I do however disagree with the assumption that people without children are not qualified to have an opinion regarding the welfare of children.
this is what you said. and you can interpret
'i take it your not a parent then' as meaning the above?
very strange.

AS ...A ...PARENT ...YOU ...WILL ...what's the fucking point!

sorry if i bit your head off ...i'm hot smelly and nackered at the moment. been working on the land in the hot hot sun.
i have a point of view on the economics of the uk and europe but recently posted a thread about why they bothering with a referendum on the euro ...why are they asking for my point of view? my understanding of economics is limited compared with an economist. i'm entitled to my point of view but if someone said to me ...'i take it your not an economist then?' ...i would understand that to mean my point of view and understanding of the matter would not be as great as the economists.
having children changes a lot about you and your point of view and fears and understandings, a great deal. were i asking advice about children my first stop would be different parents and not a schoolgirl or childless adult.

Mr Roll said it a lot better than I could have
But yes if you want advice or help with a certain subject who do you ask? Someone whose been there.
Which is not to say on this matter people with children have no opinion because thats not the case, they obviously do have opinions but maybe not the same opinion as if they were actually a parent
