Lol. I'm also not the biggest fan of children, but what are the parents supposed to do? Not having vacation? Leave them home alone? Throw them out the window on the drive to the airport?

get a sitter. If you can afford a holiday, budget for a sitter.

Or don’t have holidays until the snot factories are old enough to behave if you can’t afford a sitter. You chose to have children.

Let's see who will pay for your retirement and medical care eventually... (unless if you live in that US hellscape ofcourse)

If that's all you're having kids for please do not have kids.

Oh yeah, one hundred percent. The only reason I got kids was to make sure they can take care of my retirement.

Just as I'm taking care of my parents. I have totally absolutely 100% not broken off all contact with them because of their shitty behaviour. No sir, absolutely not.
