I disagree. Friends have a lot to do with it. My brother and I grew up with the same parents in the same house, but we are polar opposites. He did/does drugs, drinks, parties, gets arrested, etc. Two years ago he went to a party and got gang beaten and now he's got a brain injury.

Me, I do none of that stuff. My parents did all they could for my brother (and still do now for his injury), but friends and environment have so much to do with it. Parents can only do so much without sheltering their child.
