But you did make a choice, and often, people without kids are viewed as the solution rather than pushing back against the system that forces you to need that solution. There's stories of parents fully expecting childfree people to sacrifice their free time for the sake of parents as if they were obligate babysitters or able to cover at a job or whatever. We get to bitch and moan about that stuff. Just like you get to bitch and moan about the downsides of having children.

It is all about status. Parenting is hard, most adult people understand it. That is why people tend to give them "breaks that are not really breaks". If you want those "breaks" go get yourself a toddler. Bitching about timeoff which is not really timeoff. Go get a grip. If parents start to offload constantly their job onto you that is different question. If not then mind your own business. Childfree? more like childish
