Should childfree people receive tax credits for being responsible in not procreating and adding to the burden children place on society?

Why pay taxes to public schools when you won't have any use for them as a childfree non-breeder?

Children are not a burden, they are the future of mankind.
Every one benefits from children. While they are children, adults who look after them, teach them, tend them, have meaningful employment , putting their wages back into the society you live in.
When the children become adults they go to work, paying taxes. They teach children and apprentices. They drive trucks that deliver everything you have in your house.
They plant the fruit and vegetables you consume to survive. They run sheep and cattle and goats and pigs and...
Where would the world be without children?
For a while, a bunch of geriatrics confined to wheelchairs and beds because there will be no adult children to care for them.
Then there would be no more live humans upon the earth.
I agree that might be a good thing. Giving the natural world back to the critters.

Or is it ONLY white babies that get to grow up and do those things? Because this, this is genocide.

@WalksWith genocide ? Are you referring to the Jews and Palestinians ? (Who are BOTH Caucasian ).
When the Jews started to rule them they were 200k in numbers. Under their rule there are now 3 million . Thats the worst case of genocide ever !
