It is impossible for you to know whether it's “the same fulfillment” if you have not actually been in both situations.

Here's the problem with that: there's the chance that if you have children you will hate them. Probably more so if you've been pressured into having children. This is not a socially acceptable response, so you usually only ever see this response in anonymous "off my chest" spaces.
And if you hate your children, you're doing them a vast disservice.
There is no moral imperative to have children, and I wish people would stop pressuring the voluntarily childless into having children.

I agree with everything you said, but that doesn't change the fact that the post to which you're replying is also true.
If I always rode my bike, but didn't have a car, I couldn't really say "riding a bike is as much fun as driving a car".
