A child looks different to both parents because children usually look like a "combination" of both their parents. Each parent gives their child their genes. So a child wouldn't look exactly like one parent.

Answer:

Each parent has a set of genes, and a combination of the genes from the mom and the dad could come together to make the child look totally different.
