19 people who followed in their parents' footsteps
Some jobs are "passed" down the generations. Born into a family of farmers, a child might love the idea of raising animals or crops and working outdoors rather than behind a desk. Maybe your mom or dad was a flight attendant, which gave you a taste for a globe-trotting career...
Some kids feel obliged to follow their parents' wishes, but this selection proves that many do it out of an instilled sense of passion - and you can see how happy they are! It goes to prove that we don't just resemble our parents physically, but are also born with similar aptitudes and inherent skills.
