Our brains take in information at an alarming rate from the time we are in the womb throughout our teenage years, and all this information we absorb growing up influences who we become as adults. With emotions running unchecked, social unawareness or apathy and mental maturity not fully developed, it not hard to wonder why so many hate crimes occur in our world today. Childhood development is key to changing that culture and more specifically it starts with the parenting inside the home. A loving and nurturing mother and father are a child's best chance for a more well-rounded development and better emotional, social and mental skills as adults.
