Whatever happened to "I don't care if it's a boy or a girl, I only hope my baby is healthy?" Well, that's what we USED to say... way back when. Gender reveal extravaganzas are nothing but a way for bored wealthy people to show off their wealth and brag that they are reproducing and providing an heir to inherit that wealth and privilege. And now, guess what? You get to take down millions of trees, animals, homes and even people (including possibly killing some fire fighters!) while you're at it. WHOO HOO!!! Will this event ever be recounted to this child eventually, or buried under the rug as something best not said?

I'm betting on "under the rug." It's how people act after committing atrocious deeds, historically.
