I have just done some searches on the net and stumbled across an internet site that allows women to "air" their disaapointment at the sex of their new born/unborn child. Some have had ultrasounds only to come away extremely disappointed because the gender of their
child is not what they were hoping for.
Rather than accept what God has blessed them with, (even a healthy, normal baby) they come away angry and frustrated because they wanted a "boy" when they were blessed with a "girl" or blessed with a "girl" when they wanted a boy.
I was horrified to read of this.
I am speaking from a person who has suffered 10 years of infertility, so maybe that's why I feel the pain more for I would Long for just "one" baby, the gender is irrevelant.
I just wanted to hear other's opinion. It's ok to say you agree with them. I am just curious to know. Some even go through expensive treatments(invasive like IVF, but more complex) just so they can chose the "sex" of their baby. thanks!

I don't get it. I think God gives you what you are meant to have. With gender selection and cloning too many people are trying to play God. My wife always wanted children and couldn't have them so I feel for you and understand how you feel about this. Anyone who is blessed with a beautiful, healthy child should be thankful for it no matter what gender it is. We would have adopted but both are disabled and unable to take care of a child due to our physical limitations.It is heartbreaking sometimes.

I think that is horrible that someone would be disappointed with the sex of their baby, whatever happened to just being happy that your baby was healthy? I don't believe that people should just be able to choose the sex of their baby except under certain circumstances where there is a hereditary disorders such as haemaphilia that effects a male only.
Is this what the world has come to? people these days never seem to be happy with what they have, they always want better, a bigger TV, a newer car, surpassing the jones's. We've run out of wants that now we are getting picky with what we want in our children?
I was blessed with a beautiful boy, I never found out what sex my child was before he was born because regardless of whether he was male or female, he was my baby and he was healthy and thats all that mattered.

i imagine persons must have the ultimate determination for his or her reproduction conduct. I also imagine governments might want to in a roundabout way intervene with those alternatives. notwithstanding, governments can and may upload incentives when you consider that those alternatives finally impact the way ahead for the governments. So if a authorities thinks there must be better people, that's going to subsidize babies. If it thinks there must be a lot less people, that's going to tax babies. If it thinks too many people %. a particular gender over yet another so it turns right into a situation, it may subsidize the different gender to fix it. this way, man or woman determination is secure, notwithstanding the authorities can structure its personal demographics too.

I think in some circumstances it would be more acceptable to voice disappointment. A friend of mine wanted a big family wih a mix of boys and girls. She had three boys, and after that was longing of a little girl. Just one. She had two more boys. She loves her boys unconditionally, but getting five boys and not a single girl... it can be heartbreaking.

Jeez, I was just glad both of my kids came out normal and healthy. Choosing the sex of either of my kids is something my wife and I would never even consider, but I won't pass judgement on someone who does....
BTW My wife and I got one of each
