Hmm now that would be an interesting thing to research...i wouldn't think for a second that the complexities of the human mind can be passed on in full to a child but then at the same time..why not? it's always been said that the idea is unlikely on the grounds that mice with cut off tails don't give birth to tailess mice. Maybe the effects are not so sudden but there may still be an effect..wierdly i have a scar on my lip in the exact place size and shape as my father who put a tooth through it as a child..I was born with it! weird but possibly shear coincidence.
Anyway what i was talking about with friends etc is that you learn hoe ppl think..despit not knowing a lot about them there are still very simple ways to interpolate and work out from the way they act how they are thinking. Obviously if you've known someone a long time you can guess what thier reaction will be to something..even if you've not seen them in that situation before. It makes sence to assume from this that you have a copy, though a very simple one, of thier personality in your head. In some situations you may find yourself slipping into the way they would act or becoming more like them. Hence the appearance of knowing what each other are thinking...you do, but it's a subconsciouse educated guess...you only remember the times you got it spot on.
