hmmm have 3 girls and 2 boys, the boys were the worst I found.
I was dreading the teen years with the girls but sailed through (so far) with ease. the boys were another matter lol

mind you i say this touching wood, my youngest is just getting to the teens now lol

I have one of each the girl being the eldest by 2.5yrs. As a baby, toddler and young child upto 10 she was demanding and wouldn't do anything on her own always had to have someone with her... Now aged nearly 13 she is a darling, very understanding, considerate and getting to be my best friend (hopefully I am to her as well).

The youngest boy... as a baby, toddler and child now aged 9 he is a darling, does as he is told, plays by himself, feeds himself ie helps himself if hungry/thirsty. He can be stroppy but then he has a hot head when he flips.

But all in all boys are the easier ones.

As babies and toddlers, my boy was easier

At school, girl was easier

As teenagers girl was easier, or at least no quite so difficult lol

As adults, boy is easier.

i have both ------bots everytime

My daughter was surely the most complicated little person, who was lovely until she got to 14 and then turned into Jekyll and Hyde (with my help because I would not put up with her).......now she is the best any Mum could wish for.....

My boys (her two younger brothers) were so easy after her.......perhaps they saw what a time she gave OH and me, that they felt sorry for us.....

short answer, my boys were easier.....

I dont have girls,just boy's.
I hate it when people say, how much easier it is with boy's....you dont have to worry about them so much lol.
Rubbish us mothers of boys worry just as much, afer all, a lot can happen to them too.
rant over lol.

Hi all - my first born my son was a lovely baby but at at 3 1/2 when my daughter was six months old he was diagnosed Diabetic - been insulin dependent ever since he is now 41 - but it could have been worse - at least insulin was available and he is OK and now married and with a daughter of his own. Due to these circumstances my daughter grew up very quickly and was wonderful with her brother keeping her eye on him all the time - she had to learn so much for a little one. They are still very close although my daughter lives and works 250 miles away and are a credit to me. How lucky I have been. Jx

i have 2 girls and 1 lad, and they are all teens. I would say the boy, is alot easier then the girls

boy or girl, their just people, and people have problems. I have had sleepless nights with both of them, but now they are both hard working, in partnerships, and law abiding citizens, so alls well that ends well.

My mum had 3 girls and me..

Im sure she would say i was lovely and alot quieter and easier than the girls... ;-) ahum!!

It goes without saying reading this thread, that boys are easier.
Girls always seem to be whinging and moaning, practice for when they grow up.....................pmsl

Good morning well ive got 1 boy and 3 girls and id say DEF my son he was no trouble as a baby forgot i had him sometimes, and hes not a bad teenager my girls drive me mad.

got 3 kids 2 boys and girl; boys easier, girls are little madams, i should know i was one

Ive had 1 boy then 2 girls. My son was a nightmare as a newborn, but I think thats because we never bonded (long story but hospitals fault) my daughters were good as newborns. As toddlers, my son was a joy, while the girls were more demanding and unreasonable lol.

I have one of each and defo boy, but then he turned in a troublesome nightmare, so never see him.

As they got older, my daughter realised the dangers I had pulled her away from had been for her own good. She is now a decent woman.

I have one of each and like Lin mine were both difficult for different reasons. I'd probably do it all again though!!
