INTERESTING – ok

(borrowed from songbird)

Why is it that the same parents raise some very different children???? Of course the answer is that we are changing, and life is changing, all the time. Different we are, different the world is.
This does make a lot of sense.
While we are raising are children the world is changing as are we.
Our finances might change, where we live etc etc. Also a big influence on our children is their surroundings and their friends.
As we grow and hopefully mature we see things differently. I certainly have changed 100% since I got married and had my family. I would do things so differently. To be continued

My sisters and I are so far apart in age that it’s like we were raised by different parents. Of course my parents changed a lot between when my sisters were born and when I was born…. my sisters were aged 18 and 14 when I was born! So yes, what you say makes a lot of sense! hugs, Weesprite

Every single child is born to be their own person. My siblings and I are very similar, yet very different in many ways. And we each have unique perceptions of how we were raised. I think we all can agree that we had a happy childhood. That is a lot.

Also, anybody who has raised more than one child knows that they are born with personalities already in place and no matter how you raise them, they insist on being themselves.

As you can tell from my diary, my brother and I are vastly different. None of us really know what’s come over him, but he and i are just not on the same wavelength anymore. Years ago we were so in tuned to eachother that we were like twins. Now I have no idea what goes through his head.
