[quote=Anonymous]OP, I lived this. Literally every time my in-laws saw my kids, from birth, they would pick apart the kids' features and attribute them to someone in DH's family. Blue eyes? From DH's great-grandmother, despite the fact my mom and some siblings are blond and blue-eyes. The shape of their ears? Those are like DH's brother. As kids got older, they started attributing their character traits and athleticism to DH's family. Intelligence? Definitely like DH, despite the fact that we went to the same grad school and I did better academically! Good at swimming? Just like DH's brother - who is so unathletic it's funny, meanwhile I grew up doing swim team and swam year-round. Other PPs can call you sensitive, but I totally get it. It's beyond annoying that they they have some cellular-level need to have your kids be a reflection of them.[/quote]
