[quote=Anonymous]No, it's not all genes (virtually nothing complex is, FFS). I also don't think it's a "trick." You have to work constantly at scaffolding your kids into appropriate levels of independence, help them develop solid emotion regulation, give them opportunities to practice these things, and teach them how to fail, etc. Have high expectations of them but also support them. Don't do their work for them, and don't give in when they protest doing theirs.[/quote]
