“There's a natural tendency for children to, in some sense, inherit the cultural values of their parents. I'm not against that, that's fine, that's wonderful. What I am against is labelling. Nobody ever labels a child a cricketer because his father is a cricketer, but they do label a child a Catholic because his parents are Catholic. I think it's more or less unique. Nobody ever labels a child a socialist or a conservative or a liberal because that's what their parents are.” ThinkingChildrenValuesFatherParentNaturalWonderfulFineUniqueCatholicConservativeTendenciesLabelsSocialistCricketers Author:Richard Dawkins
