"Lotta bitterness on this thread."

You've obviously never experienced the cold stares and rude comments of the childless career women when a happy looking couple walk into a restaurant with a beautiful, well behaved one year old. The most typical comment is "I'm glad I don't have to depend on a man," the other is "How can people be so selfish to bring a child into the world im this day and age." More common still, is the sadness you see in many women's eyes when they look upon a baby knowing they'll die childless. At least twice, we've sat next to a woman in tears at the sight of a mother and child - her husband looking on helplessly. That last experience I can relate to thoroughly, as it took us 13 years to conceive, and we were finally taken by a beautiful surprise.

As does most socialist commentary, the article completely ignores the human factor. As such, it's pretty much crap.

Just a mild observation. You often bring a 1 year old to restaurants? Perhaps it's the incessant screams that make people cry. I was a restaurant owner for 25 years. Your behavior was the scourge of my life. The popularity of my restaurant allowed me to unceremoniously boot you mindless fools out. I believe you should have all the babies you want, but please stop making your little bundle of joy my problem.
