This is ABSOLUTELY true!!! My daughter can have an expression that looks JUST like her low-life father even though she hasn't seen him since she was two. So it isn't from seeing the expression. It makes me want to say things like "STOP LOOKING LIKE YOUR FATHER!".

My own study says: "People who are close blood relatives tend to be alike in a lot of ways!"
Amazing.
Where do I collect my $1M in research grant money?
I'm also available for research on the color of the sky, and the grass.

I have thought from time to time how our face determines our life.
We all know people who have a grumpy looking face despite their best efforts to "happy" it up. I am sure it brings out the grump in the way others treat them, thereby putting a whole grouch cycle into motion.
Ditto for folks with naturally happy faces- or smart, or mischevious, or funny, or sexy, etc...

Nancy Pelosi has an interesting facial expression.
But I don't think she was born with it ...

So all those times my mother said to stop making that face or my face would freeze that way it was HER face that was already frozen there? Is there nothing we can't blame on our parents?

I agree. When my daughter was a child, she was in a program where children were placed in a nursing home in the afternoons with the older people. I couldn't help notice how frozen the looks of most of the people's faces were. There was love, tenderness, kindness, bitterness, hatred, etc. I figured it was a summary of their life experiences.

A lot of Freepers are like Ann Coulter - making a political statement out of any subject! Amd usually a funny one at that! Very good observation and point! 8-)
