[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wait, so you’ve never noticed or commented on the fact that your child resembles or has a similar personality trait as you or your DH? Ever? That seems stranger to me. [/quote] +1 I mean, if someone is constantly making those comments, and seems really invested in their kid being like them, or sees them only as an extension of themselves, that's one thing, but it is totally natural for people to notice and comment on how their kids are similar to them, how traits seem to have been passed down, etc. It's a way of feeling connected. And sometimes kids get a kick out of looking like/dressing like their parents, or imitating what they do--that's also normal and natural. [/quote]
