Current event #2
So in this chapter we talked about heritability. Heritability is who your are based on your genes you inherit and the enviroment you grow up in. So my brother has a trait where he asks the same question over and over but with different wording everytime. He doesn't do it to annoy me or anyone else, he just does it. What is odd, is that my grandma is the same way. So i thought that maybe it was connected in a way to how he acts (my mother does it minorly too). I thought this was very interesting in the fact that we are talking about it today in class most likely. I don't know if its true or if its just something a psychologist thought he discovered, but i don't think its a genetic thing unless its a disease or something close to it.

That's kinda weird...and I don't know if it would be a disease but to me I would think it would have to do with heritability just because it is with more then just your family its your grandma too. But did your grandma do it when she was younger or does it have to do with her being older?
ReplyDeleteThat's well.. interesting. I agree with you about not thinking it's a heratibility thing though. Did your brother spend a lot of time with your grandma when he was growing up? Because he could have picked it up then...
