What about yourself are you happy to NOT see in your kids?

Shallowly, I’m delighted DD didn’t get my thick ankles or too-close-together eyes.

As a kid I was shy and unsure of myself whereas my kids so far seem outgoing and confident so I’m very happy about that.

I was born legally blind in one eye, and have a ridiculously strong prescription (got glasses at age 2). Cause is genetic. Happy to see my kids are now 7 and 10 with totally normal vision.

Crooked, cavity-prone teeth. My choppers are straight now and look good, but man are they unhealthy.

My stubbornness! It may serve him well later on, but for now it is inconvenient to me.

Too young to know yet, but I'm really hoping my kids don't inherit my people pleaser tendencies. I know that's a learned behavior, not genetic, so I'm doing my best to model better behavior, but it's hard. Hopefully I'm doing enough!

A minor thing, but I'm glad my DD did not inherit my wide, flat feet! It's always hard finding shoes, especially ones that look cute.

OP here and yeah, that’s something I’d love my DD especially to not inherit.

Night terrors and sleep walking. I'm so glad they weren't cursed with that.

Oh so many things... but also several that I wish they did inherit. My thin lips for sure (DH has nice big lips), my very wide hips (though one of my kids might get it more or less).
