[QUOTE="Lil, post: 650526, member: 17309"] Oh yes. The evil genes seem to win. My ex and I split when he was six months old. He saw him occasionally until he was 5 and I married Jabber. He never saw him again. When he was under 2, he was already acting like biodad. First thing I noticed was this little smile he'd get when he was being yelled at or punished. Just made you want to smack him. Then there was the arguing. I'm a lawyer - so it's not like I don't argue lol - but if you said the sky was blue, my son would say, "It's actually kind of gray." So many, many behaviors that are just like his biodad. He stole from his parents, ran with the wrong people, drank (my son doesn't drink, but loves his herb), eventually took up a life of crime and died in jail when my son was 7. That my son already has a shoplifting charge has me more than a little freaked out. The only part of me he got was his IQ, I swear. Maybe my temper - but I don't go ballistic and break things. And my looks....he doesn't look like his biodad except for the skinniness, thank God. [/QUOTE]
