I just don't like most children...

Lately, I am growing more and more spiteful of children, well, most children. They do things that irritate the crap out of me. I've decided really early in life that I wouldn't have children, because, well, I will admit I'm too selfish and unstable mentally to be able to care for and love a kid.
Now, I'm in a long distance relationship with this girl who lives in the UK. We constantly talk online via webcam. The problem is, she's got several flatmates, one of whom has a 3 year old girl. Every night when we are online together, this brat keeps interrupting our conversation, and is constantly screaming, crying, everything. I am getting so fed up with it.
I think what bothers me the most is that my gf puts up with it and DEFENDS the child. I know I will get comments about that statement, but let's keep on with the subject at hand. The more I have to deal with this girl, the more children in general piss me off. When I'm out, I will see some child like that girl screaming and being just plain obnoxious.
Of course there are some kids I'm ok with...the ones who DON'T get in the way. They are few and far between, but they are there.
I'm afraid because of this child my gf and I will break up. I can't take much more of her interruptions. And I HATE it when my gf lets her talk to me. I hate having to make conversation with that little twerp. I'll admit I gave her the finger one day, and it made me surprisingly happy.

Honestly, this is more of an anger issue than an issue with kids. I hate feeling hateful. But damnit I can't help it. I feel even worse when I'm forced to smile at the little snot.
Do you think it's normal?

It can be hard to love children, they can be over-demanding, obnoxious and selfish.

Bur more importantly, doesn't she know of your distaste for children? You shouldn't try to build a relationship by hiding parts of your personality, that way you'll never truly be loved or love and will live in an unpleasant lie.

No, she knows I don't like children. She thinks it's "a phase". I've never hid that from her or anyone. She doesn't really take it seriously, and I'm trying as hard as I can to get her to understand that I'm dead serious. I'm afraid if I can't get her to understand my feelings I won't be able to be with her anymore. I can't be with someone who thinks it's evil to hate kids.
Wow, you have absolutely no idea about me at all, and are REALLY missing the point.
Not everyone who dislikes kids is bad, and you're basically saying anyone who doesn't like kids doesn't deserve a relationship. Honey, I am definitely mature for a long distance relationship, we have been together for about 2 wonderful years. And we have decided recently NOT to have kids, and to remain childfree, and she is happy with the idea and was actually glad I brought up the subject. She really, in her heart, didn't want kids, and she was only saying she wanted them because she thought I secretly DID want them.
And don't you f**king dare tell me I have no idea how to deal with kids. I have worked around children for many, many years, as a babysitter, nanny, etc. One will do almost ANYTHING for money if one needs it enough. I know how they work, and the ones I've been around are little demons.

So you can take your republican, child-loving self away from my question.
