[...] Once upon a time I mentioned about my mom, the teacher. Today we shall finish that thought. It should be obvious to anyone who reads this blog, that I love to get on a soapbox and preach. Give me a captive audience and I’ll sit and give fundaes on irrelevant things in life, till the cows come home. (Once they’re home, I expect them to listen as well.) And with a teacher-mom at home, I like to believe that this lecturing habit is in my genes, as opposed to other parts of my wardrobe. [...]

well i “am” a lot like my mom too and my sis and i keep fighting over that – dad tries hard to lure us with his “qualities” saying that being like him will etitle us to those but both me and sis pass on that offer :)

interestingly the start of ur post reminded me of something my mom says – every time we asked her for a pet she said “no thank you, i have two children”. cheers.

>guys go through something similar with their dads?

Hmmm..I guess Life is simple for guys. You just know what you want to know about your dad and thats it.Never tried to become like him or not him etc. I guess I am unable to assess that. :)

My personal observations on this is that, for guys it swings to 2 extremes. Just like, or just the opposite.

Either way, there are not so many phases, but the end result is the same.

[Sagnik] Do all moms co-conspire to come up with these lines or something? My mum gave me the same excuse each time — when I wanted a cat, a dog, a horse, a goat, an ant farm .. well you get the picture :)

[Paddy] You sure have it easy then. A lot of it just happens without trying, I guess. Mostly just an in-retrospect observation ..

[.:A:.] How nice and simple! Or maybe I just like to overcomplicate it ;)

[Anand] Not fair! I did ask a guy's opinion too!

Megha, one major difference between guys and girls is, we guys don’t *think* about stuff like this and waste our time. Instead, we devote that time to other important activities like drooling over beautiful blonde girls or going to other people’s blogs and leaving comments like these! (wink)

i’d certainly like to be like my mom – a gutsy, never-say-die, resourceful, and creative lady!
