Nature-Nurture Development

 Module 1.1

As my previous journal, I mentioned that I almost didn't grew up at home, together with my biological family. Although I believe in Nature-Nurture Development, I still want to insist that growing in a different environment actually affects someone's belief. One clear example is me. At home, we never discuss politics. We eat dinner together, yes but breakfast and lunch is no. Both my parents are working. My mom working in my Auntie's grocery store in town while my father who works at different farm of different people nearby. Life in the province is never that easy especially if your family and parents wants a different life from them.

In terms of cognitive development, I would say that I got being an animal lover and having a green thumb from my father while being thrifty is something from my mom. Those traits I believe is something that is part of nature. Got those genes from my parents. In terms of nurture, my environment gave me a lot. I am a keen observant and I would say that I took my curiosity from my father. I believe that I took most of cognitive development from my father than my mother. When it comes to physical attributes, I saw myself more likely my father and even people around us told me that I am a look alike of my father than my mother. I have a lot of belief that is not being told at home but instead, it was being influenced by what I saw in my surroundings that I cannot tell one by one.
