Is it bad to control the gender ?

Me and my husband has been married for 5 years and have one beautiful boy . As much as we love him everyone wanted a girl . I pretty much had a small depression because of gender disappointment and it took me awhile to love him fully after he was born.
Reasons being? Let’s face it girls are better to their parents they can get away with quite a few things in life as long as they look decent and they tend to be more compassionate, less annoying and quieter .
Now we have been contemplating to have no.2 but we are very afraid that it will be a boy again. Is it bad that we want to abort if the gender isn’t what we wanted ?
Here are what netizens think:
- You think you can get pregnant whenever you want? Some people can be young and yet struggle with infertility even though they had the first child successfully. Let alone abort and try again. After abortion, that could also be the last time you get pregnant or deliver a healthy baby, then how? Spend more on fertility treatments? Try living out your thoughts and you will realise it’s not practical at all. Every baby is a gift. And its foolish to stereotype a child’s temperament based on gender.
- Y’all having a kid or buying a pet dog? Your considerations and choices are appalling if that’s your attitude towards being parents
- This is a living thing you are talking about. You’ll love them nonetheless. Boy or girl doesnt matter as long you love and teach them how to be a better person. Don’t like this kind of mentality
- OMG how can that even be for parents. Supposed to love your flesh and blood regardless of gender unconditionally. Better not have another kid if that is the type of thoughts you have.
