A character has charge of a child (usually her son) and is desperate to [[PursuingParentalPerils keep this child from imitating another relative]] ([[LineageComesFromTheFather 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''. HereditarySuicide may be one cause.

** In "I Know Why the Caged Cat Sings," Jade reveals that one of the reasons she doesn't want to be involved in the upbringing of her daughter is because she fears Lian turning out like her. Adding to this, she admits that she feels she is too much like her father, the mercenary Sportsmaster, who put both his daughters through hell, training them to fight and being abusive in general.

** 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 [[spoiler: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 [[spoiler:the son of DIO]] to become a kind-hearted, if quite coldly ruthless member of the Joestar bloodline.

* ''Franchise/StarWars'' is probably the best-known example, and the [[JediTruth efforts]] to keep Luke from being like his father (who, [[ItWasHisSled as we all know]], [[FaceHeelTurn went]] [[TheDarkSide evil]]) occupy three separate characters: Owen[[note]]It's worth noting that when Uncle Owen says his famous quote at the top of this page, Luke's father is "just" a famous pilot who got killed in the war. Vader being Luke's father was a {{Retcon}} added for ''Empire''.[[/note]], Ben Kenobi, and Yoda. In ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi'', Luke realizes that he's dangerously close to invoking this trope after he cuts off Vader's cybernetic right hand and looks down at his own cybernetic right hand. This prompts him to deactivate and discard his lightsaber so that he won't be tempted any further.
