As an adult, how much of your behavior is a reflection of those who raised you?

  

Most of my behavior - I am who I am because of them (20.7%)

Some of my behavior - My upbringing had some impact, but not all (72.4%)

None of my behavior - I am my own person (6.9%)

    I believe I got my manners and socialization skills from my parents, but turned out very different from them. But I wouldn't be who I am without them.

    I would hope that I am the person I am because of those around me while growing up. I have the best mother in the world who sacrificed everything for her kids and never let us not know we were loved. She raised us so we would all be respectful, caring, fun loving people.

    I should clarify that often I make the conscious effort to do things differently than my parents because of my own experience. But it is an influence none the less.
