theres genetics from mom and dad that go into the kid and there could be more of the mom in one kid and more of the dad in the other kid, or the kid could even look like their grandma when they were young cause genetics could be passed down or from there grandpa or whatever.

it may just be for the time being. my sister has brown hair and looks NOTHING like my mom. my mother has blond hair and my sister has brown hair. my mother had brown hair as a child. so I'm pretty sure my sister will be a blond in the future. so, your child may not look like you now, but in the future I'm pretty sure you 2 will look alike.

Why do boys look like their mothrs and girls like their fathers?

The gender of the child will not be corresponded to the sex of the parents. The child's appearances will just be of the child's genes. In other words it is not meant for a daughter to look like a father and a son to look like a mother, as it can be vice verse.

What is foster family?

A foster family is when a child who is in a foster home is fostered. Children in foster homes are children who have parents that are too busy to look after them, ill with a serious illness or have died. People can foster a child and look after a child ( a bit like adopting) but most of the time their parents are still alive so the child can't be adopted but can be fostered. The children can still see their parents and people they met at their foster home.


Can both parents with blood group o have a child with blood group A?

No. A parent who is O can only have a child who is also O. If two parents who are O have a child, the child will also be O. But if one parent is O and the other is A, then they can have a child who is A, or a child who is O. The genes would look like this: Blood type O: OO Blood type A: AO The parent who is A can give either an A gene or an O gene. But the parent who is O can only give an O gene. Their children would look like this: A, A, O, O. If both parents are O, their children would look like this: O, O, O, O. So, once again, your answer is no. Hope this helped!
