I may have passed on the genes, but I think I make few of the same parenting choices of either parent. (except high expectations, I guess) I parent by sitcom, and by parenting books.
I always try to remind myself of all the wonderful things I passed on to my son as well as the troublesome things, and that they are two sides to the same coin.
And I also try to remember that I'm going to screw my son up somehow. It'll be found fifteen years from now that sitcom/parenting book parenting is all wrong, and I've scarred him irreparably.
