I think its equally the same-All depending on how you do it. If you're a good budgeter/ bargain shopper etc. you can make it even. I have one of each, and I try and make it extremely equal to avoid their jealousy. In my opinion I think that boys are easier to raise however.

It requires more money to raise the girl child than the boys. But the girl child when grown up will have more affection and love towards the parents than the boy child.

In Indian experience, Yes. The girl convinces her husband to take in her parents to look after them in evening hours of their life. I have 3 solid examples of my grand parents family (cousins). Earlier people who were carving for male child, now prefer female child. Do you know in education, throughout girls fare better than boys in Karntaka, India.
Generally women folk have greater kindness, tenderness, feeling compared to men folk.

Yeah we can't wait to have a girl, but my mother in law said she will have to go back to work from retirement to afford all of the stuff she will want to bye

I would say boys they don't need the makeup and all that girly stuff. And they don't care if they don't have 20 pairs of jeans in the closet. Girls just seem to want more.

I know this is a little off the subject,
but my sister just got paid for the first time from mylot.
Incase anyone wanted to know if you really get paid.
I haven't gotten paid yet so I was still skeptical,
but she showed me the statment.
I was surprised.

I have 3 daughters, and therefore do not know the answer to that question.
I am lucky in that I could pass them all hand-me-downs, and did not have to worry about it.
