i just found out that im having a baby boy.. do they bring as much trouble as my family says they do?

Answer 1

Babies "bring trouble" just because they are a lot of work. they can also bring love and joy to your life. Boys are easier to raise than girls, IMO, because of society, so be glad you have a boy first!

Answer 2

LOL!!! Oh i have never laughed so hard!!!

Boys are boys and Girls are girls, and each are their own kind. Any child will be whatever you teach them to be. You want good kids, either boy or girl, you have to be a good parent. Children dont react or behave any way other that how theyre taught to, or expected to.

I have nannied for years, and have found that on average girls give me a harder time than boys, simply because most parents treat them like goddesses and dont teach them how to be polite and well behaved.

You just need to decide how you're going to raise a well behaved human being who can be a functional part of society, and then do it! Expect your baby boy to be the best, most well behaved child ever, and thats what he will try to be, teach him how to, and he will always be a better person for it.

I have a two months until we find out what we're having... and i cannot wait... personally iam hoping for a boy, so i can understand your question.

Answer 3

No, they don't.
A boy is just as equal as a girl, of course they might be some trouble, because they're just babies. But once they're a little bit older like 2 - 5 & stuff. Then things will get better.
Hope I helped....

Answer 4

ARE YOU KIDDING? Whoever has told you that boys are more work than girls is smoking something. Girls are the worst!!! I know, I am one!

You are going to save a butt load of money girl. Boys don't cost you an arm and a leg in clothing/accessories/shoes/nicknack's/make-up/hair and beauty products and/or services. They don't get pregnant, they earn more per hour than girls do, you don't have to worry, as much, about them getting raped or molested. They certainly aren't as dramatic, and emotional as girls are. And here's a really great 'selling point', you and your husband [if you're the wife of course], more than likely, won't have to pay for his wedding! That right there will save you a grip of cash. The list just goes on and on...Good luck!

Answer 5

Wow, what kind of trouble do they bring? Are you expecting the Antichrist?
I have a boy and 2 girls, and I LOVE having my boy. It is so much fun to have that different perspective on things.

Answer 6

My first child is a boy, after having him I thought I only wanted boys! Now I have one of each and really they are both amazing kids. My son was a wonderful baby, but I gave him a lot of attention and cuddles.

Answer 7

I have two...they can be a real pain, but I wouldn't trade them for anything. It helps if you've got a good partner (like my wife) to balance the load...if it was just me, I'm not sure I'd be able to handle it...Besides all that, I've heard girls are much harder to deal with, especially when they get older. Another thing that helps us is that since we have two, they kind of entertain each other...Congrats on your expected baby...he'll be here before you know it!

Answer 8

Ha ha ha ha. Old wives tales!!!! Boys only bring as much trouble as you let them bring. The same with girls!!! You just have that little guy and love him, and enjoy him every single day. What a gift!!!!!! Enjoy!!!

Answer 9

no i believe boys are easier to raise. The reason why i don't ever want to have girls is what if one day when she gets 15/16 years old and ends up pregnant i know i sure aint watching anyone elses kids.
But if my son gets someone pregnant also then he will have to deal with it but i am not raising my grandkids

Answer 10

I have one three year old boy and another one on the way ( gosh anyday now! ) They are a lot of fun. They are difficult at times, but that is just a given... plus they have tons of energy. But you just need to take it one day at a time. Dont worry, boys are fun too! :)
