I do believe that genetics/nature is a big part of who we become. Either we repeat the same mistakes are parents make or we think about it enough that we change what we are. It is always about choice, we determine who we become. But what is in are genes is always there, no matter if we try to run from it. I have always feared that I would be like my father when it came to being a parent. He always had anger issues and took them out on me and my mother. With my kids I try to control my temper. And in some ways I see my father when I react then I need to step back and take control.
