Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it’s actually pretty popular.
Do you have some that’s really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

Sitcoms sold people a bleak view of parenthood.
“sacrifice years of their lives to raise those kids” is an accurate description, and sitcoms had nothing to do with it.
I found it’s something that enriches you and provides a strong sense of purpose and so from my viewpoint it’s nowhere near an accurate description.
Nah, that was my childhood.
Also, this is the exact attitude a lot of us have an issue with. If you want to be a parent then that’s great! I fully support you in that decision and will do everything I can to help. So why can’t you support my individual decision to not have children?
My observation you’re responding to is neutral as regards providing support. I didn’t know that a) you need support, b) that you were looking here nor c) that a sentence with what amounts to a shower thought can so efficiently deprive you of some. I certainly support everyone’s decision to not have children while reserving the right to say they’re a great source of happiness and meaning in my life.
