Kids As Mimics

Post by koan »

I've noticed lately that my daughter holds quite a few opinions just because she knows what I believe in. She tells people to vote for the party that I support, is just finally separating from my religious beliefs after I've told her that she must find her own answers, and tries to read the same books I read... unless it's completely dry non fiction.

She's twelve now so she's starting to get more independent. It will be interesting if she rebels now and tries to tell me that I forced all these ideas on her.

You could terrify her by picking up all her opinions instead for a day just to show her how creepy she'd find it.

Or you could watch the news together and take turns saying "that's good" - "no it isn't!" about each item, or is that too much like being here?

Interesting idea.

I mimic well. I think I managed a pretty good spot imitation while I was there, yes? :D

I still grind my teeth whenever I recall it.

My kids are 19,33,36,37 and they still mimic me. They do have minds of their own but they vote for the party I vote for and my eldest wants to foster just because I do but I have told her its a very hard thing to do and she has 4 children and 2 are Autistic. It was intersting watching the girls when they were little wanting to dress like me....but that has certainly changed :D

The scary part is when they says things that make more sense then what we say:wah:
Who are they to protest me? Who are they? Unless they've been me and been there and know what the hell they're yelling about!
