Would prefer a male or female babysitter to watch over your children?
and would it make a difference what the sex of your child is when deciding? (if both are equally capable) Also if you have a babysitter already- Male or female? Don't get all stupid, I'm just curious as to how people think and if sexist notions are ok when it comes to protecting the most important people in their lives. Their babies. Basically, would you trust a man or a woman more to watch your little girl or boy?
As a gay man, if you were to have a child, would you prefer to have a son or daughter and why?
I am gay, have two children, a boy and a girl. When they were young I lived with my male partner during weekends and with the children and their mother during the week, because I had found a job in their home town. We had family holidays each year in summer and with Xmas.The children always knew I was their father and gay and sometimes one or both stayed the weekend with me and my partner.When she was six or seven however, my daughter, told me that she didn't like to come stay alone with us anymore. I asked why, and she told me that our house was a 'boys' house', meaning that most of the toys were boy's toys, from my own youth and that we had no girl's things. The contrast must have been especially noticeable, because the household that she grew up in consisted of two women, each with two children. It definitely was a 'girls' house'.Even though we tried to rectify things, it still remained predominantly a boy's house to her mind, especially in comparison with her own house.A long story to illustrate that just as boys growing up in an predominantly female atmosphere (as most single parent families are) may lack male influences, a girl growing up in a predominantly male household, may miss certain female influences.I'd be the last person to say that a single mother cannot successfully rear boys. But it would be advisable to make up for the lack of a male parent and a male's perspective. In the same way two men bringing up a girl should make up for the lack of a female parent.
Why do some parents prefer male child?
People have preferences based on various factors we can't certainly talk about, for it varies from person to person. What I believe is, it is only a tradition that has been carried forward. During our forefathers time, it wasn't very easy for a woman to look after her parents after her marriage. But now such a thing is easily possible and hence this belief is shedding gradually, though not quickly.
Why would God make all females the child bearers, but Himself the bearer of all life male?
Now let's get the technicalities out of the way, I realize that not all animals that reproduce have gender, and some living things reproduce asexually. I also realize that God would not be male or female if He existed, but in the Bible, and I assume the Koran, He represents Himself as a male. So why would God make it so all life is created by females, but not stick with that pattern when revealing Himself? Seems weird to have the gender that gives all life to be female, and then have the ultimate creator a male. Why do you think this is the case?
Why people prefer male child? It is not only in India but in several part of the world?
Firstly there is some science and some cheap thoughts both. Secondly, yes there is difference in a boy and a girl, and i soul simply for fun does not get manifested as one of these. There need to be a reason and there need to be a difference. Now coming at the disrespect and bad treatment, its a shame on mankind. But we are imperfect by our very nature, if we increase human values all other values of all other system automatically increases. remember ignorance can be fought only with the weapon of truth and knowledge of this truth. a female soul, being manifested is of more kala's than a male soul, because of its service attitude. it is more ready to be an enjoyed than a male manifestation. and being more near to reality hatred in this unreal world is more. when something is more true, all those things which are less true, until they reach that level of true nature, they will hate this truth for sure. on earth it may be as female being dominated by male, and in other planets in other ways. also with more cleanliness comes the heavy load of getting unclean, it is more easy for kaam beeja to execute in females, though males seem to wander around for sex always. so it is a very complex topic, we cannot discuss in this small scope, but Dis respecting etc is an act of ignorance, females are gifted with special potential of housing soul, till sharira is ready for delivery in this world, they as part of prakriti , serve purusha by housing him in the macro scale, again as I told they are more ready for service and acceptance. So they should be treated with love and respect, as divine manifestations of prakriti and not as a toy of sex , as they are depicted today in media etc. they should be respected for there capability and gift of being a mother. They should be welcome in the family. with great respect , love and gratitude for the lord. and as far as those things of hell, when son performs last right what happens, may be more good krama is generated is got when a father performs marriage of his daughter ans settles her life. It is said that getting ones daughter married and allowing her to become a mother, in accordance with Dharma, is a great punya. Lord Bless, -- Deito Harirnama Harirnama Harirnama kevalam.
If you’re a single dad, is it better to date a woman with children or without?
I would say take it person by person. It can get more complicated with a woman with her own children, but she may perfectly understand your own concerns and work well with you to make sure to treat your kids fairly. After all, she should want the same for her kids. Same for childless singles. Mine and hers maybe a problem eventually, and even more complicated because her kids will be your kids, too. So, it’s going to come down to the kind of person you are looking for, and not the kid or no kid issue. Obviously, you want to find a kind, compassionate person that is not prone to petty jealousy, likes kids, and has a sense of fairness. My mom always told me that if someone really loves you, they love who you love, too. Think there is quite a bit of truth in that.
Women who have multiple children by different fathers?
I can't help looking down on women who have several children by different fathers, and often have never been married. It just seems sad and living proof of a person with very poor judgment, and children who are left as victims who may very well think that there is no point to having a devoted partner/husband/whatever. I've mentioned this to people before, but was wondering if people out there on the web might feel the same? It really troubles me. Do you worry about the example you are setting (especially for those with daughters)? Do you worry that you are minimizing the role of having the father of your children living in the same home with them? Also, in my experience, the fathers of these children are often spoken ill of. Do you worry that your children will see all men as incapable of being a lifelong partner
