Those who WERE parents were 100% in support of Joel, with no exceptions.
I played TLOU the first time when I was single, and I hated Joel at the end and the damage he did against a possible cure. When you get to the end of the fight and have to shoot the doctor I sat there for awhile waiting, seeing if there was any other option. The 2nd time I played was when it was remastered (the first remaster anyway) and by then I was a father. That time I had zero hesitation in blasting the doctor in the face, and I had no conflicting emotions going on while watching the final cutscenes
