Nurture Over Nature

I believe
In nurture
Over nature
Just because
A child's parents
Are bad people
Does not mean
The child will be
With the proper
Upbringing and nurturing
That child still has
A chance to be
Nothing like
What others would say
Is in his nature
The same is with animals
A dog of a certain breed
Known thanks to horrible
Owners that teach
The dog to be vicious
No one is born evil
And no dog is born vicious
Given a fair shot
Even one with supposedly
The worst kind of genes
Can be gentle and sweet
