Hello, everyone.
Welcome to my blog and another wonderful edition of the Hive Learners' featured post. According to biology, both parents contribute 23 pairs of chromosomes each, making a total of 46. This only helps prove that children inherit half of their father's trait and the other half from their mother. It's all genetics; there's definitely going to be something we inherit from both our parents; it might be looks, shape, or, in most cases, how they behave and respond to situations.

Many of us see our parents as the best role models anyone can emulate, and we want to follow in their footsteps. They have helped steer our lives in the right direction, and we are forever grateful to them for how far we have come. Most of the few traits they passed on to us have helped us in ways too numerous to mention. I cannot recall how many times a trait I know I got from my mom saved me from trouble, and I am glad I got that from her.
Sometimes, after an action or after saying something, I find myself smiling, because I know that is exactly how my mom or dad would have reacted too. Sometimes, after an action, I say to myself, Indeed, these are the people that gave birth to me; no DNA is needed; I exhibit characters my mom and dad exhibit too. Sometimes I give the same response they would have given to a silly question, more like we are thinking exactly the same thing. In subsequent paragraphs, I will share with you a few traits I got from mom and dad, and I will like to pass them on to my kids.
It is really not easy to not panic during a storm or difficult situation, but my mom always finds a way to stay calm. Even when the rest of the family is panicking and thinking about what can be done about a situation that we are in, I don't know how she does it, but you will never see her panicking like the rest of us. She stays quiet in a corner and think. According to her, you cannot think straight when you have given tension a chance, so instead of giving into panicking, you calm down and think about a solution or a possible way out, as panicking does not solve the problem nor does it take it away, so stay calm no matter what.
This particular trait is one of the best so far. In school, there are countless situations that require panicking, but staying calm and thinking of possible solutions helped me out, and I was able to solve them without any mistakes. When you panic, you give room for mistakes. Even during my exams, which are one of the biggest storms every student has to face in school, I try to stay as calm as I can, and it has helped me.
A responsible dad is one thing every child needs in order to grow up and have a sense of responsibility too. While growing up, my dad was never around due to the nature of his job, but never for once did he fail his responsibility. Despite the distance, he still carried out his responsibility without waiting to be told or reminded. Know what is expected of you, and do it without waiting to be told. That is what he tells my siblings and me whenever we fail to do the right thing.
This is one trait I inherited, and it has helped me to do what's expected of me at the right time and not wait until I am told to do it.
Thanks for reading my post.
