It’s one thing to say it’s difficult to parent. It’s very hard to be a parent. It is another entirely to say that non-parents are “privileged”. Using privileged is a total and inaccurate misappropriation of identity politics discourse to weaponize the unpaid work of parenting.

It's like if we looked at sickness and disability and said "Non-doctors are privileged relative to doctors" like that was the important thing and not "The well and the abled are privileged relative to the disabled and sick"

It may be that ableism among the currently healthy who don't appreciate doctors means doctors don't get paid enough and we should pay them more That's one possibility It may ALSO mean doctors have too much power over patients and some doctors need to get fired
