Some women essentially clone themselves or the dad.
I have a cousin, she had 5 kids, all with different dads, yet the 3 girls look exactly like the mom and the boys exactly like the dads.
And that cousin looks like her mom who looks like my grandma. But only that specific daughter of my grandma has the cloning abilities (my grandma had I think 11 kids).
Yeah, genetics is more complicated than that. Recessive genes/traits means that while half of genetic material (discounting that X an Y chromosomes are different sizes) comes from each parent, their kid’s appearance is not just having all traits be midway between their parents’ appearances. And there’s more complications than recessive genes like epiginetics, environmental factors, multi-gene traits, etc.
Does that mean the dad/husband looks like he could be their brother? Or is that not how these genetics work?

Interesting. The meme is to do half and half when depicting offspring in media. I didn’t know.
