A Genetic Wish: Creating My Ideal Child For Greatness

I still get surprised by my resemblance with my mum, if it's by number, I'd say I got over 80% of her gene. The resemblance even go down to habits and how our system reacts to some things we take. I'm sure many parents have that one kid among their children too, I'm not sure I want it.

While it is cool to have a photocopy of myself in my child, there are some traits I'd rather it ends with me than be passed down to any of my future kids. I've never really fantasized about my future kids, at least not too deeply but this prompt made me realize there are traits I want to see in them.

Children are a blessing to their parents but today, we have parents who wish they didn't birth some kids because of how they turn out to be. More than how my children look like, I'm more concerned about how they behave, their intellect level and their attitude towards life in general.

Of course, I'd want to have children who are physically blessed like I am. The height has to be there, lovely hair and a better skin than mine lol. I'm not sure if it's advisable to use this as a criteria to finding a partner but I hope my future husband will help my genetic wishes come true.

Someone said, "Marry guy with small head so you can have children with small heads, I have my reason" jokingly and we all laughed to it but the reason was clear. Even during childbirth, any extra difficulty isn't needed, so one of the many things I'd want my kid to have is small head lol.

If I want to be more specific about what I want in my future kids, they should all have height and not too slim but just the right amount of fat to look healthy and fit always. Maybe there is no fat in my mum's gene to take, she isn't slim but she's not fat too but I'd love her body at that age too.

Having kids who look their age or younger than their age is also an ideal one for me, I can't get used to seeing kids who look much older than their age confusing people around lol. It's why I fear too much fat or weight, it tends to make some children look older than their age mates.

All my kids can have my height and hair but I'd rather they don't take the way my system reacts to some things that I take, they should have less trouble with their health unlike me. I'd want my kids to be strong naturally, which I'm not lol. I'm hoping they will get this trait from their father.

For their attitude and intellect, I've always dreamed of having very smart kids especially with the fact that we are in a smart era, they would have to work less and earn more using their brains than their muscles but they will learn as much as they can in many aspects as backup.

I want to have kids that are beautiful in many ways, their looks, their attitude and the kind of skills they get to have no matter how little it is. I'm not a too stubborn kid to my parents so I wish that I don't have one too, having a few kids who are not so stubborn but obedient to elderly ones.
