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.
Based on the many posts responding to your comments, flyer111, you must realize that all who are reading your remarks -- including those of us who have children, as well as those who do not -- are finding your words bizarre, illogical, and offensive. You say you don't mean to be "patronizing", but then go on to say that you "pity" those who choose not to be parents. You were not "misunderstood". Believe me, it is very clear to all of us exactly what you think.
