Hello friend!!

Children are gifts..and as such should be treated with grace irrespective of the gender given to you by God.

Boy or girl child, which do you think is more expensive to train? Give your reasons

Presently with the high cost of living, in my opinion I would say girl child is more expensive to train. Training is a process no doubt, and in that process money is spent. Training a girl child is not only expensive but tasking.

Right from when the girl child is born, she needs this special attention and treatment because she is a sensitive being. Her clothes in the market is very expensive.

The girl child pays attention to her looks more than the boy child. Therefore, you will spend money on changing her styles, buying makeups, buying cosmetics, buying clothes and footwear, you would even spend money on buying sanitaries pads every month

Thinking about girls been more expensive to train than boys, my elder sister crossed my mind. She has 4 daughters and 2 sons! Large family right? But guess what? Even at the age we're the children are, she spends more on her daughters than her sons not because she doesn't love her sons but because it's a necessity.

If you were to be a parent today, which gender do you prefer to have as your children? Give us your reasons

If I was to be a parent today, I would love to have a mixed gender in my home. Girls and boys. This makes the home more balanced because the ladies needs the protection of their brothers likewise the brothers needs the care of their sisters.

I also want to experience the feeling of having the two genders in my home. That is a girl and a boy. I want the boy to have his sister and the girl to have his brother. Life is more beautiful with balance.

During adolescence, which gender shows tendencies to go out of control? Why

This is a very interesting question and complicated too. According to some statistics, children during adolescent tend to show actions of stubbornness.

In my opinion, it all depends on the type of training given to that child. But if am to pick I think girls tend to go out of control during adolescent than guys. Girl child like to explore during adolescent, when they feel that you are restricting them from exploring, they may get out of control.

I am a lady and I remember when I was growing up as a teenager. I had a female class mate that kept having issues with her parents. At one point she ran out of the house for months with no trace of where she went.

Her parents came to my house to search for her, asking me questions if I knew her whereabout. I was shocked that she could leave home without a trace. I could see disappointment on the faces of my parents as they looked at her parents.

So you see it all depends on the kind of upbringing you give to your kids. Kids are not meant to go out of control when they practically experience love.

What do you think about the statement; "what a boy can do, a girl can do better"?

Hahaha! First the statement makes me laugh! Many years ago I remember boasting to my brother's using this statement. Sometimes, I wonder who coined out that statement.

I think that is a statement of debate till tomorrow. The statement for me is not really true most cases. In terms of physical strength, that statement doesn't apply at all because boys are physically built to be physically stronger than girls.

There areas that statement can apply like in times of affection, care and love . The statement can apply in politics, education, entertainment and other areas.

That statement above has caused many troubles than you can ever imagine. Most people just try to avoid that statement.

I would like to invite my friends to join this contest. @lhorgic @jovita30 @ninapenda
