How much are your children like you?

Myself ... I don't see myself as much like either parent. I see them in my brothers and sisters, a little bit here and a little bit there. But in the end, I'm sure I have many traits of both that I just don't see. I was never really that close to either, being the oldest, I rebelled against everything - LOL - but never went too far to the dark side.

My two adult daughters. One is a lot like me, the other a lot like her mother. Both have elements of both that are obvious. Hey, they turned out okay, so I can't complain. But otherwise a hard question to answer. But a good question to think on.

I don't have any kids yet, but I see a lot of my father in myself. We had our early rebel days, but now I have things to do. I have a house to maintain and people that rely on me. I listen and take in as much info as I can before making decisions, even stubborn sometimes about not doing something until I know more info and really feel good about, but sometimes when people push me too much, that hidden fire comes out.

My kids are pretty young still, but they both have my stubbornness. My mom thinks its so funny that I'm getting a taste of my own medicine.

You sound like you raised a good one. There's definitely opposition as they grow. My grand parents smoked indoors like chimneys and my mother and her 3 siblings hate cigarette and avoid it like the plague... sometimes being the bad one is a good thing. I smoke. so go figure...
