Title: Genetics and anger
Post by: Cap on September 24, 2008, 05:53:41 PM
Are there studies that link genes to anger?  I know it runs into the whole nature vs nurture thing but if someone was an angry kid from a young age (say 5 yrs old).  Just curious.

Dunno, but there is a strong correlation between expression of anger and lack of self control...

Tell me about it.

I'm just wondering if it is normal for some young boys to be naturally aggressive and have a temper, even at a really young age before a lot of conditioning takes place.
