[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^18:25: It's a big mistake to discount environment. [/quote] 18:25 here: That's precisely what I wrote. Those who claim parents (="nurture") are the deciding force, they discount the environment. And if you claim environment is key, then school is where that environment "happens". Today's children of all socioeconomic backgrounds spend more waking hours in school or other organized activities than out on the street making friends. If environment counts ==> school counts. The problem is that schools do not own up to that responsibility, especially not if those who may need a more profound exposure to social realities and connections are lectured to or bent over homework sheets from dawn to dusk instead of building skills and practicing critical judgement.[/quote]
