Heredity (nature) and environment (nurture) which one is stronger to influence human's development has been discussed for many centuries. Researchers using different ways to prove which one is more influence in our development but haven't a clear result.
Some researchers suggest that infants have their own abilities to learn something which attract them. This kind of abilities which have not been trained, it is obviously because of nature. And other fact which can prove the power of nature’s influence is the difference of gene. Different genes will lead to different personalities, two persons grow up at same education background, but have different talent which make them have different careers and different individuals, this kind of things always happened around us, because of different talents, some people more keen in music but someone else think math is more interesting. Various gifts always make them have different aims, they all caused by nature. Meanwhile, same genes always lead to similar physical appearance, even divided twins if the family which adopted them have the same habits and customs, their looks will also have few differents, though they haven’t meet each other for many years. The other things can prove why nature is so important is the children always looks like their parents very much. It’s all because of genes. Different race also due to various genes, it can lead to the different eye and skin colors which all influenced by heredity.
But the other researchers hold the various opinion, they think the humans are malleable, it’s all depends on environment which will lead people to different kinds of person. Some investigator like John B. Watson believe they can train the children since they were born, and let them become the person he wish them to be, they know nothing but to allow what you let them to do, at this time, if you mean to change a newborn baby, it may changeable because you tell them everything to let them follow your advice.The change of environment also is a fact of individual alteration,it is happened because of parents divorce or leave far away from hometown which easily make children become unsociable and eccentric. In addition to this,shortage of vitamins is also a fact to influence human’s personalities, state shows short of different vitamins will result in different character disorder, like lack of vitamin B will lead a person easily to get angry, this kind of phenomenon definitely due to the influence of nurture.[ E Weiss - Annals of Internal Medicine, 1947 - Am Coll Physicians]
So what I suggest is nature take most part of factor because it decided what people looks like, what kinds of talent they have, and part of their personalities. But because of different of environments the individual will changed as well, it will lead people become different from their should be. To sum up both of them influence the human being’s development.
