10. Fear of the dentist
If you would rather ride the highest rollercoasters in the world, than take a seat in the dentist’s chair, you can blame your father for that. According to scientists, it has been proven that dental visits are an activity that can be passed down from father to children through socialization.
A study published in the International Journal of Paediatric Dentistry in 2012 helped researchers find that if a member of the family experienced severe anxiety about dental work, it is more likely that the rest of the family will experience something similar.
In addition to that, it has been found that when it comes to taking a seat in the dentist’s chair, children tend to take their emotional directions from their fathers, rather than their mothers.

my grandfather on my mother’s side was called “Black Tom Murphy” …because of his black hair. I am 86 and just started to have some gray in my black hair!!!!
I THINK THIS INFORMATION WAS VERY INFORMATIVE AND HELPFUL & INTERESTING.
I like it because I feel connected to my loved ones and that feels good even though they are gone,
As far as for the teeth i got the space from my Mother’s side. Not my Dad’s.
