To parents

Boys are more active daredevils, more mischief when young (grade school) but not to a degree that it makes them a whole lot more challenging or anything. I don't know about teens yet, but I have heard girls are more challenging than boys at that age. Not sure how accurate that is, though.
In general, I'd say both about the same.

Conventional wisdom says you have to worry more about boys getting injured and girls getting pregnant. Fudge conventional wisdom. Trying to be a good parent so that your kids turn out ok is every good parent's ever-present and biggest concern.

I have something else to say - I don't know, I am currently raisng a little girl but I have no idea about little boys.

Does one have to be a parent to have an opinion here? I think boys and girls are equally hard.

I'm not a parent.

I'm not raising a boy, but I imagine that both are challenging..

One thing I have noticed since becoming a parent is the extent to which adults treat children differently based on their gender and teach children how to behave and react based on their gender. Little girls don't want to be princesses because it's in their genes and my daughter is no less 'rough and tumble' then any boy her age.

I am not a parent. But from my experience growing up with a brother, I don't think one is really easier than the other. Both have their challenges. I think fathers often have more difficulty in their relationships with their sons, whereas mothers have more trouble with their daughters. Although with the sons it tends to be while they're at home, whereas with the daughters it tends to be once they've left home.

I have two boys, and two girls. I worried about them all. The worry is the same. They're both challenges to say the least. My being a female, I felt I always needed to understand my sons, trying to find how they think. They did come to me when it came to personal issues, about girls, or actually anything. I conflicted with the girls on some things, and boys on other things. I love them all, each individual.

From what my mom says I'm thinking it's a girl. I don't know. Not my problem.

Tell you what, ask me after I have kids and they are grown. I might be able to tell you then.
(I don't have kids yet. )

It would be easy to raise a girl than it would be with boys, boys are bratts and mean to the other kids

Linda I work with teenage girls the part time job i am working at and yes they are giggly and silly and yet they do
such a good job and they are fun to work with and easy to get along with, they do things that all girls do and yes
they have boyfriends as well and I love working with them and so does my boss Diane
Teenage boys take more chances and they gamble with their lives than girls do oh believe me Linda there are
boys next door here and they are born to be wild and looney

Yes Crayons your mom is right it is girls indeed boys they have so much testosterone all that energy and gee they
are the biggest pain yet while girls they do slap each other and they can be rough as well

In my family it's me who is the difficult child - and I have two older brothers. But I believe that comes from them only being eleven months apart and four years older than me. They're both quite close. So are me and Ste, but that's because of his character.

I think girls are easier (I have a boy - lol)

Boy

Neither are easy I am sure, but boys have simpler housekeeping needs than girls!

Never been a parent. I am guessing both would suck. Girl would be harder (if you're a guy), plus theres that risk of pregancy thing, but if you have a boy you'd have to worry about higher car insurance rates.

I`m not a parent, but my perspective from working in a daycare is that boys are often much easier. Not always - there are definitely exceptions - but girls are just so catty and sneaky. When the boys have a problem I know exactly what it is and can deal with it accordingly.

Other.
I have nothing to say

I'm not a parent!

I have boys and up to and right now they are easy to raise and love

Boys. Girls are bratty, whiny and cry alot. Boys you can beat into submission.

A CHICKEN IS EASIER TO RAISE

Boys become more independant at an earlier age. Disciplining boys is a good bare bottom spanking
