I don't know what kind of job this person has, but this strikes me as the least empathetic statement a person could make. Yes, I have young children, and I learned that I knew nothing about parenting before having kids.
I'm pretty sure we sure be fighting a class war instead
I was like that when I was 16. Completely childish behavior. Unless those parents offload their work constantly to other employees. Or let the team down.
Yeah same with pets. You have obligations people who don't have can not understand! /S
Your hobby! don't tell me you are doing it for me or something. Humanity would survive if you would not have reproduced.
You really out here trying to equate having a family with hobbies like knitting and golf? Wild take bro.
I mean I'm a parent but I don't expect that to be of any more interest to my coworkers than if I were a civil war reenactor or a golfer. it's not for for me to say that my family carries more weight than their lives. so - yes, we do equate having a family with knitting and golf; we equate them exactly. the knitter is not less important than me.
Yes. If I put my whole life behind knitting and it's my whole life who are you saying it's less that your child?
This has gotta be bait.
