Do you find that your childhood reading/show interests parallel your child's?
Somewhat, though my kids are DEFINITELY their own people! I have no interest in anything car-related, yet DS6 has always been all about things with wheels. Robots and superheros were never my thing as a kid, but DS3 LOVES them! Some of that might be gender-related though. I was all about horses when I was a kid. <shrug>
But when it comes to books and stories, I'd say we share similar interests. They like funny books like Pippi Longstocking and so did I. They like history and science, and so did I. They like myth and legend and I ate that up with a spoon.
I guess I'd say that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, but it isn't the same as the tree...
