Replicative Model

A replicative model is when a person grows up to be just like their mother. For example, in Alcott's "Little Women" Meg is just like her mother Margret. Meg likes to sew, and does her best at running a household, though at times she has trouble. Like her mother she battles with money and adores her family. When Margret is not around, Meg is always the one to take care of the others, and guides her sisters. She fits the mold of a replicative model.
