[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sometimes I weirdly worry about the gene-pool from my DH's side of the family. They tend to drink a lot and are very dysfunctional with some diagnosed mental issues. Its all a hot toxic mess.

I worry procreating with him would mean risking my children inheriting genetic factors.

Is this a thing?

Does anyone worry about physical traits being passed down to your kids from your DH's side? This is gonna sound so shi**y but I used to worry about that a lot. My DH's family is kind of unattractive. His mother doesn't have a pretty face. I'll just leave it at that. His dad is a big burly man. His brothers are... strange looking. One has a Peter Griffin chin. The other is... well, not attractive. At all.[/quote]

My DH's side of the family is attractive.  Mine less so.  The thing is, it's fixable if it bothers you -- if DD gets my profile, she can love it or she can get a nose job.  She's got my big eyebrows but those can be shaped.  Illness isn't like that.[/quote]
