      We have children together my youngest looks so like me I compared it to a pic of me when I was younger but my other one looks so much like him I love my daughter but it’s a constant reminder my child has my mannerisms but how do others cope with this I keep thinking why dosent she look like me other people say my child is spit of me but I can only see him physically i don’t want to resent my child

      Hi Mellow

      I hope you are ok.

      I have a child who really looks up to her dad and tries to emulate him. I know she really misses him and sometimes she doesn’t want to be close to me.

      I think it’s really important for me to see my kids as seperate people in themselves rather than part of me or part of him. At least that’s what I try to do anyway.

      Don’t know if this helps but just my thoughts.
