Looking at the celebrity thread I was wondering if any of you followed in your parents footsteps or your children in yours?
None of mine did.

Nope. Wife's grandfather was a farmer, her dad a farmer, my wife worked for govt HR for 25 years. My Grandfather was in Military, My Father a policeman for 25 then into govt personal protection, I did Military, then....son becomes a mechanic, daughter an interior designer. Two completely opposite of us and no connection to our families past.

Even though we divorced and the children moved out of state when they were 9-7. My son has started doing what I did. He is a minister in Uganda. I stayed here and became a Buddhist monk. He plays guitar to perform also just like his Dad did. I am very happy with both my children. Tamara is an RN, with two children, living in Iowa.

My daughter did, right out of college but she is smarter than her old man and left that horrid soul killing racket fairly quickly.

Not professionally.
Two of my three kids are a lot like me in character and world view...the way they approach life and handle problems. They appreciate how they were raised. They appreciate the bad times as much as the good times.
The other is more like me in choosing jobs and striving to be an outstanding worker. That one is stubborn. For what felt like forever, that one resented the bad times so much, there was no room to appreciate the good times. And forget about learning something meaningful from of the bad times; let's just be all pissed-off about them For Freaking-Ever.
Fortunately, we're over it now.
