I heard males are, from people who've had both female and male genders, but the 2 male children I have now, are a piece of work sometimes, and I would think it just depends on the child's personality and such......I wouldn't know about females though........

I have two of each (2 boys, 2 girls). I love raising the girls because I love the dresses, etc. The boys are way too rowdy for me, constantly fighting and wrestling. As far as raising them, they are about equal!! I do think that girls cost more than boys though!!

True, but I showed my girls the value of a dollar very young so when I say " I don't have enough for that" they won't throw a fit.

I think both gender is hard to raise. Because there are so many ways to raise the children and every parents have different ways. Some might think boys are harder but some might think girls are harder to raise.

I would say both & neither. It really depends on their personalities and your personality. I have 1 girl and 3 boys. While my daughter was very easy when she was little, now that she's 11 she's quite a challenge. My boys have all been rowdy little ones, more challenging at a young age than my daughter. But my oldest son, who is now 10, is very easy to deal with.

I totally agree each of my kids has a different personality, and I never took into consideration my own personality thank you

I don't think one gender is harder to raise than another. Both boys and girls have different challenges at different stages.

I think both were same as they all will go through more or less the same process.

I believe in the early years it is easier to raise girls. But once they get older i think that boys are easier to raise.

Girls are harder because with boys all you have to worry about is your boy. With girls you have to worry about your girl and everyone elses boy.
