I'm not sure if I'm affected by anyone's habits at all, especially my family's, but I do have many of the personality traits that my mom and dad have. My dad doesn't get annoyed/angry unless an unnecessary amount of work is being done (inefficiency) or if he's accused of something he didn't do. I'm the same way. I get <I>extremely</I> annoyed if someone is doing work that doesn't need to be done, or especially if <B>I</B> have to do work that is inefficient. Call it lazy, but it's part of my personality, even described in the psychology test (I'm an INTJ). I also get extremely defensive if I'm accused of something I didn't do, almost to the point of exploding.

My mom wants to make everyone happy no matter what. I even hate it when people I don't like are sad or in a bad mood. When I see anyone else in a bad mood or unhappy, all I want to do is make them happy or take their sadness away. It leads to me thinking about some pretty ridiculous plots on how to make people happy. I don't know..it's almost like a part of me gets permanently saddened whenever I see someone I know that is sad. I'd call both of these genetic traits rather than environmental traits, however.
