Answer 1

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

Well, according to my husband, boys are easier. All you have to do with them is keep them from killing themselves ie: riding their bike down a huge hill, eating gross stuff, you know, boy stuff.
With girls it's a lifetime of worry. Is that too low cut, who are her friends, is this boy nice to her, is her fiance gonna work and take care of her, is her husband treating her and her children good. THings like that. I have a lifetime of worry. One girl and one on the way.

Answer 2

Well basically they are both children in any way...
But boys are the hardest and girls are also hard because they are so sensetive that it is hard both ways!

Answer 3

I think it really depends on the gender of the parent you are asking. I am a father of three girls and a boy. My daughters pretty much know that I know little or nothing about being a girl and that I have a huge soft spot for them, so they tend to take advantage. My son seems to do the same thing to my wife. Regardless, I wouldn't change a thing.

Answer 4

They are both hard. Just because raising children is the hardest job in the world. But you learn to love both genders sooner or later.

Answer 5

my mom had 3 girls and one boy , she said that us girls where the hardest , and i have heard alot of others say the same . best reason ive ever heard to justify this is ,,,,, with a son you only have to worry about him ,, with a girl you have to worry about every one elses sons ! (i had to clean up the vocab. so not to upset anyone , but you get the idea )

Answer 6

Oh the question... I am one of five boys ranging in age (currently) from 15 to 28. We're all pretty good kids, being raised by never divorced parents and living on a single teachers salary (not very much if you're thinking otherwise). We would get in the normal troubles and my mom would always say "If I had girls..." meaning the girls would behave better. I've found though, that girls tend to need more time and money invested over their lives (clothes, not to mention prom dresses, among other things). Then, there is of course, the ultimate deterent of having a girl... she can get pregnant. Yeah, I know, some guy had to get her pregnant, but, unfortunatly, the guy can always run away, the girl is kind of stuck with the kids depending on what she decides. This is all just my own ideas coming from a family of five boys though, a girl from a family of all girls may have completely different ideas.

Answer 7

i am alot more afraid with my daughter then my son. the reason is there is alot more things to be afraid of like her having a baby or raped and the seem to think the are always a older then they are. she she thinks she can do anything and she is only 12 . my son is easyer going just have to tell them about the birds and the bees and tell them that there is thing that men can do to them also . but its alot hard with a girl then a boy. my boys all potty traied easyer then my girls. Bottle breaking was hard for my girls also. i breast feed them for the first six mths and then a bottle and my oldest it was murder and my middle girl but my youngest daughter i dont now yet.lol but as far as breastfeed my boys was easyer then my girls also but harder to break from the breast. my youngest boy took 2 years to break from the breast. hope it help.

Raising kids is not a hard task when you have God as your foundation, your protector, and your provider. There is nothing too hard for God. If you are having trouble, talk to Him. He created them.
