Why the children of the same parents behave differently?

All parents must wonder from time to time why their children, produced by the same gene pool, can be so different from each other. Often even siblings who look the same and are raised in essentially the same environment can be like night and day, opposites in so many ways.


"It means we all have a common heritage, and it sounds like we are nearly identical, but if you think about the size of the genome, you inherit 3 billion pairs of nucleotides, or chemical bases of genetic information, from your mom and your dad. So even 0.1 percent difference is still 3 million chemical base changes, so that's a lot."


And it is that 3 million different sources of genetic information that make us each different, scientists have argued.



Another interesting view for this


Child or any praani acts as per his previous birth’s behaviour,mentality etc. This is called poorva janma samskaara. Souls are divided as satvic, rajo and taamsic.

A new born child , till it gets buddhi or loukik gyaan acts as per it’s behaviour or mentality in previous birth …. The moment it starts recieving knowledge aboutt the world in it’s current birth …. it gets a chance to change it’s rajo or tamo nature by reading scriptures , by contacting a sadguru, by japa or prayer or any such spiritual activities.




We carry our previous nature ( sat or rajo or tamo ) to our next birth also.

The karmas of our previous birth are carried to our current life in the form of praarabdha karma. ie we have to experience either good or bad results for sure. Prarabdha karma is something which is a result of previously done good or bad karma. we cannot control this. Sanchita karma is something that we do in our present life as per our wish. This might be influenced by the results of prarabdha karma. AAgami karma is something that is yet to come.

True..I have noted that I do not think like my siblings or my parents or even any other relative.

So it has to be a Karmic reason I feel.I dont think I am adopted becos my brothers and I look alike!

As much as I am different from either of my parents, I also find many, many similarities with them, especially my mother. My mother is the atmost 'truth speaker'. She does not even evaluate or judge a situation and modify her responses - mostly facts related to personal life and other sensitive details - my mom reveals them as and when as they were to the audience, even if they are just marginally known to her. In many circumstances, I feel I share this common trait with my mother. I do not hide or mismanipulate facts to present a better picture of me, whosoever the audience is. And my father is a person who used to stand up for right causes always, risking his own stature and acceptability within a crowd. He was never afraid to break-loose if that's what it meant to be, from the crowd/group he belonged to, to stand-up for a just cause. And I share this trait with him.

This is Chit chat section for casual discussion only; i do not wish to involve in a long heated exchanges of Views.

If you wish to go deep into this subject, you can search the topic through Google, and you will find many answers
rejecting the notion of Karma, and many supporting the theory of Karma.

It's all your belief and Faith VS My belief and Faith .

Dear JR,

Your parents are similar to my parents.

For them right is strictly right and wrong is strictly wrong..that is why I differ from them becos I feel there is no real right and real wrong.

I always feel its hard to have a real stand in life becos our perception can change over time..so what I feel is right for me today might not right for me tomorrow and what I feel is wrong today might not be wrong tomorrow.

So since I can never decide for myself I wont dare feel anything is right or wrong.

Dear Renuka,

Your perception is very different from mine. It is not that I go with night vs. day, good vs. evil ideologies to define the constitution of our heroes and villains, however, I tend to think it is not so blurred as you believe in either. No, I do not wish to bring in another 'pandava vs. kaurava' debate in here, but I can say that within the varying shades of grey, some greys can be ask dark as Black itself, and some as light as White itself. There have been good people both in our political history, as well as in ithihasas, puranas, as well as 'middle men' who neither belong here or there, such as 'Durvasa' muni ( I guess his weakness was just anger but if we inspect closely, that anger is flamed by ego?) so I look upon all these for inspiration how I should live, if atleast 1% of patriotism, 1% of courage is imparted by having them as my role models, I consider myself blessed.

Cheers,

Jayashree

There is a very easy scientific explanation for this. It is called chromosomal crossover during the process of meiosis while creating male and female gametes.

You are not getting an intact chromosome from either of your parents. It is a splicing of the two chromosomes from either parent. Hence you may have characteristics different from either parent because some genes may be expressed which were not expressed in the parents. That's why children sometimes have characteristics of their grandparents.

Biswaji you might be right, but that alone does not explain the differences between siblings. There has been numerous studies done among identical twins to see differences in personalities. To an great extent we are what we are can only be explained by Karma theory.

Yes, you are right genetics is not the only thing. Environment is also a factor and there are also mutations. I am not an expert in Karma theory, but it seems kind of scary.
