It Seems American women think baby girls are priceless and will go to extremes to have girl babies while the other half of the world thinks they are worthless. Couldn't me just swap babies?

A Male Math Teacher in India is Standing up for Baby Girls!

Sunil Jaglan's village lies in the heart of Haryana's Jind district - an area notorious for honour killings and it's low sex ratio. He says he realised just how bad things were for women when his own daughter Nandini was born 6 months ago.
