I actually believed I hated all children because I'd only been exposed to shitty parents who were raising equally shitty spawn. I still dislike children and don't want any of my own, but I'm actually capable of hanging out with a cool, well behaved child now that my view of them isn't warped. (The same thing happened to me with fats, except I originally thought they ware just normal people who are too much, but now I know they're messy, lazy, toxic excuses for life.) Edit: I reread your comment, and I have to confirm what you said about obeasts pets being vicious. A fat old ham lives in my building and she owns two little yappy dogs (I think they're some kind of Chihuahua mix), and she never takes them for walks, just outside to the parking lot so they can piss/shit. Whenever any one comes within their vicinity, they begin viciously barking and growling, jumping at strangers and generally being obnoxious. It makes sense since they're not being socialized properly and are cooped up in a probably smelly, dingy 1 bedroom apartment with a lardbarge for an owner. (oh and they're overweight, but that goes without saying).
