Parents hate the Childfree

Slightly confused what's happening here😂

Is this thread going to be another where you claim all the "evidence" of hatred towards child free people.

In the same way you choose to misinterpret someone saying an able bodied single person who chooses not to work has no work ethic, as child free people don't deserve council houses.

Oh for gods sake, of course parents don't hate the child free.

For all we know the goady OP made the other post too.

Able bodied but choosing not to work people.

Nothing to do with kids.

Yes, the fact that it's NOT about being child free

No… I’m still no clearer sorry. Could you please try again? With punctuation?

I wil take a punt you are single, don’t have friends or maybe do but always drama and issues and not close, and perhaps
don’t work or - if you do, have a very rocky relationship with colleagues and manager

because there is something very…. Odd here

I completely understand child-free people. I understand why some people have chosen not to have kids and I understand that far too many lovely people want kids are unable to have them. I also recognise that some single people want/wanted kids but never met the right person. Heck, I was one of those people until two forms of contraception failed (yes, two!) and I fell pregnant. I was fully resigned to being on my own.

So we have now gone from "i cant see anything on that thread" to "thats what teadi was referring to"

I hate childless people who have 101 opinions on how I raise my children or how my friends raise their children. They are the worst, usually they are only acquaintances because they never get to the friends stage with me (probably because they are dicks)

I love my childless friends who are nice and who like my children though, they are great.

I really like to watch previously 'childfree by choice' people struggling with their children. But that's probably because I'm a dick 😅

So child free people have no work ethic

"I didn't even think single child free able bodied folk would qualify these days"
Exhibit A
Why should they?

That's what teadi was referring too.

*Single
and
child free
and
able bodied ie not in receipt of any disability benefit

so not telling someone childfree they shouldn’t get social housing because they are child free*

The poster called teadi did. But instead of just clicking on the link you are getting off on wasting my time instead.

If this is what becoming a parent turns you into im glad i skipped it.

You're cherry picking solely "kids" out of single able bodied person without kids.

As you well know.

She's saying why should someone who could work to provide a roof over their head, just be handed a house. Which is a very simplistic view, granted. But it's about work ethic. Not being child free. The only relevance of "child" here is that they need housing and can't do that themselves.

No

why should someone single AND childfree AND able bodied ie not in receipt of any disability benefits

Single
and
child free
and
able bodied ie not in receipt of any disability benefit

so not telling someone childfree they shouldn’t get social housing because they are child free

Come on now, you’re being silly @JenniferBooth

As in why should people without kids qualify for social housing?

Someone is answering Why should they? in response to..............no fuck it Remove your finger from where you normally keep it and just click on the link upthread

When you buy your own house you can choose whichever size of property you like/can afford.

Yes. No issue there.

Social housing is a different matter. I didn't even think single child free able bodied folk would qualify these days ( correct me if I'm wrong)

She wonders if there's no reason you can't work and put a roof over your own head, that you shouldn't be given free housing. That's about how much someone should be given when they have no immediate barrier to providing for themselves, with no disadvantages or dependents (who can not house themselves)

So pay for your own flat? You don't need the room if there's just you

Are you arguing that as one person, who needs one bedroom, you should be equally entitled to a two or three bedroom, that you want, but don't need? Then they are quite right. Pay for your own flat, or have the funded one of the size you are entitled too?

Where are you finding offence in that?

The child free are layabout scum of the earth and should hang their heads in shame. Bring back the stocks for them I say!

Sorry I’m not sure what this is supposed to prove?

“Mumsnet was conceived in early 2000 when Justine Roberts embarked on a disastrous family holiday. Her idea was to create a website where parents could swap advice about not just holidays but all the other stuff parents talk about.
Twenty years later and who'd have thought it would come to this? Mumsnet is now the UK’s biggest network for parents, with around 9 million unique visitors per month clocking up around 100 million page views.”

That’s Mumsnet’s About Us page. So yes it’s evolved but it’s there in black and white.

But have you got any links of parents having a pop at the childfree?
