The concept of nurture or environment is riddled with nature (genetics). How people behave has a genetic component and behavior affect everything, therefore how we shape our environments also has a genetic component. None of this is 100 or 0, or black and white, it's a mix, but the very framing of this debate, nature vs. nurture, seems to often ignore this fact and paint it in a way to barricade people from ever moving beyond it. It's time to step over it. Our genetics influences everything we do, period. So now knowing this the conversation needs to move on to: how can this information be best used going forward?
