NATURE OR NURTURE

Nature- biological growth and development

Nurture- the culture and environment around us

In our everyday life we often see people discussing about what should be the best way to grow children and young ones in order to achieve a bright future.
And in order to achieve this we look the history of successful personalities of society to know how they have brought up.  What people forget is that it is not only nurturing but nature too has its contribution in overall development of an individual. Lets take an example. We all know that all of us have difference in DNA and this means that we have difference in biological aspects with each other. We also know that there is a specific  part in brain which respond to specific task. With difference in DNA, the structure of brain may vary from person to person. Now suppose someone's brain has rewarding nature to literature. It means that he will enjoy literature than any other subject. Take another example, supposed someone's brain lack sleep hormones like melatonin etc. ,whatever environment you will provide to him he always having difficulty in sleep. Suppose we are talking about a man whose brain has good rewarding respond to testosterone than what will happen, even a slightest interaction with female he may get excited,in whatever type of culture he had been brought up.
Take another example, suppose you child has lacking of some useful enzymes in digestive system but you are unaware of this and you want make your child a powerful man. What you will do is you will provide him with best nutritional diet which you have learned from the history of wrestlers but unfortunately it will not be beneficial to your child and he may not show any feature of powerful man irrespective to whatever you feed him. It can only be useful after medical examination of individual to determine to what he is fit for both physically and psychologically.
