Some people like me are really curious, and yes waiting for 9 months is a long time 😳 I had my first pregnancy in India and they never told me the sex of my child. I begged and pleaded but they would not even show me the ultrasound my head was near the screen so I could not even turn 😕 My second pregnancy was in U.A.E and my gynae told me only when I was 6 months pregnant. I wanted a girl really bad so I told her that, and she was smiling and then Hurray!!! we were so happy. 😳

Some people misuse this facilities thats the probs.... 😳

So bann these kind of facilities for GOOD.....😊

TallyHo...I too read this article in Gulf News it really made me sad 😕and the part in red... I got to know the sex of my second child (girl) when I was 6 months pregnant we were thrilled. 😳

I can totally relate to that !!😊

I agree Connie...sometimes 9 months is too long a period to keep guessing...

for both my babies when I bought clothes I stuck to neutral colours like purples and greens and yellows...had I known they were both girls I would have splurged on pink...siiiigh!😊

"sometimes 9 months is too long a period to keep guessing..." 😳

These Gussing make problems in different places.....Ek bacha hone ke liye people r waiting years n years....why people cant wait 9 months!!!!! 😕

Well those are people who live on hope....like my mom it took her 8 yrs to conceive. She too was desperate to find out if it is was boy or girl, but in those days they had the old wives tales... 😆 😆 It did not matter to her cos all she wanted was a baby 😳

to each his own, believe...I am just writing my thoughts...but pls note I never said legalise gender determination!...

point is that even despite bans ppl who want to find out and abort will do it anyway...and ppl like us...who wouldnt dream of such a thing are the only ones follwing the law!

I just wonder whether a day will ever come in India when people who say " congratulations it's a girl" will really mean it!

• Do you think its still lip service in terms of rights of a girl child or have we made some progress?
• Does education broaden our horizons enough to really not discrimate on basis of gender?

Sorry for the long post...I got carried away!😛

I will answer in general!

it depends on individuals, not all Indians, and in my case all Pakistanis would crave for a boy. I know many in my friend and relative circle who wished for daughters and they were super excited when their wishes come true. my parents are one of them. my mom, who normally doesnt tell me in words how much she cares about me, said in discussion that she actually prayed for a daughter, and so did my father. and they always wanted more daughters then sons. (but they got only one daughter and two sons, but they are already looking forward for the two bahus hehe)

its not about education, as education serve nothing when it comes to issues like these. it is about open mindness or not, and from my experience, education doesn't promote open mindness, it can give you awareness but wont change your views 100%. it is normally how you view it. My best friend is always have a disadvantage coz she is a girl, if you say education can improve things, then both her parents are CAs, and have traveled around the world and worked with many big companies and what not. but their mentality that boy has all the freedom, coz one day he will be the bread maker is still there. and as for my friend, first she was given a goal to do CA, and now that she is working on it, she is been forced to get married, coz she is a girl, and girls are supposed to get married early.

gender discrimination might not end fully, coz this is not only in South Asia, but in western society too. where women are given lessor salary then men for the same amount of work and position.

its an on going fight.............

I totally understand what u mean...cos many couples use this for the wrong purpose. For some of us it does not make a difference, a healthy baby is all that matters but those who only want boys and will go to any extent and even sometimes risk their own lives. 😡

Seems this topic became a FAMILY topic 😛.Hoped to see the posts of the level Mythir,Provoked ,Parzania 😛 with lots of multiplex views ...but this post took the turn towards Karan Johars 😛
