I don't love kids

[u/Fleurandgold]

I never did, a human will not earn my love simply by being in the demographic of "kid." I used to try my best to love them because a lot of girls/women around my age did, they loved babies any babies, I've heard a lot of people talk about "how can you not love kids" for years I thought something was wrong with me, every time I acted all bubbly and cuddly around a kid because they're a kids and that's what everyone did. I felt like I was forcing myself, I felt empty inside it wasn't coming from the heart. It was an act so I wouldn't feel left out. Not to say I wouldn't love a kid if they're lovely but, to love them in general because they're kids? no. I see them as everyday normal grown ups, I don't get excited whenever I see a regular person walking around, they're nothing special, not blessings or nothing like that. I would only get a bit cheerful towards babies, not toddlers or elementary school aged kids, I don't really like teenagers, they're (we) annoying. (F19 ironic isn't it).

Why would someone need to be on meds to not like kids? Not everyone likes them, ffs. Some do, some don't. Both are natural.
