1. “Think in many ways it wasn't about teaching me something different, but just really driving home the forces of lessons that you can hear about in the abstract, but the felt reality of them isn't really real until you have kids. And that lesson is that children are different from one another. And even children within the same family are different from one another. So often when we think about genetics, we're thinking about similarity between parents and children. And that's true, but thinking about genetics just in terms of similarity allides the fact that there is so much variation within families. My children are different from one another in their personality, in their temperament, in their speech and language development, in how they do in school. I think most parents see those differences play out in their lives. As a geneticist, I just had tools I think ready to understand those differences and thinking about how they fit with.”
