Have you ever seen a single hostility? I can't speak for startups, but if someone ever mentioned age or child status in a hiring meeting at an established Tech Company, they'd be met with horrified glares and immediately told those facts CANNOT factor into the hiring decision. Frankly I've worked with many engineers and I've never seen any correlation, positive or negative, between overall engineering productivity and whether the engineer had children.
