I will start us off -

BAD POINTS - They always want to dress themselves in outfit of there (unusal) choice,
E.g - including red top, pink bottoms that they wore yesterday!, and wellies

BOYS

GOOD POINTS - They love there cuddles with mum

BAD POINTS - You have to really sort them out and do more for them

I've not had either so have no idea but based on my own siblings (2 boys, 2 girls) I'd say:

Girls
Good - they have more time for their parents as they grow up and have more time for their opinion
- they enjoy doing all the girly things with mum like baking, shopping etc....

Boys
Good - they like to do more active outdoors activities and make good playmates for daddies
- they are more independent in their play

I've only got Lacey so it's hard to say with boys so here goes...


GIRLS

GOOD POINTS - I can dress her up in cute dresses and have her bedroom pink!

BAD POINTS - She's a proper tom boy! Prob because she's had enough of dresses and pink lol

BOYS

GOOD POINTS - I've heard their little mummy boys!

BAD POINTS - Can't find many cute outfits! It's all trousers and shorts, i want DRESSES! lol

I have one of each sooo

Girls..

Good points - they like to sit and draw an watch tv an genrally relaxed and girly outfits and longer hair and someone to grow up with have shopping sprees with ect and she is realy good most of the time I will say do you want to go naughty corner and she will say no mummy and do what I have asked straight away and also the times where her bad points come up are few and far between

Bad point - ignorant - she will totally block me out if she doesn't want to know what I'm saying lol she is also a little bit of a cry baby lol but she is a girl - oh and if she isn't ment to be doing something or spent too long doing something ie - washing her hands for an hour or getting ten wipes out the pack to clear the living room flor I will have to tell her no untill she gets do you want to go in the naughty corner? Instead of just listening to start with haha!

Boys

Good points - they love their hugs and kisses allot! They had alloy of energy and I have found are really good eaters. They always get really excited about everything like do you want an orange and it's yeeeer!! Where as my daughter would b like no chocolate! Haha but my son is extereamly happy with just what he is given

Bad points - the energy is constant! There is no colouring tv time or quite book Reading done fir half an hour it's like 5 mins I got paint on my hands i'm happy now time to run around laughing at mummy as I see how far I can spread it aroud the room with her chasing me they get very jelous - my mummy! My daddy! Even if I am giving bella a hug - if I day naughty corner he laughs and runs off and does something extra naughty lol!

And although they both have bad points I wouldn't change them for the world live them so much! X

I've only got a girl so I'm keeping an eye on the boys lists but I'll do the girls one:

Good points:
She loves cuddling with mummy, she is really maternal loving and caring, she loves Reading and writing and drawing and being creative, she has amazing taste in clothes, she's so well behaved, she listens when we tell her things

Bad points:
She's stubborn, she steals my make up/perfume/shoes/bags etc, I'm terrified about the future ie her getting pg at a young age etc (not her bad point but it's a general bad point!)

 

[Yodabo]

Well, i've only had boys so heres my take on them lol

Good Points - Very affectionate, Thoughtfull, independant (give them a console and they're quiet for hours lol) protective. Don't have to spend loads on them to keep them happy

Bad Points - Hyper, always up to mischief, can never keep clean, never want to go to the shops (!) and when they get to their teens - moody, always eating, messy, and don't look after themselves!

 

[JJ Mum]

Ha girls some great funnys here - keep posting them

GIRLS

GOOD POINTS - They like making things and will happily sit over something like a craft or painting for hours or till the paper is all used up or your sick of changing the black painting water!

BAD POINTS - Clever and sneeky (will steal crisps in the night), will blame her brothers, about 6 steps ahead of the boys in scheming, (I think it's inbuilt in girls).

BOYS

GOOD POINTS - can entertain themselves with nothing - eg a stick , or something they have found, but trouble it will always turn into a whack em and see type game, roughty toughty!

BAD POINTS - Into boring things like warhammer figures , army games and airfix models!
Couldn't put washing into a washing basket as they take their clothes off for the day, even if you put the basket on their pillow!

BOYS

GOOD POINTS- very much a mummys boy, can entertain himself for ages with simple things. He eats whatever you put in front on him,loves his sleep! You can find some very smart boys clothes, not often mind!

BAD POINTS- He likes to get messy. If theres a puddle..he will splash!! He wont let me wash his hair! Theres also not an amazin range of boys clothes out there!

 

[Terrie]

I have one of each so can comment here lol

BOYS:

GOOD: wants lots of mummy cuddles, generally more laid back, good eater, quite silly (can have a laugh)
BAD: quite clingy and very wingy when hes tired

GIRLS:

GOOD: quite independant, likes to dress herself & make herself look pretty. she likes new clothes lol!
BAD: she can throw tantrums at the drop of a hat over anything, wants her own way, is a fussy eater.

Overall if i had the choice id have another boy any day
