Tough topic. I have some personal experience with it. The thing I struggle most with is the fact that I am often looked down upon (either consciously or subconsciously) by those that have "achieved" parenthood. Having children is an odd status symbol in Western society.

Probably don't think of you at all. And they probably look at their kids as something they love and makes their live much richer, not a "status symbol."
