Your interests - moretime they would have been encouraged or discouraged by your parents - the ones they didn't like its probably safe to say they would have discouraged them, and the ones they did, they would have encouraged, perhaps bought you stuff to stimulate them etc.So you would have gotten better at them, and subseuqnetly later down the line considered a profession in them blah blah.That's just a loose example.Or you could look at the schools you went to. You parents would have chosen them for you. Maybe not your secondary school or college, but if they didnt want you going somewhere they probably would have voiced their opinions and dissuaded you.Your choice of friends.If they didnt like them, same rules apply etc. Although its harder to police this anyway.The apple moretime doesn't fall far from the tree with most people.The exception to this is if you made every decision on your own, with no inteference from your parents. Which is both unlikely and would reflect the parenting skills of said parents...

Props, but calling her an estate mum ain't accurate since she is an educated woman. Went to an English Grammar School in Nigeria and Went to Uni in the USA. So she is hardly a council estate mum, shouting in a cockney accent "Dwele...Dinners ready".
