to start it this topic i would like to let everyone knows about me and my family.
my wife is a working women. i look after my children. Oh we have 2 daughter. i look after them. who ever from my family, friends n relative keep on insisting us that we should go for a third child because everyone wants a son in our family.
do we really need a son to continue my family chain...

Do you have enough to support three? Do you have the time to love them all equally? Will all three be given much needed attention when they want it?

its not about loving them equally or giving more attention. i just dont want this custom that only sons will look after their parent when they are old. even a daughter can do everything a son can do

@premkuamar35 Nobody could guess if you're going to have a son or a daughter next. I think it's stupid to only think of giving a son as an offspring without considering if you could give attention to all of them financially, emotionally and mentally.

Son or daughter make no different in this world now. Many daughters often care for their elders while son are too busy and forget the elders.
A traditional belief to make the chain longer, if you can there is no harm then, Fufil the policy 100%

i also agree with you. and have seen many around us that even a daughter can take care of their parents at their old age.

The number of children you have, regardless of gender, is between you, your spouse and God! Everybody else is just providing you with their "wish list".

It's up to you and your wife to decide wether you want to go on with a third child in you family. Nobody can tell you what you should do. If someone else want a new baby in the family because they want a boy, so those persons who want it should have the baby instead of telling to you. It's very nice to see babys, but other members of your family won't have to charge with it.

If your third child happens to be a daughter, would you still go for a fourth child?... I think you should be thinking if you can still afford a third child.

Today ,there is no difference b/w sons and daughter..there are many girls who take care of theur more than sons...but if u really want to continue the family chain ..u can go for it ...but it should be the decision of u and your wife only...if u really want it and also if the health of your wife permits it ...but don't chose it just for the sake of relatives..
