Freakonomic India !

I am happy to share that I became the proud father of an angel
She was born on Aug 16 2008 . It was indeed a happy day for me .

She became a meaning to our lives. Kids are always there to fill your heart n it was true in my case also
But its surprising to know not many were happy when they came to know it was a baby gal and that astonished me.

People tend to bias towards baby boy though they change their stand later. why so much buzz around boy's

Any reasons...not that I can think of except for 2 mostly likely reasons

1. Gals need umpteen attention for ever till they get married
2. They are harassed at every stage


and N why baby boy...well again 2 reasons for the same

1. They are little safe in their teens compared to gals
2. will take care of the parents when they are in death bed ( sorry to be harsh here)


Isn't it funny , people percieve the kids in different forms. Isn't it bad to pre-judice them and what is more surprising is , history tells that daughters have sacrificed more and always for their parents .There are movies , stories n incidents all around us which claim the same....Though all these are mostly agreed but there is more than just these ...


So why crave for Boy...Dig into little deeper and we would know why people still vouch for baby boyz...its not b'coz of the 2 reasons I told you earlier ...its only one and that truth is " Bein parents of a boy has less responsibility towards him (after he gets married) and his immediate family tree :) " . They are just too selfish to accept that !!!!

Lets be frank , we all dnt like more responsibility and commitments...Yes generations have changed and people dnt anymore distinguish boy or a gal . Economic gap between them has decreased and gals fair well or better than boyz everywhere and every body are aware of it.....

but then its a irony in our society , people tend to mean differently than what they talk ......

Kids are god and they are only how their parents perceive them... lets stop bein biased ....

India in 21st Century is still the same !!!!!

hmm.. interesting and straight forward.. All I want to say is Neither is inferior nor superior. But ppl will have preferences due to different reasons ( not the serios ones you mentioned), atleast in educated minds..

It’s a cliche when I read this book and reflect some of my own beliefs about having a purpose-driven life. This book amazed me for 2 reaso...
