This is insanity, and I wonder whether Flyer111 actually meant what he posted. He says he has posted his last in this thread, so we may never know. But still -- how could those of us who are parents be "better people" than those of us who are NOT parents? It's a patently ridiculous statement, and I think people on this board are intelligent enough to know that such an overreaching piece of filth-smack deserves no serious response. I love my sons more than life itself, but I am certainly no "better" than ANYONE -- and neither is Flyer111.
OK. I will break my promise because I was misunderstood.
Obviously, we parents are not "better" than non-parents. How do you even measure "better"?
My comment was only because I could not stand the arrogance of someone who had his company pay for his travel and complain that some kids made noise in the PC.
I agree with most of what you said, and I did not mean to be patronizing. I realize that some people are not parents out of choice. I pity them, but it is their business.
