* ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'': Principal Snyder. Giles even asks him why he chose such a profession if he hates children so much. We eventually get something of an explanation toanswer, the effect that he was the kid who was always picked on; presumably he became a [[Sadist Teacher|school principal]] by way of revenge.
* ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]'': Jean-Luc Picard is a subversion. Children make him wickedly uncomfortable, due to difficulty relating to them and reminders of his strained relationship with his family; he doesn't hate them. [[Character Development|He gets better as the series goes along, though]]. A [[Teleporter Accident|transporter accident]] that meant he spent most of an episode [[Fountain of Youth|as a twelve-year-old]] might have helped.
* ''[[How I Met Your Mother]]'': While not cruel or anything to them, Robin isn't particularly fond of babies. In addition to being aware of how messy and stressful they are, she has a phobia about them due to their large eyes and that soft spot on the top of their heads.
