4 DS's V 4 DD's

[turnitup]

Not really sure what the point of this programme is but am gonna watch

Both families have lovely houses and chickens!

The DD's Dad didn't seem too into the girlie makeover

Finding this really annoying - is it just families with one gender dc that are so fully of all the same old stereotypes?

How many 'girl-thing' 'boy-thing's can you fit into 15 minutes.

Can't find anything else to watch either!

lol, he did seem to be enjoying his makeover

both familes seem quite well orf lol

Ive got ghost whisperer on and shall be watching it in an hour.
I'll check in to see if its worth it

The girls' mum's going to be the villain of the piece, I think.

I have 4dd's and sil has 4 ds's we could have been famous!!

The boys coming in and shoe flinging, thats so my boys, lol

Hmm, the same sex parents of the children seem thrilled to have 4 of their sex dont they, iykwim. That poor dad!

DD is a serious girlie girl, so am on pins to find out what Ive got in store for me, did you see the amount of shoes the girls had.

Tis very stereotypical loler...

Massive stereotyping so far! Love the chickens though. More of the chickens!

Massive stereotyping, that's true, but so very much like my RL with 4 boys !!

They are still little, but I forsee a life with hundreds of stinky trainers for me rather soon...

Stereotypes exist for a reason

"boys mums do too much for them" - no love you do!!!!

Must tell dd to stop doing less play fighting and more make-up in the morning, must tell ds1 to stay out of the kitchen and tell ds2 to stop talking to me and to start grunting!

All 3 dc do shoe throwing - nongender specific activity in chez loler.

I can relate to the boys mum, although only have 3 DS's.

I feel so sad that i'll never have a DD but at the same time so happy and grateful for the boys I have.

Does anyone want to swap with my Aunt? She has 8 boys.

To be honest this is nature vs nurture, my DD is very much the tomboy and would hate to e bought up in a house with all that girly stuff, and yes agree with the sterotyping. Boys mum though does wish she could have a girl I think.

All the girls in my family and all the boys fall into these stereotypes too.

PacificDogwood about the trainers . Am already getting nervous about teenage girls, I was a horror!

All the kids have such lovely names on this prog too. Am wondering how much these parents earn.

hmmm....I think I am being manipulated to feel sorry for the mum of boys (because she doesn't have a daughter)

Hm, nature vs nurture... I was always glad that DS1 and DS2 were both boys as their personalities are SO different that I am certain if they had been a boy and a girl everybody would have assumed No2 is calmer/more sociable because they were female. The way it is, it is just him .

Think we're also being manipulated to feel sorry for the girls dad too.

... and to feel sorry for the boys' mum.

Wonder whether I am going to feel hard done by in years to come? Cannot imagine that I will, but who knows?

OK I want to scream now, DH wouldn't dream of not doing any of the cutting trees, making catapults with DD just because she is a girl.

oh that dad of boys is starting to seem like a bit of a nob.

I am a girl (well, an elderly one) and I have never had a dance lesson in my life. And never wanted one, either

And, as if the girls' mother stands and watches all their dance lessons.

I know! I had dance lessons growing up and I used to get dropped off and picked up! Never once did my mum stand and watch. I would have been mortified!
