Widow Alice has gotten herself a nice home, and is raising her son Bob there, happy except for the loss of his father—but it has been years, and she has her son. Except one day, Bob comes running home burbling about someone telling him that his father killed the dragon and demands to know more. And Widow Alice feels like she's been stabbed to the heart, envisioning her son lying before her, pale and bleeding, like his dying father had. A character has charge of a child (usually her son) and is desperate to keep this child from imitating another relative (usually his father). This is a fear of history's repeating itself for his fate, which may be turning evil and usually ends with being dead. Hereditary Suicide may be one cause. Making this relative a secret is one technique; though, this usually makes the forbidden relative Forbidden Fruit. Another, as popular, is extracting a promise, which the child will usually try to keep until the pressure gets too high. Trying to keep the child from evil has a fairly good success rate. Trying to keep him from his father's profession has a considerably poorer one, particularly when the reaction to the father's violent life is to try to make an Actual Pacifist; though the child may turn out less violent, there is usually something he must defend against. When the mother's motive is to keep him from being killed by the precise character who killed the father, this is generally a prequel to You Killed My Father. Keeping the Ancestral Weapon out of the child's hand is often an element of it, and when he finally gets it, a sign that the struggle is over, and the child will be like his father—Take Up My Sword metaphorically as well as literally. When the hero wants the child away from him, it's Give Him a Normal Life. When the villain wants to raise the kid to act differently, it's Evil Parents Want Good Kids. When the character hates his "condition" and doesn't want to pass it on, it's What If the Baby Is Like Me. See also Villainous Lineage, Generation Xerox, Follow in My Footsteps. Contrast Loser Son of Loser Dad, Raise Him Right This Time. |

With the direction the Fate of the Jedi book series is going, many fans predict a relationship between Ben Skywalker and Vestara Khai, mirroring the one between Luke and Mara. Vestara asks to be a Jedi, but things are still uncertain before the series's finale. Though, Ben is consistently trying to do just what Luke did, and get his father to accept it. | |

Ryan in The Boys (2019) is the Child by Rape of the Big Bad Homelander and Billy Butcher's wife Becca. Everyone involved wanted to prevent him from being a megalomaniac like his father (with Butcher intending to use him as a weapon against him), and attempted to keep his parentage a secret until Homelander himself showed up with the intent of giving him a happy childhood... and turning him into a Super Supremacist like himself. | |

The Dursleys do not want Harry Potter to turn out magical like his mother. So, they don't tell him about her or his father, and do their best to keep him from Hogwarts. This notably isn't because his parents were evil or even because the Dursleys care about him; they just don't like magic and hate the idea of there being a wizard in their "normal" family. | |

Bobby Singer in Supernatural has a whole series of flashbacks in the episode where he dies where it eventually is revealed that he was never willing to have kids because he was sure he'd turn out just like his father. Whom he shot. In the same place in the head where Dick Roman tagged Bobby. According to the Reaper, "you have the only genetic case of bullet-to-the-brain I've ever seen." | |

Neon Genesis Evangelion has its own unique spin on the trope—Gendo sent Shinji away because he was afraid of bringing him to harm. But the psychological harm that Gendo caused by abandoning Shinji and repeatedly pushing him away makes this plan backfire horribly. By the end of the series, the horribly broken Shinji is not very different from his father after all. Both tried to—or did—destroy the world because the woman they loved died. Yui in the case of Gendo, Asuka in the case of Shinji. |

Played with in Knights of the Old Republic, where the Jedi Council is trying to stop Revan from going down the same path he took last time around. It isn't the character's father, but the scene is played in the exact same manner down to the Council's reluctance to tell the player about Revan. | |

Averted by Soren and (possibly) Ike in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. Soren and Ashnard both believe that Tellius is a Crapsack World, but Soren's loyalty to Ike makes him more of a Knight in Sour Armor than an Omnicidal Maniac. Also, though Ike and Gawain are both exceptional swordsmen, it is implied that Gawain taught the Black Knight to be a Jerkass. | |

Dante in Dante's Inferno was raised almost entirely by his father due to his mother committing suicide to escape his father's cruelty and, in his backstory before his Heel Realization when the freaking Grim Reaper told him his sins were not forgiven and that he was damned, it shows. When he confronts his monstrously deformed father in Hell Dante admits that, rather than being a better man than his father, he has turned out to be far too much like him. | |

Mass Effect: The attempt to defy this trope is a big part of Miranda Lawson's character. When she realizes how close her desire to implant a control chip into Shepard's brain brought her to becoming like her father, she's horrified and ashamed, and practically begs Shepard for forgiveness. But it also plays this trope straight with Thane Krios. When he discovers that his son, Kolyat, who he hasn't seen for ten years on account of his work as an assassin, is following in his footsteps, Thane is horrified, and works with Shepard to track him down and talk some sense into Kolyat. |

The Heavenly Kid: A greaser is killed when his car goes over a cliff in a game of "Chicken". He comes back to Earth years later to become guardian angel to his nerdy teenage son. Neither of them know that they are father and son. The son starts acting like the greaser and says his catchphrase "I got it covered." This freaks out his mom, who is afraid he's going to die just like his father. | |

Batman: Villain The Penguin uses umbrellas because his father died of pneumonia, and his mother feared the same for him. Batman often voices—in his head via narration, as he would almost never voice such a thing out loud—how proud he is that the various Robins generally didn't end up like him, as his obsessive, miserable life is one he would wish on nobody, least of all his "sons." He particularly voices this in regards to Nightwing, whom he is extremely proud of due to Dick finding his own identity as a hero and a man—no matter how rocky the split was. |

In Legend of the Seeker, Richard accidentally time travels to a Bad Future. The flashbacks reveal that, after Richard's apparent death in his own time, Darken Rahl forced Kahlan to become his consort. She agreed, having found out from a witch that Richard is in the future and hoping that being Rahl's consort will allow her to survive long enough to provide Richard the necessary information in order to go back and change things. She ends up getting pregnant with a son and begs Rahl to allow her to kill him in accordance with Confessor custom, as male Confessors always turn out to be abusers of their abilities. Rahl refuses, excited at having a male heir, figuring that he ought to be able to mold a Confessor/sorcerer to his own ends. However, Nicholas Rahl turns out to be exactly like Rahl himself, killing his parents (just like Darken killed his father Panis) and becoming an even worse tyrant than his father, using his Confessor powers to force his people to adore him and attack anyone who doesn't. Fortunately, Richard is able to go back to the moment he left and stop it from happening. | |

It's underlined by both of them and their fascination with Jedi Master Jorus/Joruus C'baoth. True, the Jorus C'baoth Anakin knew was not yet insane (but he would be soon), whereas his clone Joruus really was, and Anakin was fourteen whereas Luke was in his late twenties. Still, Anakin liked C'baoth's philosophy that the non-Jedi were sheep at best and should be handled without asking, whereas Luke, despite being on a quest to find surviving Jedi and thus presumably more interested, instantly felt uneasy about these teachings even though he thought they made sense. | |

In One Piece, Marine Vice-Admiral Monkey D. Garp tries so very hard to make his grandson, Luffy, a Marine like himself. Unfortunately, he fails and Luffy instead becomes a highly-wanted pirate, making him not unlike his own father, who is the leader of a Revolutionary Army and the most wanted man in the world. Ironically, in the Water Seven Arc, Luffy and his crew proclaim war against the World Government, much like his father has. This is ultimately averted, however, in that Garp loves both his son and his grandson and is in fact quite proud of them. He just didn't want Luffy to be a pirate because it meant, as a Marine, he'd have to oppose his own grandson. | |

In Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War, Arvis has twin children, Julius and Julia. One of them has full Loptous blood (from both parents) and the other has full Naga blood (from their mother, Deirdre). So guess who Manfroy tries to remove to keep from emulating their other ancestor. That's right... Julia. Averted by Soren and (possibly) Ike in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. Soren and Ashnard both believe that Tellius is a Crapsack World, but Soren's loyalty to Ike makes him more of a Knight in Sour Armor than an Omnicidal Maniac. Also, though Ike and Gawain are both exceptional swordsmen, it is implied that Gawain taught the Black Knight to be a Jerkass. |

In Part II of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Erina is very worried about her grandson Joseph getting wrapped up in the stone mask business, as that's what killed Jonathan Joestar, her husband and his grandfather (and, as revealed later, it also led to the death of her son George), and men in the Joestar family have a history of dying rather young in general. Unfortunately, the call knew Joseph was vacationing in New York. A bit ironically, Joseph ends up being the only JoJo to die of old age. Later on, in Part V, a big part of why Jotaro Kujo sent Koichi to Italy to investigate Haruno Shibana, who by then went by the name Giorno Giovanna, was that after learning that Giorno is the biological son of Dio Brando, Jotaro feared that if left unchecked, the young man might become another threat just like his father. Luckily for everyone, key factors in Giorno's childhood, namely the unknowing intervention of a gangster with a sense of justice inspired the son of DIO to become a kind-hearted, if quite coldly ruthless member of the Joestar bloodline. |

Positive examples of this trope show up in King's Quest. Alexander and Rosella turn out to be just as capable as their father when it comes to adventuring. Alexander is a case of playing it straight, or even an exaggeration, as Mannanan went as far as to call Alex a different name and raise him in a faraway land. (Justified because Mannanan was a wicked wizard and the last thing he needed was a pissed-off Graham showing up) Rosella is an inversion—with her brother gone, she was raised to follow in Graham's footsteps, though she's a bit too much like her father for Valanice's comfort sometimes. | |

In an interesting twist, the father's original victim escaped and also had his child.

Later on, when Bramblepaw (renamed Brambleclaw) starts receiving training from Tigerstar, he and his half-brother Hawkfrost are pushed towards being just as ambitious as their father was. Though Brambleclaw does manage to stop himself, Hawkfrost cannot, and does end up like Tigerstar. | |

Averted in Prince Roger series, albeit in a convoluted way. Roger resembles his unknown-to-him father, whom everyone else knows is a condemned and unrepentant traitor, which makes him The Unfavourite. He responds by becoming a Royal Brat because it ticks his mother off, not knowing it makes him resemble his father even more, and makes his mother think he is emulating his father on purpose. After Roger learns what was really going on... well, the first time he meets his father he decides to behead him for torturing, raping, and mind-raping his mother—would have done it, if not for a timely intervention of Nimashet Despreaux. | |

Gorion in Baldur's Gate must have had this worry, though it's never quite stated outright. Being the Lawful Good foster father of the protagonist, whose real father was Bhaal, a God of Evil, he can't have wanted them to follow in his footsteps in any sense, even though the prophecies made it likely they'd either do that or just die. | |

In Merlin, one of the titular hero's main tasks is to try and ensure that Prince Arthur doesn't grow up into a ruthless, tyrannical bigot like his father Uther. While he does succeed in curbing some of Arthur's more prominent Royal Brat tendencies, most of his attempts to show Arthur that magic can be a force for good end up spectacularly backfiring and making Arthur distrust magic more, even if he doesn't go around persecuting sorcerers as brutally as Uther did. | |
