Nature vs Nurture

As humans, we are born with certain instincts. Even though we have natural ways of doing things, nature alone does not make us human. Nurture is key to being human. We need human contact to grow up. In class we looked at cases of feral children, kids abandoned or neglected and raised without human contact. They do not develop they way normal children do. They become severely disabled and have an extremely hard time living a normal life. It is essential that all people are raised in a nurturing environment.
