Getting tired of negativity?

Is anyone else getting a lot of negativity from others? I’m getting really tired of people making negative comments, often dressed up as ‘jokes’. For example, if sitting near a crying child saying comments like, “this is what you’ve got to look forward to for the next 10 years”, or when finding out that we’re having a boy saying “oh, girls are so much easier than boys”, etc. I just don’t see how these comments are in any way helpful. We had no control over having a boy over a girl for example and it makes me sad that people are already judging him based on his sex alone.
