Need correction, please! an essay on the topic: Essential Qualities: Inherited or Not?
The question of whether an individual’s essential qualities, such as leadership, grit, self-control, are inherited or not fundamentally boils down to nature versus nurture, one of the oldest debates in the history of psychology and one that still can not be fully explained by science. However, I firmly hold that one’s essential qualities originate from his genes – yet whether these qualities can be developed and then mould him depends on upbringing.
First, there is the notion that the app does not fall far from the tree. Children inherit eye color, skin color, and venerability to specific illnesses from their parents. So do these personal characters. A study, which compares twins raised independently with those reared in the same environment, has revealed that the variation, if there exists, between the twins was shown to be genetic.
Nevertheless, that essential qualities are inherited does not necessarily means the dominance of nature. This bring us to another intriguing conclusion drawn by the twin study above. Researchers found that identical twins are more similar in character when raised apart than when raised together. That's because when raised together twins have the opportunity to recognize their similarities and deliberately change their behavior so they might to be different from their siblings. Over time, this deliberate behavior could counter their genes.
Furthermore, upbringing develops potential qualities and thus shape a person. Its is common knowledge that detrimental circumstances such as miserable childhoods, bad parenting, and awful schools can make it harder for children to develop essential characters such as confidence and curiosity that may be there in their genes. That means, for example, one may contain the nature to lead, but end up bulking at even the most trivial things due to the oppression he suffered during his upbringing. In other words, even if we do inherit certain parts of undesired personalities at birth, we are not forever stuck with them. The shift of environment, or even the sheer force for of will, is sufficient to alter our lurking personalities.
To sum up, a person born with his qualities, but nurture vitalizes these qualities, which, in turn, shape that person. The seemingly everlasting debate over nature and nurture may not be very helpful. We should, in instead, rethink how can we make use of that to better benefit humanity.
