-- Posted by Reefer at 9:15 pm on July 18, 2008 I find myself acting like my dad more and more everyday. Its genetics I tel you! Anyways, I need serious answers on how to be my own person rather than my dad. Seriously, I'm just like him. I'm always insulting other people, always sarcastic kinda violent (like when i say this i mean I just go up to people and punch them on the shoulder, playfully) How od I become my own person! -- Posted by TheOtherHorseman at 3:34 pm on July 19, 2008 Genetics is only part of the equation. Being your father's son in no way even guarantees you'll be like you're father. As you get older, you'll become more independent. When you graduate from high school and head off on your own, you'll be in an environment where you aren't constantly exposed to your family, or even your usual group of friends depending on what you end up doing. It is an excellent opportunity to reinvent yourself and become the person you want to be. -- Posted by Reefer at 9:32 pm on July 19, 2008 Thanks
