The answer is yes and no. Hah! Yes in the sense that there's this idea people without kids do nothing but sleep in, eat out, travel, and have tons of money, when a lot of us work hard, are on budgets, take care of aging relatives or friends...you get the idea. Unfair in that at work we (especially the women) are expected to always cover for parents under the banner of "it takes a village" but the village tends to have one way streets...to the parents and their needs. I worked in an office where the non-kid people were expected to always cover but parents were allowed to say they couldn't cover because of their kids.

No in the sense of in my own personal experience I've never had anything but consideration and respect from friends and family. I adore the kids in my life, and am happy to do for them. I find that's reciprocated and appreciated by the parents, and I always get thanks and often a little gift. No one forgets my birthday. OP's friend is probably just a self-absorbed nightmare in general.[/quote]
