Have you turned out like your parents??

oh please say it isnt so. lol you know the more i think about it the more i see it, in my younger days i would say i am not gona be like that when i get older. my mom had a back injury so she was a kitchen sitter ,with coffeecup in hand all day well i am now disabled sitting at the computer with coffeecup in hand and i find my self saying things she said and wanting things the way she liked them wow how we change when we get older,but i must say it is not a bad thing to be like my mamma god rest her.

I think so times yes. I do catch myself saying things my parents said to me. But I don't think I am exactly like them. I read books and books and more books on parenting. I learned a lot. i learned that some of the things my parents did was not the right way to raise a child. Although for the most part I was raised OK.

Ohh i sure in hell hope not!! lol!! I had real crappy parenting growing up,,they were very abusive mentally,physically and verbally..and they were never there for me..well I am breaking the cycle..i dont hit my child..nor will i ever say things was told to myself..there were a few good traits i was taught and being independent and repsctful and well mannered,,and i am passing those on as well..

Somewhat, I think I have. I can see certain ways that I have, but in other ways no. It is a good thing. I can say they were always fair but a little too strict.

No. Not in any way. I was not raised by my parents beyond 5 years of age so I have not learned to be like them and my genes also seems to have skipped them.
