[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why must one make it a competition? Every child boy or girl comes with their own unique personality and traits. Any child can present challenges regardless of gender.  I am appalled at some women claiming how girls are so complex and emotional and they really wanted boys.  Why peg one entire gender against the other because of your own personal experience?  It’s sickening and anyone who does that probably needs a good amount of therapy. [/quote]

You are projecting. I wanted boys because I had a difficult relationship with MY mom. Of course it is my personal experience, this is all I have. Parenting is not a crash course that one learns from the hallmark channel and self-help books. I also strongly believe that my mom was not the only mom who wanted a mini-her with similar, but better decision making skills. Go to the Teen forum and read about the mom who disagrees with her daughter's clothing because she used to dress modestly at her age or the one who is having a crisis because her teen is having sex at 16 and didn't wait until 24, like the mom. I see it over and over again.   [/quote]
