Blog Prompt 3


        Some believe that parents with “Good Genes” produce better children. These children are said to perform better academically than others. The rest don’t. How true is this?
        People with “good genes” tend to have more money, as they are intellectually more capable than the rest. This money is spent on giving their children tuition after tuition, teaching and enhancing the child’s learning from a young age, sending him for courses like “I Can Read!” and to child care centres where he can learn his math, alphabets etc. Therefore, these children are assumed to do better academically as they have an advantage over those who don’t start their learning from a young age.
        Children without parents who have “good genes” can also do well, as long as they have determination and perseverance. These children can study hard and yearn to do well academically and socially. Likewise, children with “good genes” may not want to study and would not do well. Therefore, parents with “good genes” not necessarily produce better children.
