Woman Reveals The Baby's Gender To Husband’s Family, They Get Upset And Throw A Party For Their “Imaginary Grandson”

A study published in Social Psychological and Personality Science found that unborn children are perceived as more healthy when they are expected to be boys than girls, even when the parents have no preconceived notions about the sex of their baby. The report also found that parents are less likely to bond with their unborn baby (regardless of the sex) if they learn late into the pregnancy. And even though women have made incredible progress in virtually every area of life over the past couple of generations, they still face more pressure than men do to have kids. And new parents experience so much stress that the baby’s sex doesn’t always matter — if the kids were healthy, that is. But a soon-to-be mom recently experienced extreme disappointment after finding out that she’s having a girl rather than a boy, and her in-laws haven’t made any efforts for baby girl to feel welcome. So she walked out of the shower they threw for her imaginary son. Below, you’ll find the full story as well as some of the responses to it. Let us know what you think about the situation in the comments.
