AIBU to think that childfree living forum is sick!!!

[dekoLL]

but the language used on this site is just shocking! if you all got such a perfect , selfulfilling life, why are you wasting it by ranting on this forum, even more..wasting time looking through mums forums to show off how negative parent?s life is. This is just pathetic!!!! You show such a strange hatred to mums and whole idea of parenthood, and created new concepts and meanings around this hate. This looks almost like hitlero style site. I cannot comprehend how can you be so spiteful and why to women that choose to have children, although you are yourself children of mothers that are just the same as the ones that you attacking. Moos.....baybee....that is so childish and sick! And i think you all like little never- to ? grow up children, and that?s why having kids scares you so much. This forum could be a perfect source of perfect psychology PhD thesis.....
sick ideology of never milked cows...mooooooooooo!!!!!!!

When i think of things i'd be doing if i didn't have children to constantly breast feed look after, posting on any forum would be bottom of the list.

I thought I could never have children due to a medical problem and it is hard when society puts pressure on and expects you to have a family. Some childfree people will rant because deep down they really want a family, and others will rant because they are tired of the pressure on them to conform.

If internet forums exist where people can rant and let of steam then so be it. No one is making us read them!

Meh, this doesn't bother me tbh. Vile people choosing not to breed? That's natural selection at work, people. Haven't read the site, btw, just this thread.

I agree imp. I also can't help but feel that it is an extreme rejection of a lifestyle they are completely unable to be part of. But like others have said the fact that they have taken it to the level where they are wishing that babies and mothers die violent dealths makes them quite disturbed individuals.

So 'childfree living' consists of lots of moaning and ranting about children and their mothers, does it? Sounds like a riot.

I can hear the deafening buzz of bees in bonnets from here. Leave 'em to it.

Before I had children I was adamant about not wanting them. I disliked them mostly TBH or I thought I did. I found the subject boring and parents' bores TBH. But even at my most intolerant I would never have made comments along those lines.

Having had children has made me more tolerant. I think it made me grow up.

I don't think YABU we were all DCs FFS; they're weird and sad saddoes

Offensive, intolerant and bitter! I can't believe someone who has never met me or my ds could refer to him as my "cunt nugget" and wish us both dead

Good for them if they are happy in their choice to not have children but there is no need for such spite and hatred towards those who do!

Childfree living apparently consists of fixating on children. You may as well just have a kid if you're going to spend so much time thinking about them.

Each to their own I guess.

I haven't got children, but have no objections WHATSOEVER to women who've made different choices to me. Surely if we're all happy with the choices we've made, we can all rub along happily together? I love hearing the girls from work talk about their children, I always enjoy seeing photos of their kids and often wish I could accompany them to school nativity plays at Christmas! It's a shame some people are so bitter and angry.

Petal, I have to go to my neice's plays every year. You are not missing any thing!

Legally speaking though isn't inciting hatred against a group of people illegal?
The name calling and anger on there is borderline imo.

Yes one can choose not to read it, but if someone in real life was calling a pregnant woman or anyone as a matter of fact, who has done nothing to anyone those names to their face, they could be arrested for verbal assault.

I find it odd that someone would want to host/be associated with such a forum.....very odd indeed.

Good grief. They are boooooooring.
Now THAT is a crime on a t'internet forum.

Hmmmm, vitriol filled, self validating posts...

Because we never have those on here do we?

If you're all superior to these people, why not prove it by not descending to their level?

All the people I know who don't have children (my sister, my friend) are amazing with kids and make an important contribution to the lives of those they know.

As they say - it takes a village to raise a child. Maybe if some of these people stopped bitching about how awful children are and started sharing the social responsibility of raising them (because surely even they acknowledge that without children being born and raised, the economy would grind to a complete halt and the infrastructure of the country would eventually collapse) then we'd end up with a nicer and more cohesive society.

What an odd website. The misogyny is pretty depressing.

You do know all of those 'moosnet' are mumsnet threads don't you? I recognise no12/13 as threads that have been on here.

yes, I had managed to crack that code

DH's ex is like this. Got herself sterilised at the age of 24 and was very hostile towards people with kids. One of DH's friends is a very stringent no marriage-no kids guy and his long-term GF is the same. He always ribs me for being a SAHM but I give as good as I get and it's all in jest.

Seems to me that child-free people can become very much defined by that choice, especially as all their friends get older and get married/have kids, etc, and they become the outsider in those discussions and events. They become "that person who doesn't want kids". I think that's where the chip and the hostility comes from...
