ABC.net.auDo Parents Matter? In 1998 Judith Rich Harris, an independent researcher and textbook author, published The Nurture Assumption: Why Children Turn Out The Way They Do. The book provocatively argued that parents matter much less, at least when it comes to determining the behavior of their children, than is typically assumed. Instead, Harris argued that a child’s peer group is far more important. The Nurture Assumption has recently been reissued in an expanded and revised form. Mind Matters editor Jonah Lehrer chats with Harris about her critics, the evolution of her ideas and why teachers can be more important than parents.LEHRER: Freud famously blamed the problems of the child on the parents. (He was especially hard on mothers.) In The Nurture Assumption, an influential work that was published 10 years ago, you argued that parents are mostly innocent and that peers play a much more influential role.

A government operating under such a premise is a government that will soon run roughshod over individual freedom in the name of safety or caution.Second, it's all a crock.'It looks unpleasant or ghoulish to look at the cost savings as well as the cost increases,' said Vanderbilt economist Kip Viscusi this week. 'But if you're going to follow this health-cost train all the way, you have to take into account all the effects.'What Mr. Viscusi means is that, as a group, smokers and others who engage in risky behavior die much younger than their more risk-averse neighbors, potentially saving the government billions in Medicare and Social Security expenses.But such logic was nowhere in sight last week when the House approved a bill allowing the FDA to regulate tobacco products Join TogetherDUNWORTH: Flawed Tobacco Bill Will Cost Lives, Say Experts: US Set to Approve Cigarettes, Ban Healthy Alternatives The bill will place tobacco under the authority of the FDA. However, writing in the New York Times, Dr. Elizabeth M. Whelan, president of the American Council on Science and Health, worries that by persuading smokers that cigarettes are safer, they will encourage smokers to smoke more.She also points out that the bill gives the fda authority to reduce nicotine in cigarettes. As it is the smoking that does the damage and not the nicotine, and as smokers tend to draw more heavily when they smoke, this would only increase the damage done to smoker's health.'The so-called 'Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act,' concocted by one anti-tobacco group in cahoots with Altria, will actually lead to more deaths from smoking,' the doctor concludes.A further worry is that the new alternatives to smoking will be made illegal with little chance of reversing the ruling. . . .Dr Joel Nitzkin, Chair of the Tobacco Control Task Force for the American Association of Public Health Phys Join TogetherIRIN/PlusNews Examines Program In Laos Targeting MSM IRIN/PlusNews on Monday examined a peer education program in Laos directed toward 'hidden' men who have sex with men, a group that is 'difficult to identify in HIV prevention and surveillance' despite being 'probably the largest group of MSM in the country.'
