Well, depending on which side of the nature v. nurture debate you are on, all kids are born a clean slate and their behavior is largely dependent on their upbringing. It used to be that it took the whole UD to raise a child but with increased individualism people now no longer accept guidance from others and tell them to f-off. I wonder if that is taking things in the right direction... It is not like everybody is a good parent now, is it? Some of you could use a little help.
