Types of children of dual pairs

[Slacker]

This comes from the "Words my Baby Knows" thread in Anything Goes

I am IEE and my husband is SLI. I'm quite sure our older daughter is IEE, and there are some signs that the younger one could potentially be SLI, though she's very young so it's early yet.

Maritsa (I think I finally know how to spell her name) thinks that this is how it works with duals. What have people seen IRL? I'm trying to think of dual couples I know whose kids are old enough and whose kids I know well enough where I feel comfortable typing them. I know another SLI/IEE couple whose daughter is I believe ILI, but while I'm pretty sure of her type I wouldn't call myself absolutely sure as I don't see her often.

So give me some info from people you know very well.

Dad: LSE
Mom: EII
Adopted Son: IEE

Dad: LSE
Mom: EII
Daughter: Introverted decisive?
Daughter: IEE
Son: Introvert

Dad: IEE
Mom: SLI
Son: LII
Daughter: LSE
Son: SEI
Son: SLE

No others come to mind at the moment.

I do believe (based on what I see in my dad's Delta family and my mom's Gamma family), that type is genetically inheritable. But like all other stuff that's inheritable, it's not just the parents that you inherit genes from, but also grandparents genes that may lie 'dormant' in your parents etc. Not that I'm planning to have kids, but if I were to have children with my SEI GF, I think there would still be a chance of having a Gamma child, since I might carry 'Gamma genes' from my mom.

Genetics is a complicated thing.

ETA:

my father: SLI
mother: ESI
stepfather: LSI
my dad's 2nd wife: LSE

full bother: SEE - his daughter: SEE

half brother from my mom: LSI

Half brother from my dad: LSE, his wife: LSE
half sister from my dad: EII, her husband: LSE

my dad's mother: EII

my mother's family:
dad: SEE - his mother: ESI
mother: LSI
brother: LIE
sister: SEE

This is true too.

I have a Gamma mom and a Beta dad, and my husband's parents are Alpha, so really we could still have kids of any quadra then.

Can you yourself trace back your 'delta-ness' to some ancestor(s)??

My dad's parents were both Delta NFs. But really there are 16 types, and if we go back far enough, we can probably find every type in everyone's ancestory.

That is true, but if I recall correctly from biology, genes don't go that far back (or was it chromosomes??). Anybody here who can explain genetics in this respect??

[The Exception]

Also, if you go back far enough you'll find we're all related to each other.

Since there's no 'socionics' gene in people, you would probably have to 'type' certain traits or characteristics in genes. I wonder if there will be full time jobs like that int eh future

But yeah, without knowing all that we don't really know the chances of certain offspring so there will be outliers that might confuse us.
If it helps any, I've got gamma parents who have produced alphas and deltas, and perhaps beta too if I've got the typing of a 5 year old correct

Since there's no 'socionics' gene in people

We don't know that as yet. Mainstream genetic science has not investigated this yet. However, based on my perceptions in real life, I think it makes a nice hypothesis. Of course, after it has been extablished whether socionics types is either fully nurture or nature, or a mix of both.

ETA: I get your point now: no specific socionics gene. That's true of course, genes typically work together, and single genes might have multiple purposes.

Since there's no 'socionics' gene in people, you would probably have to 'type' certain traits or characteristics in genes.

this is an interesting point too. Maybe there are a number of genes that together make up a type. OR influence type.
