Again I have to agree with you, we come into this world with some preset bodily quirks. For instance, my mom told me that when she was carrying me that I was a quite baby, not much moving around etc. I'm still that way, I hate to exercise and I have to push myself to take up something simple like walking. Whereas my brother and sister were rough and tumble when my mother was carrying them. They participated in sports in school and they are still both very exercise oriented people.

I also know someone who's relative has a disconnect from people. This child doesn't empathize with others and is cruel to animals, the child enjoys being cruel and laughs. The child scares the parents, the siblings are not this way. There is something wrong chemically or physically brain wise I think and has nothing to do with nurture. I think it will be hard for this child to empathize with people and animals but I don't believe that it can't be done. The child will just need a lot of therapy to help them with their issue. This is where I think therapy is "nurture" and takes over :)
