[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From my perspective, having one of each was appealing.  [b]I'm glad I have a DD and I'm glad my DH has a DS.[/b]  I like having both to parent.

BUT when I look at it from my kid's perspectives, I am sometimes sad my DD won't have a sister like I do.  Women hold families together in different ways than men do.  Obviously I'm less sad my DS won't have a brother, since that's not a relationship I have.

But no matter what someone is missing something.  It's best to enjoy what you've got and do your best without worrying about things that are outside of your control.[/quote]

Interesting.  I'm glad my daughters have my husband.  I am super close to my dad and that's the dynamic I most wanted to represent in our family.  [/quote]

But you cant plan dynamics that way. So much is dependent on personality. And, I think to a degree at least with grandparents, who comes first.  I know very few if any families where the oldest grandchild isn't favored (even if not openly).[/quote]
