Question from a reader:
I’ve been seeing a lot of articles about Hirai Ai’s children, and they always mention that they resemble Nagatomo. I personally think they look more like their mother, so why are there no articles saying they take after her? Isn’t it the case that Nakamura Shido’s children are said to resemble their father?
It’s Truly Mysterious Who
Kids Resemble!
Recently, Hirai Ai and Nagatomo’s children have been trending. Every time I see their pictures, I find myself wondering who they resemble. Indeed, many articles state that “they look like Nagatomo,” but I think it’s perfectly valid to have opinions suggesting they take after their mother as well.
Is it a Barrier of Recognition?
It might partly be due to Hirai Ai’s level of recognition. Nagatomo certainly has a significant presence in the soccer world, which might lead many to perceive the children as resembling their father. I also often hear “they look like Dad!” when it comes to my own children, so I can definitely relate.
The Big, Bright Eyes
On a different note, both Hirai Ai and Nagatomo have those big, bright eyes, and it’s striking how their children have inherited that trait. My own child has big eyes, and while people often say, “they look like Dad,” there are moments when I think, “Oh, wait, they also resemble Mom.”
Boys Take After Their Fathers?
The idea that “boys are often said to resemble their fathers unless they strongly resemble their mothers” seems pretty relatable. I remember when my child was first born, people would say, “That’s definitely your dad’s face,” which made me a bit bashful. But as they grow, I start to see features from their mother too, and enjoying those changes is one of the joys of parenthood.
What Do You Think?
So, what do you all think? Who do you think the children resemble? If you have any interesting stories or insights from your own parenting experiences, I’d love to hear them in the comments! I’m eager to hear different perspectives, and if we can relate to each other’s experiences, that would be wonderful. It’d be great if we could share our parenting journeys and enjoy the process together!
