Environment matters in one's life. An environment can change a virgin girl to a street prostitute, an innocent boy to a young drunkard. A wayward environment will definitely produce a wayward child. An abusive environment will equally produce an abusive child too. The environment can influence a person either positively or negatively.
I once lived near the River side and I witnessed loads of things. The people there lived a different life entirely. Girls got pregnant and stopped school before they reached eighteen years while the boys dropped out of school to take hard drugs and smoke cigarettes. The way of life there influenced kids to a point that some children acted drama about how their mothers and fathers had intercourse and how a baby is born. The environment limited children stopping them from being great. There were also those who choosed not to give themselves to the environment. The made a decision to stay away from it. They were unique and greater than those who made the environment live through them. You alone can decide what you become, if you give yourself to it and you are willing to change your life either positively or negatively, you determine what you become. That same environment had people who went to school, graduated and had good jobs. You know, people are actually different. Some may cope, some may not and get easily influenced by it. Influence your environment positively, never allow it influence you negatively.
Environment could also mean an abusive home. An abusive home is not conducive for a child. A child can't really be great when they family lacks love, peace, care and support for the child. A child can't grow well and healthy where there is no emotional ties between him/her and the parents.
