[quote=Anonymous][quote]OP here. I clearly didn't express myself well. As I said in another post-I was being dramatic. However, in general boys are much higher risk for quite a few disabilities and illnesses than girls. A male fetus is less likely to make it to birth. You get enough numbers bombarded at you and you read enough studies and you start to think "It's a miracle boys make it to adulthood." Hopefully that gives you more of an idea of what I am conveying. I am not up crying all night about this. [b]I have been told quite a few times I come accross as laid back and mellow (I personally would NOT go that far). [/b]Do the numbers concern me? Yes, and I think it's worth discussing WTF is going on. Wanted to spark a discussion about males being so much more vulnerable and why. As someone said a lot is linked to the Y chromosome. [/quote] Well, we agree on that much. On the other hand, girls have to deal with the little demons that are teenage boys (and adult males, for that matter), so it's hard to say who has the harder row to hoe. [/quote]
