[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Broad generalization, but rings true in my life; beware the mom of all girls or just one girl.

I have two girls with a boy in the middle.  Somehow a DS brings some balance and sanity.

In thinking about my close "mom friends" those I've met through preschool, ES, MS and now HS, all have at least one DS.

I'll go out on a limb and say that the Queen Bee moms of all girls are the biggest social engineers - and this encompasses their own social life; are very cliquish themselves.[/quote]

If gender plays into this at all I'd bet you'd see a stronger correlations with the gender of the Mom's siblings rather than their children.

I've got only girls and am about as far from a social engineer as it's possible to get.  But I've also got a brother and no sisters and am a bit of a tomboy. And I think having a brother had far more to do with shaping who I am as a mother than the fact that my kids happened to be girls.[/quote]

This could be. I have lots of brothers and two boys; I have no idea what these people are talking about. To me it like this thread is about a bad teen movie and not real life at all.[/quote]
