Thanks to everyone that responded to my last post.
It was great to hear everyone’s opinion.
It sounds like most everyone has a similar opinion which is very similar to mine.
Luke came with his own personality from day one, much to my surprise actually.
I always thought their personality comes out more as the years go by.
I am sure that will still happen, but I see a lot of personality now.
Basically, I believe that it is nature that usually influences them at first but we can use our nurturing to guide them using their personality traits in the right direction.
It is hard sometimes to do, but I think this is where nurture can really take over.
I want to see Luke’s spunky, independent, outgoing, dramatic personality used for good in his life and that’s where my nurturing has to come into play.
Most importantly, I am trying to embrace all of Luke’s personality traits because that is who he is and without his natural characteristics he just wouldn’t be Luke.
Perfectly said. :)
ReplyDeleteMan wouldnt life be so boring if we really did have to shape their personality? Thats the best part of having children is getting to know them and learning to love who they are even if some days they are pains in the butt LOL.
