I am genuinely here for the "I don't want kids, don't pressure me" and "kids? In this economy?!" discourse. But I'm extremely annoyed at how often folks are crossing the line into "you are wrong to want children" or "you can't possibly be happy with kids because they're a responsibility."

No one should pressure you to have kids. But likewise, no one should tell people who genuinely love being parents (like me) that they're wrong or delusional or lying. That's bullshit.
