I don't hate kids, but it would be a horrific nightmare for everyone involved if I had some of my own. Never wanted them, never will. I do adore my niece.

it's okay to not want them, but calling them "shitty fucking kids" or "crotch goblins" or other stupid names is a different matter and only reflects badly on the person who says these things

You are in a community devoted to the decision to not having kids. Just pointing that out since there does seem to be some confusion.

Which totally shouldn't justify it becoming an echo chamber of child-haters

It doesn't justify it at all, but it does add context

Why do you even care? CF people aren't going to bother you or your uninteresting children
