[quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm also the mom of two boys, and I would have loved to have a daughter. I had an amazing relationship with my late mom. But here's the thing - my boys are now teenagers and I'm SO happy that I don't have daughters. Other than clothes shopping and makeup/hair (none of which is a massive interest for me in my 50s), I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything good. And unfortunately there is so much drama with teenage girls - most of the parents I know are dealing with eating disorders, anxiety, gender uncertainty, substance abuse. My kids have their own issues but nothing like that. We talk all the time and do lots of stuff together. Maybe I'd be closer with daughters, maybe not - either way they are eventually going to go off in the world and establish their own lives, and either way that will be hard for me and great for them.
