[quote]Diamonds are not rare. Companies keep them locked away and only release 1/20th of them to keep supply down. So glad my wife hates jewelry. Diamonds are a waste of money.[/quote]

re: Is it normal to have a gender reveal party for your 4th child.
Posted by EA6B on 8/20/22 at 2:10 pm
Even though the reveal thing is pretty dumb, if they are doing it why would the forth child be less significant than the first. ? Maybe they have 3 girls, and this one is a boy, or vice versa , that would be a bid deal for most families. ...
