Are daughters or sons easier to raise?

I come from a family of 5 children. I have 4 children of my own now, 2 boys & 2 girls. I seriously believe that the boys are way easier than the girls. It's not because of the whole thing with girls being more expensive. I just believe that my two girls are more radical than their brothers. My girls do things before thinking about it at all. Do you think boys are easier to raise than girls? What makes you believe this?

I think so too, boys are easier to raise. They are less moody and easily let things go than girl. I have 2 sons and one daughter. At one point in the girls' life, especially in teenager years, they are just simply nasty with their personality, but they do calm down after that.

I have to agree with you about the personality thing. My girls are 7 & 2 so only time will tell. LOL Thanks!!

My friends and i always have this discussion and my opinion on the matter is girls are easier. I have one daughter and two sons, my daughter being the eldest. She is and was always so quiet and listened so well. I had my second son and he is like the energizer bunny all day, i thought maybe he is just one of those kids with alot of energy-until i had my third child also a boy. Wow he has just as much energy as the second if not more. I also have looked at other boys in my circle of friends and family and all the boys are just energetic as i dont know what.

I agree boys are way easier than girls. Girls are so dramatic and everything is a crisis. Then you have those teen years when they are going through puberty when you'd like to lock them in the closet. I always said I'd take 10 of my son before I took another one of my daughter. So what do I do?...I marry a guy with a 6 year old daughter. So now she is almost 10 and I'm doing it all over again.
