Perhaps the "bitterness" you think you're picking up on is in fact the child-free person's exhaustion of having to defend their choice yet again.

The bus driver can go home at the end of the day, but that child can never escape their situation. They can,…

Ugh, gross. Some of us do actually work in the Early Child Development field, and know that hitting little kids, especially ones with special needs, is complete and utter bullshit. You don't need to be a saint, just a decent person.
