[QUOTE="Lil, post: 674499, member: 17309"] It never ceases to amaze me that mine is, in fact, my own flesh and blood. WHY exactly did MY 50% of his genetic material seemingly count for nothing??? :( I told the girlfriend when she asked why he was SO different from us that, sadly, genetics seem to be much more powerful than I gave them credit for, but it's still darn frustrating that the only parent he seems to resemble is biodad. I suppose that's not 100% true. He's MUCH brighter than his biodad was. Not bragging, but he didn't get his brains from that parent...the man once argued with me that if you watch cartoons on a black and white TV, you'll still see them in color. It would be nice to have a second child. It would be nice to see that I did something right. You can safely assume, when you look at your wonderful "good kids" that YOU are NOT the one that caused the Difficult Child troubles. [/QUOTE]
