Reports indicate that they might pull her from life support, very soon. Now that I am a parent, stories of losing a child, is always hard for me to hear/watch/read.
Although I do not care for Bobby Brown, I do wish him strength during this hard time.

Well, there is a lot of research that shows that the parent doesn't have the most influence in a persons life, it is much more dependent on your peers like your friends. This makes logical sense also, after all these are the people that you are going to live and work with, and not your parents.

Not sure how accurate that is. There is plenty of data to support the fact that the home is the best place to learn values.
Of course, with few parents at home with kids now then I'm sure you're right, peers have more influence. But it should not be that way.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Well, we had a series here in Norway, and if you bother to watch a Norwegian series with english subs here you go:
Hjernevask[^]
Its interesting though: Do children copy your dialect (assuming that you speak different then other people in your area) or the other kids dialect?

It is hard to reach final conclusions on complex systems.

Both. Copying behaviour is the first way of learning. Even if none of the kids curse - if you curse like a sailor, the kid will do the same.
When older, origins of behaviour are even harder to point. As your actions are determined by fenotype and genotype, it'd simply follow that even advertisments have influence on your dialect.

Well, you can watch the program but the essence is that it is based on twin studies and adopted kids etc. It's not the case that it is solely based on gens compared to nurture, but without genes somethings are impossible. However, no one is saying that you cant ruin your kids with poor parenting.

I bookmarked it; limited bandwidth here.
With genotypes being equal, only the fenotype would matter. That would include interaction with everyone. Including the grandparents old dog. Or a church. Did I mention advertising yet? More interaction would logically mean more influence on each future action.
Equally, "values" come from all kinds of places; they're a product of what you experienced. Children sociallize earlier today than they used to. It may hold true that the apple didn't fall far from the tree, and that most values in the past came from a limited circle and have been reinforced for a longer period.

That's easy enough to answer for my personal case.
I'm having a pretty distinct dialect from a different part of the country than what we live in.
My wife has a foreign accent.
Our kids speak like the other kids.

Värmland, bordering to Norway.
Have been asked more than once by people from Stockholm if I'm Norwegian. Something a Norwegian certainly wouldn't understand

Not as strange as it might seem; In 1250-1350 Jämtland, Härjedalen and Värmland belonged to Norway. After the Kalmar union it was split up a little different.

I am king of general statements, so I think I have a right to say that your comment, well, is a general statement.
I think that statement can be true, if the individual doesn't make a specific effort to NOT be like their parents. Also, being like your parents isn't always a bad deal. Some parents are down right cool.

I thought it was a negative but you only get one set of parents be happy you didn't get the wrong ones.

This one will be too easy for you chaps. Anyway, here you go:
Crazy love with endless quote, why? (8)
Sorry, don't think I can possibly embed the definition in the clue. Hope this one doesn't lead to multiple solutions. 
Good luck!
Your time will come, if you let it be right.

Crazy love - velo
endless quote - quo
why - y
veloquoy. I understand how it was complicated to find a definition.

You are avoiding to set one up for Monday, aren't you?

So the one winning sets the next one up ? Sorry, must have been living under a rock again.
Then I am glad (for you guys) that I did not find it : If I am even twice better at setting them up than finding the answer, it'd still be awful.

Yep - that's why is WSO CCC: Winner Stays On Cryptic Crossword Clue.
Whoever solves it posts the next weekday clue.

Sorry, but that's incorrect. I actually don't believe you didn't get it in your first reply. I thought you deliberately replied with incorrect solution.

 Actually, I am really that bad at solving CCCs. Believe me.

Well then you will be surprised when you realize the solution and how close you were.
