Having spent a great part of my journalistic career reporting on scientific studies I've learned to be skeptical of such studies. However, as a mother I do agree that raising a male child is more challenging. I don't know why - maybe it is easier for a mother to identify with a girl, as an earlier version of herself. Just a random thought. Or is it because there is only so much talking about a new video game a human being can take?!
Anyway, I feel much better knowing that having only two children puts me in the lowest risk of cardiovascular events group.

Skepticism is a basic tenant of science and it is what drives us to further research into results that are surprising/unexpected.
LOL Oh god yes. :D
That seems to be a pretty strong correlation, in this study and in others.
