I am not a parent but I believe that family values are passed down and even when youth rebels those values will resurface at least in part as we mature

Nana, parents matter, but peers matter also and to a larger degree than most of us think. During the time that I raised my son, I often came across books that seemed to cross my way at that moment in time on purpose. When I was asking myself that very question you are now, I found a book by Judith Rich Harris that made clear a child is as much yours as it is a child of its time and peers and the environment a child grows up in have a big influence as well, next to that of the parents/ family it is raised in. I have a link for you to the book I am referring to:

Also: child abuse, and in particular, that which is inflicted upon the child on purpose, causes lasting scars that affect both the way the victim perceives itself and the way it raises its own children.

Children are influenced by a lot of different areas, peers, parents, media, school, etc. I think their core values usually start at home, so of course parents ideas and training have a major part in their development.

You may grow sick of my puns, but there is no point at which a ram is born from a sheep. My point being that a kid evolved from random evolution is likely to be born of the strongest of a surviving species. Could a naturalist see the beauty of a black sheep being saved by the blood of a lamb?
Some may see mans awareness of the heavens as innate yet in the social realm myths have infuenced most more than stars

According to the roman mythology, the founders of Rome were Romulus and Remus. The twin-brothers were the supposed sons of the god Mars and the priestess Rhea Silvia

On Children
Kahlil Gibran

"Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.

You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,
which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
You may strive to be like them,
but seek not to make them like you.
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.

You are the bows from which your children
as living arrows are sent forth.
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite,
and He bends you with His might
that His arrows may go swift and far.
Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness;
For even as He loves the arrow that flies,
so He loves also the bow that is stable."

I think one of the biggest things parents pass on to their children is literacy. By the age of three, it's pretty easy to project a kid's overall success with reading later in life. After three, kids start being involved in school, where SOME literacy problem areas can be addressed, but a huge portion of a kid's reading success comes straight from their exposure to it in the home before the age of three.

My parents gave me reading. They read to me from the time I was born, before I could understand, and let me be surrounded by books. Before I could read, I still piled up books in my crib along with blankets and stuffed animals, and slept on the pile of it (If you could see my bed now, not much has changed). My parents exposed me to sounds and expressions that formed the core for my reading skills later in life... a straight shot of phonemic awareness and love of storytelling.

It's such a simple thing, but I don't know what my life would be without my parents and their "gift of literacy." Now I swim in words as if they were water - and I owe that all to my parents and their willingness to talk to me, enrich my life with an extended vocabulary, and let me cling to books as object of comfort, rather than instruments of torture.

You are so right, That reminds me of something I saw on TV and told my daughter about and I was really amazed, "your baby can read" program. Her daughter is two and reading words really well. A good program and a great gift from your parents Sibyllene.

"It is kind of like what britts grandpa always said if you're gonna screw up, hurry up and get it over with while you're young and it's easier to bounce back". I still remember the morals of the stories in the mother goose section of the childcraft world book encyclopedias my father bought for us. Sometimes when I practice what I preach it helps me bounce back from bad choices I have made in my life. Many creatures learn to survive their environments from innate knowledge and are sometimes taught by example. Humans are mental, emotional, and many times spiritual beings. We need more parental warmth and guidance than some reptiles
