Quiz Break

The best of iVillage's quizzes and tools to help you love the life you lead.

 
Are you turning into your mother? (now you're a mother too)
You are nothing like your mother. The way she raised you bears zero resemblance to your own parenting style. But hang on. Was that you, growling, 'Elbows off the table' - or your own mother talking?


Try Fiona Gibson's quiz and spot the warning signs - before it's too late...

1. When you announced your baby's name, did your mother:
  Express no surprise - as she played a major part in choosing it?
  Snap, 'That's interesting' and ask you to spell it?
  Say, 'That's nice' and express no further opinion?
 
2. Your mum observes that your child 'isn’t wearing enough layers'. Do you:
  Bung a sweater on him just to keep your mum happy?
  Assure her he's fine, but secretly keep checking he's warm enough?
  Ask, 'Do you want him to overheat, or what?'
 
3. Your mum knits fashion horrors that would have your infant drummed out of playgroup. Do you:
  Dispatch them straight to the charity shop?
  Allow your child to wear them under cover of darkness?
  Accept her offerings (at least they're free) and feel grateful for her kindness?
 
4. Admit it. You've said something to your child - and it could have been your own mother talking. Does this make you…
  Sigh in recognition?
  Feel horrified?
  Laugh - there's simply no escaping her?
