Turning Into Your Parents: The Timeline
Who'd have thought that time would fly and our parents' influence would rub off on us? Apparently, according to a fun survey conducted by M&S Credit Card, there's a specific age when this change occurs - and it might be sooner than you think!
Now, if you're a lady, brace yourselves, as it seems you'll start displaying these characteristics a tad earlier - around the ripe age of 42 years old[1]. Blokes, don't worry just yet, you've got a little more time, with the average age being 45.
Georgia Lambert, who covered this survey for The Times, couldn't help but notice this transformation lurking around the corner. So, what are some of the telltale signs that you're becoming your parent's doppelganger?

- Drowsing on the couch: A cozy couch never felt so inviting, as it seems it attracts 33% of the transformation-seekers.
