I think it depends on the age. My 5 yr old boy is wilder and crazier than any other kid I've ever met. he can run around, digging, climbing, yelling, destroying.... from son up to sun down. He's happy and behaves well enough but he requires soooooo much energy. I hope the next one is a girl so I have a have a little more peace.

I think it depends on the child... 2 of my sons were easy to raise, while the third is an ongoing special case.. and my daughter bounces up and down! LOL

I personally think that boys are much harder to raise than girls. Idk, ifs it's just because of the times. But my teenage boys seem to think that they're full grown men and can do whatever they want. My daughter is alot easier to raise, not sure if that because of how well we get along. Plus we pay attention to our moods with each other, when we are both being hormonal we give each other space. I love my sons to death, but they are a lot more work than my daughter is.

God gave me a boy for a reason!! Both my sisters have mello-dramatic girls & it just makes me thank the Lord for giving me my sweet, easy-going boy!!

I think that girls are harder to raise because they tend to get the snotty teenage syndrome and of course the ability to get pregnant at a young age. Girls are also a lot more dramatic, so if you don't like drama queens then girls aren't for you.

My girl is harder to raise then my boys idk if its because she is the only girl or she is just spoiled rotten because she is the only girl.

I have a teen girl and a teen boy and I can tell you that in my case boys are much easier. They have a lot less hormonal issues to deal with. My son is also much more disciplined that my daughter.

Hmm, I don't think that it's about boys versus girls. My son and youngest daughter have always been a breeze while my middle daughter is a bit higher need.

I think boys are harder earlier on in life, where as girls are more difficult in their teens.
