Unfortulately you’re wrong. And we. have a vast corpus of twin studies to prove it.

Why do people (women in particular) have so much trouble believing it? Well, there are a lot of reasons.

But mostly there is a sort of obvious evolutionary law necessary for all animal survival at play: your competence or incompetence needs to matter so little that the child will mature, survive and reproduce regardless of your competency.

So, you can screw up your kids, you can make life harder or easier. But over the course of one’s life – GENES ALWAYS EXPRESS. Why? A child is sharing your prefrontal cortex so to speak. When mature and away from you the child isn’t. Genes always express. Always.

Just is what it is.
