Nature versus Nurture is an age-old debate – but a very important one! Which is the biggest influence when it comes to our children, and why does it matter?

It’s easy to see physical attributes that our children have inherited. But it’s a bit more complex for things like our child’s character.

What we as parents believe about nature vs. nurture can determine how we choose to develop our child’s resilience, self-esteem and happiness. If we follow the science, we realise that we can have a positive impact on our child’s character, regardless of what they have inherited in their genes.
