mactoni91: Ma english aint dat good sha
bt i'ld try ma best
A female child is more difficult tew raise...
From d books i ve read and from what ma lecturers has taught me
especially, in DEVELOPMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY,
gurls tend tew develop more rapidly than their counterpart
i.e, d onset of puberty and d transition of puberty tew adolecent..
During this period, they tend tew face many challenges...
Challenges like managing new body developments(menses,breast,etc)
and how tew manage peer pressures ( if ma friends re having sex and they want me tew, amma give it a try else they ma push me out)
since learning is a relative permanet change in behaviour due tew experience,observation or mimicing. Believe it/nt we tend tew learn more from our peers than frm our parents and siblings.
in terms of weakness and strenght without adding sentiments, d females re weak in decision making( wen under strong pressures) compared tew their counterparts..
Wit these challenges, pregnancy may occur( wen trying tew gratify inate sexual drives)
they wanna join their friends in fashion/make-ups exhibitions i.e, ( making u spend more finacial resources while dey attract the pregnators)...
With all these, I feel bringing up a female child is more complicated unlike their counterpart.
Male child also have their transition period,what can you say about those male that start smoking marijuana with their friends at tender age while ends up agberos and armed robbers.
Girls going into relationship is certainly not an excuse to term them difficult to raise.

chucky234: female children are special,I go to almost everywhere including business meeting with my daughter since she was 6 month old,police even attempted to arrest me one afternoon as I was driving to Ikeja with her in my car without the mother with us. She is just 3yr but very brilliant and inquisitive,I can't swap her for any male child.
That is the key point..

If i have a Daughter, i will be very Liberal with what she is and is not allowed to do with her VaJina.

Err.......i no gree

if your daughter is a ho, it brings disrepute to your entire family.

Plus, how will she then get married off to a good man if she has a reputation as a slut?

What if she gets pregnant, and becomes somebody's baby mamma?

Is that something you will be happy/proud of?

meggieblac: I take it most of the posters here have not really seen a bad son. From my personal experiences, i'll rather have a troublesome daughter than a son. Talk about drugs(especially all dis 'igbo' and oda concoctions)which is becoming d fad among young boys. Bad company dat lead dem 2 perform such atrocities you'll b shocked if you knew because d fact is dat guys get mind more than gals. And i'm talking about children whose parents did d best 2 raise dem up well.
its like u've not seen gurls dat take drugs 2...wait till she get a boifwend dat takes hard drugs...after becoming a junkie she wld bring a child fathered by a junkie 2.

I take it most posters have not seen a truely bad son. From my personal experiences, i shiver at the taught of raising a troublesome son. D fact is that guys get 'mind' pass girls and are more prone 2 taking hard drugs, joining bad associations that lead them to commit such attrocities that you'll b shocked if you knew. Raising a son even with the best efforts is so difficult, you need prayers. My family has been passing through hell over the years because of this. Without sentiments, i'll take a 'slut' daughter, terrible as it sounds than a killer/cultist/druggie/robber or whatever son.

If you can b sincere, how many girls take hard drugs compared to guys. Join robbery gangs, become agbero and the likes. Believe me, only experience will tell you.

Re: Male Child Versus Female Child,which Is Difficult To Raise? by salt1: 7:52am On Oct 16, 2012
I have two daughters and two sons. Each child is unique. I worry abt diff things for them. The girls: experimenting with sex with all the associated risks of pregnancy and HIV/AIDS,damaged reputation,low academic performance. So I start sex education early,at 9. We talk over crushes, flirting and the dangers of getting emotionally involved too early.
The issue with boys are even more serious and life_threatening: cultism, hard drugs,cheap sex and porn, violent gangs, distractions with electronic gagdets (PSP) that affect academic concentration.
But as I said, each child is unique and extremely lovable.

take every negative quality you have mentioned about bad boys and add estrogen to the mix (hormones, risks of pregancy, "im a grown woman on the same level as any adult even though i am 13" attitude) etc....would you REALLY prefer a girl child? grin grin

exactly. grin

My first born had better be a boy o! tongue
The only challenge I can think of would be to try to teach him to be a man without a positive and solid father figure. That is crucial when it comes to raising sons. (And daughters as well).
Re: Male Child Versus Female Child,which Is Difficult To Raise? by Nobody: 7:54am On Oct 16, 2012
Boys from 1-18 difficult to raise. After 18, call him, sit him down and talk to him as a man, he will listen...trust me. Girls from 1-15 easy to raise. After 15, you will be wasting your time as a father; here is where Moms would be needed. If you are not careful she might as well send you the father to jail. Typical response from girls above 15 " I am grown or I am old enough to take care of myself" Pastor Creflo Dollar is a living example.

Girls going into relationship its certainly not an excuse to term them difficult to raise.
study shows gurls tend tew develop faster than their counterpart...
Meaning, they move out with same sex(agemates) and d opposite sex who re far older than them.
With these, they re exposed tew dangers
ie, having older male friends who be good at manipulating and getting the best out of dem...
Now, tew d guys, we develop slowly bt steady...
I.e, as parents u can easily detect, correct or modify a maladaptive behaviour...

I'm a mother of two (not biological), a boy and a girl. I took them in after an unfortunate incident.The girl is easier to raise, maybe because the boy can be hyper-active sometimes. A boy-child, at a younger age can be controlled easily, but when he gets close to age 9, you need to be firm with him.

However, children are not difficult to raise. You just need to understand them. They are adults in a smaller version. My babies are adorable. I cry when they are ill. We laugh together, holding each other tight. It's a happy family.

igbo2011:
How is society based against women? You have to understand even though men have the best jobs we also have the worst jobs. Look for the most dangerous jobs and they are all male dominated. Also during wars men fight the vast majority of wars not women. Also if society was based against women then why is there so much women's health and breast cancer months? Or during the Titanic why did women and children get to go on the life boats and the men died? Just because the world is run by men doesn't mean it is run for men.

Hmmnn In the bible the woman caught committing adultery was she doing it alone? Where was the man?
Today if a guy has 3 girl friends he is hailed for his prowess but lets hear that for a girl her own don finish.
the society is indeed biased against girls.
Or why was Beijing Women's Conference of 1995 held?

Girl is very difficult to nurture. According to doctors, it was confirm that girls are more than boys, and also when given birth to child girls are enormous to boys evry broad day light.

I will like to streghten my point against girl.

1. Initially, at infant, when comes to buy baby materials for ur baby, the expenditure u wil spend on a boy is quit different from girl. Come to tink of it, there are some stuff whereby a baby girl need which is exception in case of the boy need. However the baby will need some amenities like bangle, ear ring, chain and some dresses exclusive for the female.

2. At childhood or adulthood, there is the expenditure begun. Then when parents is the full havoc to take in responsibility of their children.

i. Catering for the children.
Girl particular is very difficult to raise due to financial expensive. In case to pay for her financial basis like food money, tuition fee, her wears, cosmetics, underwear and some of non seen tax she wil like to collect from u.

ii. nurture or guardian of children.
Girl is very difficult to rear, in order to guide them from mayhem against the environment atmosphere/ circumstance.
If u will all agree wit me, 99% of woman is easy to convince cos of there greed and covetous to accumulate what they never worked for. Majority of ladies depend on man or sweet daddy shuld suppose not be so, this is rampant among our ladies. A girl of 10 is exposed even gotten expericence than that of ladies which very lousy. Apparently many of the parents do not care about the dresses their child put on, because they av battle against it severally, and it seemed their child don't to take heed and their will let it be. I strong disagree that many of the parent are in support of wat girl put on, bt the girls out there are obstinate cos of the peers the are keep.

SOLUTION TO REMEDY
If only the parent and monitor their Children with th intimate friend they minglin, cos most of them are instigated and dissuaded by their friend, if the parent can then keep their children against the bad friend the boys and specially the girl will listen to the gospel of there.

no one is easier over the other!
I would say in the beginning Boys are harder to raise because they tend to be a little bit more aggressive as babies but as they grow older they begin to calm down.
But girls on the other hand are usually better behaved then boys when they are younger, but once they hit there teenage years you will have to worry about them getting pregnant and the types of clothing they wear and also who they go out with. But if you raise them right you might not have to worry about all that. So that is why i think girls are harder.
