Behavior is mostly about choice

Children are known as the blessings of God for family. Every child comes to a family with a lot of happiness, and parents always try their best to give all the facilities and comforts to their children. And from one point of view, it is understandable for parents to have such thoughts. Parents are the well-wishers of their children, and they want their children to be good people in life. Unfortunately, everything in this world does not happen according to how parents want. There are variables. For various reasons, their children acquire some bad habits, which can make them into bad people. What is the reason behind it?

Parents are also humans, and they are not perfect. They also have limitations, and they also have some bad habits too. Some of them get angry easily, some have the habit of talking too much, and some have other bad habits, and at the same time, some can have some good habits like being patient, calm, and polite and so many more. Children receive the genes of their parents, and naturally, they acquire many habits automatically without any effort. That's the power of genes. That's the reason it says that the children inherit the behaviors from their parents genetically. It is true, but it is just a possibility because of the chances of expressing the character's unexpressed genes in the parents. There are fair chances for their children to express source gene collections, which may not be noticed in the parents character. Okay, I am not going to give a lecture on genetics here 😅.

Again, there is a fair chance children inherited similar character from their parents. But does it mean parents are responsible for the behavior of their children? From one perspective, it can be true because children can inherit the same behavior from parents because of genes, and secondly, how parents nurse their children or guide their children makes a significant impact on the behavior of children. I have seen many children turn out good because their parents are good and they guided their children well.

But that's not the situation in every case. There are also many cases where the children turned out almost the opposite of their parents or became different from their parents when it comes to behavior. The natural habits of a child can be changed with time and the situation a child faces. If children go through a lot of struggle from an early age, they automatically know how to stick to the ground in difficult situations. Acquired knowledge can be a reason for a child to change their character or behavior. After a certain period, a child can decide for himself what kind of behavior suits him best and act accordingly.

Let me share an example of it, and I am the best example of it. I need to come to trust my parents' love and to trust others, and I also used to trust others till a certain age, and I think I inherited the habit from them, but when I started to develop my heart, I realized that trusting others should be a calculative approach. That's my own mindset, and right now, I don't trust others unless it's necessary because I don't find any reason to trust anyone. I believe in a calculative approach.

When it comes to behavior, I think the mindset of a child mostly decides what kind of behavior a person displays. It's all about the choice of the children, although the genes and the situation have an impact on it.
