[quote=Anonymous]Nature. Because you just can't make anyone do anything they don't want to. Quit or try or practice and get better or stop a bad habit or learn a new skill - nothing. It's all free will and thus it's all nature. You can continue to offer of course but the choice belongs to each individual. Which is exactly why a kid growing up in a dysfunctional family if they understand it's dysfunctional will be able to land on their feet. Which is why someone who grows up privileged and spoiled may still turn out wonderful. It's why someone from a great healthy supportive family may commit suicide. A kid given all the tools to succeed cannot. It comes down to nature - the good thing is that choice can kick in at any time and age. So that you really don't know if it's because of "nature" or "nurture" but really, it's still innate. It's always nature. Don't be fooled - everyone chooses for themselves at every age what they want to do.[/quote]
