It is unfortunate and as such, I decided that it is easier to avoid the situations as close to 100% as possible.

So what if they get indignant? People are assholes, it isn't just parents. It seems like maybe you had a bad experience or two and then just decided that all parents are unreasonable assholes and that all children are incapable of behaving.
Really, i understand that kids can be annoying sometimes, it's just that your criticism seems rather arbitrary. Many of them could be as accurately leveled at drunk people, but i imagine you're more willing to accept their behavior, or at the very least, not avoid places where you might come into contact with them.
But you know, before i had a kid, i could have really cared less about them. I was certainly more prone to being annoyed by them then to cut them some slack.
