The community is called childfree, you'd think everyone here would be at least somewhat opposed to the concept of having children.

This is the problem with the childfree community these days, antinatalists (who argue no one should have children) have taken over.

But they are an extreme and vocal subset of child-free people. I am happily childfree but i acknowledge that other people who do want to have kids should have them, and that we need children to sustain society.
