if you could clone yourself....?

Question

and then raise yourself what would you do different from your parents? (people who are cloned come out as babies and are geneticly the same but they dont have your memories) how would you raise yourself...would you rather raise yourself or have regular children? also if you could be the parent of someone who is dead who would it be? i would like to raise einstien (btw they have his DNA)

Answer 1

Ohh nooo! You sound like my mom LOL. She always wished on me that I'd have 3 kids 'just like me' then I'd see how easy it was. If I had to raise myself I'd probably have locked me in the basement. No, I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy LOL. I much prefer having the children I do have, though I have to admit they seem to have inherited the stubborn gene.

Wow, you're sure asking for a wild ride wanting to raise Einstein. Brilliant yes but probably no fun to raise. I think maybe I'd choose Marilyn Monroe. Who knows what would result if you raised a smart, beautiful woman with a warm personality and sense of humor like she had to have a sense of self worth. Her low self esteem was her downfall. Perhaps she would be president.

Answer 2

Well I'm against cloning. It's unnatural & morally wrong. But for the sake of argument if I could clone myself I would be the parent I never had. I would be positive & encouraging & supportive. I would help my little me to get the most out of life, to follow her dreams, to take risks. To fly. My mother was afraid of everything. She tried to keep me in the nest too long & prune my wings so I'd be dependent on her & never fly. She didn't give me opportunities to grow. She stifled me. I know she loved me in her own way but she damaged me a great deal & poisoned me with her fear & negativity.

If I had a mini-me I would give her ballet and piano lessons (I'd wanted them so much as a kid but my mom said they couldn't afford it) even if I had to scrimp & save & starve myself I'd find a way to give her all the things I never had. I would encourage her to be strong. I would teach her to be independent & stand on her own two feet. I would gently push her out of the nest when she was old enough. Even though it would be hard to lose her & I'd miss her terribly it would be for her own good. I would teach her that she could do anything. I would tell her that life is beautiful, despite it's hardships. I would tell her to make the most of it...

I would nurture & love & care for her without smothering her...

Easy for me to say, I suppose. I don't plan to have kids. But if I did, I would try to be the perfect parent. I am now trying to be a nurturing parent to myself. I'm learning to be more positive. It's an uphill battle to undo the damage my parents & other experiences did. I often wonder how much more I might have done if I hadn't been so hampered by fear & negativity? It's never too late though. I'm starting to live my dreams & change my life. I'm repairing my wings & learning to fly...

Answer 3

I am enough. If I'll start cloning my self......, it would be disaster on the earth.
I don't think I need someone 'just like me' here on earth.
If somehow I'll have to clone myself, I'd rather send the clones to 'Moon' or somewhere......


; )

Answer 4

I would raise me in a mansion, and send myself to the best schools.
There would be twice the truthiness in the world!

Answer 5

love your question. i don't know how i feel about cloning.

to answer the rest... i don't remember everything but i would be able to inspire "lil me" beyond measure, understand, listen to her woes and triumphs, comfort her, etc.

i wouldn't mind a "lil me" or a "regular" child.

ps. i don't want to raise anyone who is dead. hehehe. lol.
