I didn't say that is not sad. Or rather, that in itself wouldn't be sad, it would only be sad if they then also would be unhappy about having children.
Also, I'd say not having kids is missing some kind of experience you can not have otherwise, whereas having kids doesn't really make you miss out on things you could not have otherwise (unless you count stuff like "partying hard for ten years of my life instead of just 3 years"). In that sense I'd say it is sad. Of course it is not the only sad thing in the world.
