"And I'd encourage everybody to be open about their plans to have kids or not."

I have been asked on two separate occasions by two different bosses making a decision about hiring me on a non-temporary basis about my plans regarding children. I was 18 and 20, and am a woman. No way was I going to say anything other than "I hate kids" regardless of the truth. I don't want an employer making decisions based on my ability to carry children until the day comes that I decide I want a child.

Though I'm happy that no one as disrespectful of their employees and immature as the OP is going to hire me.
