The age old question and hot topic debate item is the idea of the development of a person being "Nature vs Nurture." There are many scholars and experts that make the claim for either side of the argument saying it has to be one or other. I would like to pose a third alternative of it being both. I don't understand why it has to be one or the other. The following is my claim for why it can be both.
Nature: I believe personally that God created us in His own image and gave each of us certain qualities or attributes that pertain to our gender. Those gender qualities are special and unique from others, especially from the opposite gender. I believe those qualities will enrich our lives collectively and that when paired with a spouse those differences in gender qualities can create beautiful magical experiences for the family and society.
Nurture: I also believe that a parent has a strong influence on the development and success of their children. I believe the area a youngster is raised in has a big influence as well as peers that they will have. I think the child is born with certain qualities that basically gives them the clay they will work with their whole lives, and family, friends, spouses, and society help carve that clay into something wonderful.
