That's neat though! It made me smile to think of it... in some ways, it's kind of neat to think about taking after our parents, isn't it? It's something we'll always have (and if we don't want it, at least there's the benefit of having shared it with someone special)

In most ways I take after my mother. I look like her and I'm starting to notice now that I'm becomming her! You know all those things that your mother used to do when you were younger and you would say- "I'm not going to do that when I grow up" or "I'm not going to care if my room is dirty!" remember? lol, I notice that I'm now doing things like her and I do care if my room is dirty!

I act a lot like my mom. sometimes, i act like my step-dad but I try not to. He was pretty mean when I was little.

I act like my father and favor him more too... but when I was younger, I looked more like my mother.

they say that girls ct more like thier father and boys more like thier mother. I have to agree because I am more like my dad. I am impatient, and dont like to deal with too many people. But I am like my mom in the fact that I care about othrers more so than myself

I look like my mother, but I act like my father. My dad was so fun, he was always pulling pranks on everybody and was usually the life of the party.

Well, physically, I look more like my dad. Especially now that I wear glasses. We have the same black hair and hazel eyes.
therwise, Ia m a strange mix. I say strange b/c my parents are such opposites (no longer together). I have my dad's sarcasm, wit, intelligence, slight cynicism, poetic tendencies, ADHD, tendency toward addiction (computer mostly), need to read... I have my mom's faith (I hope) her issues with money and self-esteem, her compassion and love for people.

eventhough my characters are more towards my dad, but i will first look into my mum's welfare first. she had sacrrificed alot for me physically, emotionally and mentally. she deserved my top priority. i love both of them definitely but having characters like my dad, i know he is able to cope with life but once awhile i have to check on him too as he is not the type who will open his mouth to tell others he is in problem.

I've been told I look like my mom, and I think I have a little bit of both when it comes to which one I act like......I'm stubborn like my dad, and irritable sometimes like my mom...

If I am standing next to my father, I look like him. If I am standing next to my mother, I look like her. If I am in the middle of both of them, I definately look like I am the offspring of both. Its really kind of freaky. I am adopted and did not meet them till much later in life. It was great to finally be with someone I looked like.
