Families.
There is a tendency among some women to believe that however hard you try, you end up like your mother. Well, it's hard to say if that's the case with me because my mother passed away when I was only nine, and my father was left a widower. He did remarry several years later, and I was brought up by my father and stepmother. I know the presence of a new woman in the family can be difficult, but we have always had a really positive relationship. We are not alike in looks or character, but I think I've picked up one or two of her good habits. For example, I always remember to write personally to thank people for birthday or Christmas presents.

By my teens, my father told me that I was starting to resemble my mother a bit more, and it seems I have got one or two of her characteristics. (Like me, she didn't take criticism very well!) But I think it's now increasingly apparent that I take after my father more in character and behaviour. That's fine by me, although it seems to be the opposite with my two siblings, both sisters. My dad says that they remind him much more of my mother.
