Pat, I think my girls have been pretty easy to raise..and with boys, when they get married they have to choose wife over mom even when they don't want to...lol or their life is hell

Damn, you have a point there dear. Now that I'm thinkin on it. I've always liked Zac's girlfriends. Maybe it was like 'good, someone else to take care of him' but I don't like Marty's little girfriend. I'm afraid she'll break his little heart....good point sis

I only have one girl and she's already a hand and mind full:) 4 of either, I can't imagine:)

Sarah said...

I have one of each: Kate is 17; Jeff is 12. Kate was an easier baby and little girl, but the pre-adolescent years were a B****! She is becoming human again, but very opinionated. Jeff was tougher as an infant and little boy. He wanted to climb and explore EVERYTHING...plus we discovered that he has ADHD. He is a very sweet pre-teen and respectful of authority--but I know there's lots more angst to come.

I have one daughter age 17. She (Sarah)is completing her first year of college. Teresa (my wife) and I will be visiting Sarah in N.C. next week. Love her to death! But sadly, the only time I hear from her is when she needs extra money or is having a real bad day with a/her 'boy friend(s)'.

I'll tell you who had it the worst, our Mom and Dad. LOL

Sarah, I worked at Evangelical Christian Academy. There were a lot of AHAD students...I feel for you but, things get better:)Ric, at least she's in contact whether for better or worse...they're our kids.RAC, you got it right on the head this time...our parents were tormented, hence Karma:)What goes around, you know the rest I'm sure:)

Daughters you can look at funny and they'll start tearing up...boys if they're anything like we were you need to take a 2 x 4 to them to get their attention.
Boys are probably easier.

I have 2 girls, 17 & 16. One is a girly girl and the other is a tom boy. As far as raising them goes, as Sarah said, boy's are more rambunctious as yourngsters, but when girls hit pubetey, WOW!!! I to know that, as it was said, it is ease for the father than the mother. I know when Jill is fuedin with one of the girls over some emotional thing, I simpley walk in and in a low voice say something, the girl starts crying, and I am the bad guy to mamma. Oh well, in a house of girls, I cant win.
Another tough part of girls over boys is the dating game. I still use thing such as the oyster, guns, and other things that scare the boys who want to see my girls. I accually got bumper to bumper wiht one of the boys and pushed him back in a parking lot.

OK, I need to elaborate. My daughter and I have a very good and strong 'father and daughter' relationship. We use to talk weekly on the phone from the time she could speak until she started college. And I would visit her as often as I could! But then things suddenly changed once she started school. She found new interest...men (college boys), then our weekly communications faded into monthly ones. Then money began becoming somthing important, then the phone calls started coming in! But I don't mind. Love to hear from her and can't wait to see her this week!
