Parenting

I don't see how parenting couldn't have an affect on a child. If the parent decides that beating their child is a good way to parent, the child will most likely grow up to be damaged in some way. That is not a part of genetic coding. Also, just because a child is genetically more likely to have a certain characteristic because his/her biological parents did doesn't mean the characteristic will develop. Nurture determines what features are activated.
