The article I chose was “How Similar Are You to the Adults Who Raised You?”. I feel like I do have a lot in common with my parents, but since I’ve been growing up in America, I’ve definitely picked up some American traits. My parents adapted to some of my American traits, which is why they added more food dishes to their menu. The similarities in our family are definitely a good thing, but when it comes to competition, it can get hectic. I haven’t experienced what Ms. Grose went through, but my parents probably did and I will probably experience that when I become a dad since that’s a common feeling. There are traits that i dont see myself adapting to, which is being extremely cheap. There are benefits to being cheap, but being too cheap to the point of being unhealthy isn’t something I want to do. Ms. Grose should express her feeling with her child with no filter and be straight up open. I feel like when parents aren’t talking openly without a filter, it makes it less meaningful. When my parents addresses similarties, they often add a story to make it memorable.

Personally I’ve definitely picked up the traits from my parents, but as i grew older i almost started picking and choosing the traits i didn’t like and leaving them behind.
