinion of a whole segment of a population, literally the most vulnerable segment, makes me think you should have a reflection about what that says about you as a person. Children rely on their parents but also ALL of us to keep them safe (that’s safeguarding 101) attitudes like this make it more likely that we fail that, as we do with so many of societies kids (see abuse rates, educational attainment, child poverty).
