Hello everyone
Good morning n happy sunday

Not true. No one is more important dan d oda

arrrrrghhhh! not again

iphanyiuma:
Is it true that a male child is more important than a female child??

...a man gave birth to a boy 2 years ago and even before the child left the hospital the father killed a ram and distributed drink I for one drank 2 star.. but just last week his wife gave birth and he was just normal and when I enquired from him bout the welfare of his wife he told me she had given birth to a girl I jokingly requested for a bottle of beer and he said and I quote "I go high you wen my wife born boy again"....so that has always got me thinking.

I for one love women and think they contribute positively to the society wen you take a look at the likes of chimamanda adichie and the rest of em..

and think they are more supportive than men...

It's not true. Both sexes are equally important, albeit for different reasons. Think of it like a car; no matter how important you think the engine is, it's equally important to have tires, working brakes, a fuel tank, etc. Male and female children have different roles to play in the family and society at large.

Your friend is just ignorant of the wider implications of his opinion and statement. That little girl will grow up to become a wife and mother. She's supposed to be given the tools to be a pillar of society she should be. I don't value my father more than my mother, I respect them in different ways and for different things because their roles in shaping me were quite different.

Touche

You might to back up there. Let's not go there.

In Oliver de Coque voice *Amuru nwoke amuru nwaanyi, nwa bu nwa.* I've got a pretty daughter that I'm working my socks off to give the best, I do see her as my LIGHT. Its never about the sex of a child rather what He/She turns out to be

You should leave the village and come to a city. That way you will stop meeting silly people who ask daft questions.

A child is a child. Either male or female. The most important thing is how a child is raised. May we all give birth and raise prosperous children in the right path whom will make us proud parents. It all by God grace.

Another poor attempt at creating a he versus she bashing session.

@op: have you even had your bath yet, today?

Say NO to gender discrimination!

A Child is a Child wether Male or Female.

What you should be worrying about is how to give them a better life.

Only an ignorant man does that..

A child is important, be it male,or female..

You people don't get tired ni .. Gosh

None is important than the other. They both hav their different roles and functions. "It depends on the one that would be more useful to u as a parent in the future." - Go read the novel -- THE WICKEDNESS OF MAN - by Victor Oguejiofor
But on a second thought, in Royal families, when the king is ageing and still he hasn't gotten any male child, it will be obvious that a calamity is looming ahead. In as much the king does not want his royalty to fade away... HE NEEDS SOMEONE TO CARRY ON THE KINGLY DINASTY
so you can see the rate at which he desperately hunts for an heir, even going to the extent of marrying many wives.
Now lets look back to our home and family. A father would be deeply troubled if after giving birth to 3 to 4 daughters yet no Male child, coz the girls will end up Answering Mrs Ojo, Mrs Okoro, Mrs Emeka, so you get! who will bear his surname? (Guys shey u no what am talking about here?) I sincerely believe no sane father will be happy to see his lineage come to an abrupt end!
So u see the light of the matter
And before u begin bashing me, i didn't say that one is better than the other.
IMHO!
