The term "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree" agrees with assessment that kids mimic their parents.
But I certainly would claim "always", but I would say that if parents are absent, it's less likely they will copy their parents.
Perhaps that is the key difference? My friends spend time with their kids, even if it isn't "quality time". Maybe neglectful parents can't don't pass on good traits as easily?
