That's nurture, not nature.
Are you saying this is nature/genetic or nurture/environment?
Sounds like a nature vs nurture argument. I think there is a lot of literature out there on this.
As usual: it isn't completely natureo or nurture -- it's both.
Isn't this the nature vs nurture debate? It seems like this could just as easily be attributed to growing up in a good/happy family. Not to say that genes have no effect, I just think the environment you are raised in has a more significant effect.
Perhaps it was a reference to nature vs. nurture, and how they can both play a part in outcomes.
They seem to be saying that nature & nurture is at play. Your comment mentions only the first bit.
Like all things, it's not a black and white split between nature vs nurture, it's both.
Obviously genetics and nurture play a massive role in a person's upbringing and largely determine what kind of person they will be. What is the issue here exactly?
Or more likely that people are different and not everything is environment.
