About 90% of users use a browser that supports the latest spec in full [1], and IE11 supports an older version of the spec and requires `-ms-` prefixing (which we do output), so hopefully most simple uses of grid in Webflow will work for IE

This is an example of dismissing someone else's perspective. Have you considered that someone might choose not to have children because they understand how difficult it is ?

My only advice is to try not to be self-righteous, but this has nothing to do with parenthood.

I'm not a parent, but if there's one thing I've for-sure learned about parenthood, it's that it gives you license to passive-aggressively dismiss the perspective of any and all non-parents.
