Would you choose all girls or all boys.

If you had to choose which would it be?

I heard that boys are easier when older and girls are easier when younger. I have one girl, my oldest, and 5 boys k'h, so I would want all girls, so I could see which one I like better Wink

Probably boys because they are cheaper and easier to handle in emotional side of things.
(girls need loads of clothes, shoes, hair, makeup, jewelry etc and they are really emotional)
BUT they are messier and harder physically (more active, football etc).

So I guess a mix will be just fine Smile

If you want an easy life don't have kids.

If I had to choose it would be only girls, but that's probably because I'm a girl.. But I'm happy I have boys , they are great too! ( neither are easier then the other)

Also it seems that boys don't keep the same connection to parents after getting married. Your daughter home is not the same as your sons. It doesn't feel like home. I know from the other side. When mil would come after baby was born and everything was flying everywhere it was not fun. Although I love her n all.

Oh and raisin I'm selfish I want the benefits of having kids and an easy life oxymoron I know. I was actually asking because wondering if the next baby will be easier . Razz

I want a mix of both. Although I have to agree with chocolate chips boys are a lot cheaper. Boys can also help just like girls. My mil has mostly boys and they all know how to cook, clean, do laundry and a lot more.

I love my girls but I find them to be a much bigger handful than my boys.

theyre always needing things, always whining and having petty girl fights with each other. by the boys, a pair of shoes is good as long as it fits and is comfortable, fights dont last that long and definitely no whining

on the other hand, the girls play games that are a lot quieter

that being said, I would want it exactly as G-d blessed me, pretty much an even amount of both

I love both, but if I had to I would choose all girls.
Once boys get older, they are out of the house more. Girls are out a lot too but they keep coming back to home base. People with all boys tell me they have very quiet houses when the boys grow up (besides for when they bring their friends home). I don't think I'd like that.

I would want girls! Boys get married and practically move in to the girl's parents. I also think that it is much harder to raise a boy in the right derech.

Up until when my daughter was born I would have said all boys (nothing to do w/ easier or not). Once my daughter was born I realized that I never could have been totally contented without having a daughter (and I didn't feel that way when my son was born earlier). Having a daughter - for me at least - is such an irreplaceable thing. So I say all girls if I had to choose.

I have only girls and I love it that way....I definitely wouldnt change it around, and talk to my friend who has only boys, she cant wait to have the girls rolling in.

I think a mix of both. I love dressing my girls but the whining and the nagging and the crying.......... The boys are active but they are fine with whatever is happening then.

Girls. I was convinced my first would be a boy but when she was born and I found out she was girl I was in heaven. I love having a daughter, I think girls are easier to relate to since I am also a girl and I don't think a son and mother can ever be as close as a daughter and mother.

ALL BOYZ

I would never want all of one gender. But if I reaally, reaaaally had to choose it would probably be girls...the answer might change from day to day, though.

Whatever Hashem gave me. B"H for healthy children.
I have both but predominantly sons. Each kid boy or girl is a world & a relationship onto themselves.
