Entitled parents are all around us, always expecting the most out of everyone else.
I [said], wasnt that really expensive to book eight tickets for all of you to go?
They [said], what are you talking about?
Were gonna leave them with you because you work from home.
And I [replied], youre going to leave all your kids with me?
They [said], Were taking the baby.
But otherwise, yeah.

And Im just thinking, I do work from home.
What am I going to do with them?
And they [replied], dont be selfish.
You know how hard it is for us.
We can never get any sleep.
Thats not my problem.
So dealing with that, its just a headache in itself.
This is why I didnt have kids.
And they also called my mum and [said], hes not being cooperative.
Hes not being considerate.
Hes not, hes just being selfish.
So now my mums on my case, oh my God, just do this as a favor.
You work from home, so its fine for you.
If anyone has any advice, that would be greatly appreciated.
Bored PandainterviewedVeronica and Rick, the authors ofThe Childfree Connectionpage.
They shared that there is a general assumption that childfree people have extra time.
This discrepancy comes down to a lack of mutual respect for the different lifestyles.
Studies onvoluntarily childfreepeople found that people often believe that they are selfish, cold, and materialistic.
The irony of this assumption is that some childfree people have so much responsibility already.
As a couple, though, we tend to be placed under the umbrella of all these false assumptions.
