[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I highly doubt the parents are saying this in FRONT of said boys. [/quote] I was very aware as a young child that my parents really, really wanted their third child to be a boy. They talked about it a lot, and, yes, in front of the two girls they already had. I am sure they aren’t the only parents in history to have done this. [/quote] My parents did this and when they got the boy I became superfluous. I always felt a bit unwanted. Kids know whether you tell them or not by the way you behave.[/quote] Exactly. I always knew that they would have preferred a boy to me. OTOH, when the boy they finally got had serious learning disabilities, suddenly I got all the attention a boy would have received, which really made a difference I think in what I have ended up accomplishing in life.
