[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am always put off by mothers who post a photograph of their child and write something like, “Like mother, like daughter”or “mini Me!”. Something that always brings whatever the child is doing back to themselves - as if the child exists as a reflection. Can’t the child just be or do something without it being about the mother? I have kids and while I do see resemblances, talents and likes that are like DH ormyself, I never make their lives about me. Why is our generation so self-centered? It’s like everything has to come back to us as mothers. I think it is so telling and so unhealthy to see those posts. [/quote] How is this a "this generation" thing when the expression you complained about "like mother like daughter" is as old as time? Do you have the same grip with "like father like son" or is it just women you hate?[/quote]
