who is harder to raise: boys or girls?

who do you think? i am undecided :-\.

Every individual is different. No use lumping massive hordes of people together under one label unless you want someone to be complicit with genocide.

For me, it's a toss up between boys and girls.

I am very easy to raise. You just need a nice pair of boobs.

Every guy is easy to raise if you have those requirements.

i'll just leave this here.

girls are harder imo
just because of the worries you dont get with boys, rape, pregnancy etc

I agree with this argument, although boys can get into fights & peer pressure induced "petty crimes", girls are the tougher gender to take care of because of virginity &/or pregnancy issues. Also, women are more susceptible to reputational ridicule if they got raped, pregnant or got STIs or worse AIDS. With men, even getting sent to Juvie hall could be a "twisted" sign of coolness.

Boys can be very annoying and disobedient. Girls are more prone to complaining (I do most of the time). It's a lose-lose situation, but girls are more expensive to take care of because they need clothes, jewlry, shoes, and other crap. It all comes down to how you raise the child.

use the rod of discipline on both while their young and they'll be easy when they hit the teens plus its up to your parental skills.

Discipline? Yes. Rod? WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!

What's that saying...If you have a boy, you only have to worry about one penis.
If you have a girl, you have to worry about every penis.

100% agree with Tirith

I agree with this, but explain why the child was punished & also for the love of God don't use things like a three inch wide 10 millimeter thick iron belt on a 5 year old kid's back :P because that is obviously child abuse.

No what's wrong WITH YOU!?I bet you were beat up by your drunk ass dad too as a kid weren't you :PI was, simply because I was born different which was why I absolutely hate his guts & will be happy the moment he dies! But my mom? she never did that, but she did spank me, or did other forms of discipline when I did things I wasn't supposed to. Then she'd explain why I was punished & that it is for my own good.

its a figure of speech...

I used to get hit with a wooden spoon if I was bold...I think girls because every single girl I know went through a 'difficult' stage with their parents during their teenage years. My sister is a case in point.

And as a father, you get stuck with a wife and daughter together. And maybe it's not true, but I'm pretty sure that women who live together start to sync their cycles. I'm feeling bad for my coworker, he has two daughters. In about 10 years he's going to be hiding in a bomb shelter once a month.

it really depends on like everything. And I don't want to be sexist or anything

if you're undecided, you could always raise a hermaphrodite :p
