Hehe. Parents have a big affect on their kids. I blame my dad for my shyness and gentleman like qualities.
Can't really distinguish where I got my interest in politics from tho. - No-one else in the family cares!

Neither of my parents are shy. But I am really shy (ok, you can stop laughing now!)

I get my sarcasm off my mum

I know someone who has taught his 2 year old step son to say 'Suck my penis Bitch' to his (the stepdads) mates and 'Chill Mummy' to his mother. I feel sorry for that kid when it goes to nursery next year!

i taught that word 2 my mum, she had no idea what it ment adn used it on a kid at shcool where she teaches, oops!
