From mom and dad to me, and from me to my kids.

in Hive Learners11 months ago

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.

The ability to stay calm through the storm.

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 sense of responsibility.

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.

Same goes to my Mom when she was still alive if people are panicking about something she won't even panick, sometimes people used to think she doesn't care but those who already know her will know that she's also panicking but she doesn't show it. And it's true if someone is facing a situation and the person is calm and thinking about the way they should solve the problem they will be able to find the solution to solve the problem.

Sorry about your mom. Well people expect everyone to panic, but not everyone gives room for that.

Your parents are wonderful for passing on such good traits to you which you will definitely share with your kids.

I am glad they did. Thanks for stopping by.

You're welcome.

Panicking can complicate issues. When you are in panic mode, the calmness to think issues through won't be there again. You end up making mistakes. It is a fact that panicking can't get one out of the woods.
Your dad has done great by training you with the trait of responsibility. Every family man needs this to run a working home.

Exactly, panicking can make matters escalate which is why giving room for it is a no no.

Thanks for stopping by.

You are set to be a father, having a sense of responsibility is what every grown man should possess but unfortunately many don't. Fathers are really trying, it's not easy managing both work and your home. Kudos tos your dad

You just reminded me of the story of Jesus and his disciples in the boat during a storm. Panicking only makes things worse, the best way to survive through a turbulence is to keep calm and put yourself together, thats when you will be able to look for a solution.

Mom has a good trait, many people lack this ability, and it's part of the reason why they end up ruining things they ought not to destroy. If you can put yourself together during a difficult time, you would find life very easy.

You are very lucky to possess these traits broh

Panicking can complicate issues, so staying calm is the way out but many don't know that.

Thanks for reading.

You are welcome

Your mother is a wise person who does not get carried away by the moment, and she transmitted you that teaching, those values so that you can be a person who thinks before acting and your father, despite the distances, knew that he had a responsibility and he fulfilled it completely, he acted as a person committed to his family should act. How nice that you inherited those traits from your parents and passed them on to the next generations. A pleasure to read your post. Best regards.

Double combo, I love the two power-packed characteristics you took from your parents. Your children will be proud to inherit them from you.
