A child who looks like a father will have three changes in his psychology. It's very realistic, don't be in a hurry to deny it.
What's the most lovable thing about visiting a newborn? It's not that the baby looks exactly like the mother, but the baby looks exactly like the father! This is a saying that kills three birds with one stone. The child looks like the father, which proves that the father is his own son, and affirms the loyalty of the mother. Second, to make the mother-in-law happy, our family genes are good. Third, the role of the father is implicitly emphasized. Let the father love the child more. In fact, there is no need for outsiders to boast. When a father sees that his child looks very similar to himself, he will take the initiative to produce three kinds of psychological changes. In fact, it is very realistic.
The first psychology, very proud, there is a sense of genetic narcissism
Regarding who the baby looks like, it seems that the mother is more sensitive, but in fact, the most sensitive is the father. Remember to read a news that the child looks like the mother and not the father. Wrong, it can be seen that when a father sees a child who is not like himself, he is very concerned, but if the situation is the opposite, when the baby looks very similar to his father at a glance, the father will have a sense of pride in his heart, which is unique to men. A kind of psychology that represents a strong possessiveness and territorial consciousness. When his genes are revealed in the next generation, this feeling is particularly strong, but men are not good at expressing them, otherwise you will see that he will do whatever he wants. Boast, look how strong my genes are, and how much my child looks like me! This is just like when the mother is pregnant. The first thing that the mother realizes is the emotion, and the first thing that the father thinks is that I am amazing, and I became pregnant soon after I was preparing for pregnancy! Look, this is the way men think.
The second psychology, the affirmation of the wife's loyalty
In China, the child's birth certificate shows the father's and mother's names together, but in the United States, the child's birth certificate only has the mother's name, and the reason they give is that the child's mother is sure because they saw it with their own eyes. When the child is born, as for the father, it is not certain, so when a child looks particularly like a father, the father will first give full marks to his wife's loyalty, and then will be grateful to his wife for bearing children for him. , is this realistic? Men always figure out where they belong before being nice to someone, they don't get carried away with joy.
The third psychology is to prefer children who look like themselves
When a child looks like a father, the father will have a preference for the child in his heart. This is not a casual statement, but a scientific basis. Psychologist Steven Pradick A few years ago, Recruited a group of volunteers, took pictures of them, and used technology to combine their facial features with the looks of some children, so that there are some children who are very similar to them, they divided the photos into groups, right Volunteers asked questions, which child would you like to accompany, and which child would you like to pay child support? The results were very interesting. The male volunteers chose children who looked more like themselves, and they even chose to forgive when the children made mistakes.
When psychologists further increased these similarities, when a child had more than 50% similarity in appearance with a male volunteer, he showed a willingness to adopt a child, while women did not show this tendency. This experiment is sufficient It has been confirmed that men prefer children who look like themselves.
Therefore, in a family with a second or third child, if a child is very similar to the father, whether it is a boy or a girl, the father will show a preference for this child. This child also has a more competitive advantage than other children, so many children grow up When I was older, when I complained about my father's partiality, it was actually a real problem, and it also existed widely among men. It can only be said that this child is more fortunate.
In addition, a man's preference for a child will also be reflected in other aspects, such as similar interests. When he finds that the child is very similar to him in a certain aspect, he will also be very interested, so the two kinds of children are in front of the father. They are very popular, either because they look a lot like their father, or their personality and hobbies are more in line with their father, and their father is more willing to devote more company and energy to them.
Therefore, this also gives mothers an inspiration. If the baby looks very similar to the father, let the father participate and let him help you take care of the child. Mothers can also take the opportunity to be lazy.
