You may be looking for antithesis vs antipathies.

On the other hand, I don’t have children but like having the rest of the day available, and it’s great to not necessarily be working when most businesses are open. I’d call that freedom pretty cool, especially if you’re in an area where that saves you commute time in rush hour.

I respect individuals who value time with their kids in addition to having a serious career. My father was too busy chasing C-suite positions and running Iron Man races to spend time with his six kids.

Antithesis. Of course. I'll edit my comment. I certainly respect those who choose to have kids but not something I ever planned or plan to do. Of course, now I'm in my mid 40s that ship, as far as I'm concerned, has sailed (not saying I couldn't father kids but no teenager wants a dad who is in the 50s/60s).
