YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Robert Plomin from King’s College suggests that parents are burdened by the misconception that their input, rather than DNA, makes a meaningful difference in their child’s outcome. UT Austin’s Paige Harden replies that other systemic forces besides DNA—politics, healthcare, economics, racism and injustice—shape a person’s life. An excerpt from the debate "Parenting Is Overrated."
