[quote=Anonymous]I have a set of friends that are the loveliest people. Both Ivy educated and classical musicians. Their home is full of books, music, lots of academic and artistic endeavors. They adopted a child at birth whose mother was an addict. That child has many, many problems- despite parents’ best efforts. Our kids played together as toddlers and preschools. The child was fascinated by cigarette butts found on the ground and would almost instinctively “smoke” them. Parents don’t smoke or drink. The child has seeked out trouble in any environment put in. As a teen now, I’m fairly certain they will be headed for a life of addiction and probably jail. Nurture cannot overcome nature [/quote]
