[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 325302"] That's kinda how I see it too Suz. I do see the influence of nurture. I also see that each case is unique. However, my gut, experience and readings tells me that nature is the mightier influence of the two. In the case of the movie, if the young man had a strong genetic tendency toward alcoholism or had suffered from mental illness, the influence of his adopting parents would not have been as significant. The young man portrayed in the movie thought clearly, was able to shake off adversity and sadness...was quick to regroup mentally and physically, was patient, appreciative, hardworking, goal directed and willing and able to make changes.
