Parent Clones

After 6 weeks in a cast from foot surgery and after a few weeks of being fairly hobbled, plus a break in coaching for a few days, I decided to clean the fuck out of my house.

While cleaning, I discovered not only a hairbrush containing what is obviously my mom's hair and one of my dad's wisdom teeth, which I guess they didn't dispose of as bio-waste in the 60's, as I was always fascinated by them and dismayed when I was not allowed to keep my teeth...although in retrospect, it may just be that anything coming out of me could be considered some sort of biohazard.

Anyways, it got me to thinking...what if I could somehow clone my parents and raise them as my own? Being that they raised me, my parenting would be modeled from theirs in some way, shape or form. While their environment would be different from their own childhoods, they'd be raised in the same one that I was. Would they turn out similar to their original selves, or degenerate rugby players just like any of my birth children will be?

Furthermore, would they fall in love due to genetics and spawn another me? And after breeding with their sibling, could I have them sent to some sort of correctional facility and raise my grandself? and how exponentially kick-ass would Goody/B turn out after being raised by Goody/A?
