I have reblogged a few posts about it, but people not realizing kids are an oppressed minority will be the death of me, I think.
Just because people are expected to have children doesn't mean the children themselves aren't oppressed. Children lack rights, they lack autonomy, their abuse is extremely normalized; they are consistently treated as objects, objects you can own or mold into people or deny the personhood of. Etc.
This doesn't mean you have to take care of kids if you don't want to. This also doesn't mean they have to be treated 1:1 with adults - this means you have to recognize they are oppressed and not contribute to it.
