Thanks mickyc. Have you had only one boy/girl? I just worry about the potential that there will be a child that has no peers of the same gender at some point and the impacts of that, As well, I am weary of too many girls (prefer some boys to help keep the group a bit less 'catty' later on)!!

I do agree it depends on the children not just the gender...my daughter is by no means a frilly princess kind of girl!
