Culturally Determined Behaviors

Famous quotes containing the words determined and/or behaviors:

“What we feel and think and are is to a great extent determined by the state of our ductless glands and viscera.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

“Numerous studies have shown that those adults who feel the most frustrated by children—and the least competent as parents—usually have one thing in common.... They don’t know what behaviors are normal and appropriate for children at different stages of development. This leads them to misinterpret their children’s natural behaviors and to have inappropriate expectations, both for their children and themselves.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
