I agree that before I had kids it was easy to be blind to how different life is even when having those close to me with them. But people have kids in cities without cars and inclimate weather all over the world. I moved from a car-centric city when I had kids because the thought of driving from work, to childcare or school, to soccer practice, then home made me incredibly miserable. Suburbs accommodate this better, but that seems to almost necessitate two cars. A decent city accommodates this, requires a lot less upfront cost, and just fewer resources all around. The comment you're replying to seems to think its not feasible.
