Who decides which habits children pick up from their parents? I want to know. I have seen children who follow all of the bad habits of one parent and the other all of the good habits. As children, do we have a choice? It's sad for all parties involved.
I think there's a convoluted dance of nature and nurture. I agree that it's sad. In this story, I think both parents have failed the child. I can hear the mother telling him throughout his childhood, "Your just like your father. "

Thanks. Like father, like son.
