When you have children. Does it make a difference if it's a girl or a boy? I have overheard my dad saying to my mom that he want to have a baby girl. I guess that he is not satisfy with the 3 of us all boys. Does it affect your expectation? Is there a difference between a male and a female? I think that we are all human and deserve equal chance. What do you think my fellow mylotters??

Overall I didn't have a preference when I had my children. I always knew that I wanted a boy and a girl. The only time that I did have a preference was when I was pregnant with my little one. I already had a three-year-old daughter and I really wanted to have a boy. Luckily, he was a boy and that made me so very happy. The only difference that it would have made in my life is that had he been a girl I would probably either be pregnant or trying to get pregnant with another baby at this point because I'd always dreamed of having a boy.

Wow. That's a very inspiring story of your life. I truly believe that if you have dream of having a girl or boy as a baby it would make a difference in your preference. Well, thank you very much for your comment. Have a nice day.

I agree that we are all human and had the same right to be born alive.. A baby boy or a girl is truly a GOD'S GREATEST BLESSING TO EVERY PARENT.. AND the gender does not matter as long as it is healthy.. Of course it is true that some expectant parents have their own personal wish regarding the gender of their coming baby but i also believe that more than the gender what they have in their heart is the hope that the baby may go out healthy and normal. Equal happiness it will bring to the parents whether its a boy or a girl...

I think that you are right. Gender really doesn't matter as long as the baby is healthy and fine. Thanks for responding. Happy mylotting.

I am a primary school teacher and so I like both girls and boys. Children are delightful and my favorite age range is five to seven years old. As a parent I did hope to have a girl and a boy. However I had two boys and then a girl. I am sure your parents love you and your two brothers. You didn't get a sister so that is what they regret. I feel they are happy with you lads.

That's really great. I am pretty sure that you understand the child's growth and development in that age group that you have mention since you are a primary school teacher. Thanks for the advice. Ya, I am really sure they are happy with us around. Have a nice day.

Well when I have kids I dont think I'll care really whether it is a boy or a girl. I know my boyfriend has told me he really wants boys if we were to ever get married. And I am totally okay with it, but I do want one girl, at least, lol. but mostly, I just want kids, I dont care if they are a boy or girl.
