Nah, that was my childhood.
Also, this is the exact attitude a lot of us have an issue with. If you want to be a parent then that's great! I fully support you in that decision and will do everything I can to help. So why can't you support my individual decision to not have children?
My observation you're responding to is neutral as regards providing support. I didn't know that a) you need support, b) that you were looking here nor c) that a sentence with what amounts to a shower thought can so efficiently deprive you of some. I certainly support everyone's decision to not have children while reserving the right to say they're a great source of happiness and meaning in my life.
