It’s not uncommon for children to look like their parents and older family members. After all, it’s in their DNA.
Most children have a mix of both parents’ characteristics, according to the DNA Learning Center. But in some cases, a child looks more like one parent than another. And those families have no problem sharing their pictures on social media.
Both The Huffington Post and The Today Show published articles that used social media to find parent-child look alikes, fueled by parents who were eager to show the similarities between themselves and their children.
We’ve decided to do something similar, thanks to photos we found on Pinterest from MyHeritage, a site that helps individuals discover their own family history. Click through the slideshow below to see photos of 15 children who look just like their parents.
