    Addiction can come from genes, but it didn't necessarily mean that it was only the genes.

      The drug had to be taken for the addiction to begin, but the addiction can begin due to genetics

    Can we just acknowledge how in frustrated denial Robert must've been? To see his own son take the path his parents took and that he just barely avoided? To know that his son will have to go through the same suffering of addiction he went through? Give him a break

    For crying out loud! It's not about being rich, or being disrespectful. Whether your rich, poor, young or old, spoilt, or not. If it happens, it happens. You could be the Best parent ever and it could still happen to your kid. It's just that some are stronger than others and that's nothing to be ashamed of either. It may well be in the genes, who am I to argue,? We ALL make mistakes. It's only in the news because his dad is famous, if he came from an ordinary family it wouldn't be on the big news. I wish he gets the help he needs just like ANY other person suffering from any kind of abuse or illness etc. 🙏

    But the son has one thing different from RDJ. RDJ had a father who give him improper drug before he was 8 years old, when he hadn't know that it was wrong. But Indio's family, especially his mother, knew how addiction could ruin a person's life from the beginning. However, he still fell into it. He didn't get the guts and resistance RDJ had.

      Kimiko Wotherspoon-Smith Addiction has never been 100% proven to be genetic. So far, an addiction gene has not been discovered. The only thing the research indicates is that multiple unrelated genes are commonly found in drug abusers, and that those genes may play a role in someone being predisposed to drug abuse.

    • @frenpilled
      @frenpilled 4 года назад +1

      Kimiko Wotherspoon-Smith The most casual factor, if you ask me, a recovering meth addict, seems to absolutely be environmental. Although those genes may predispose someone to addiction, their environmental influences will ultimately be causal.

      For one, he isn’t the sole parent and isn’t even the one Indio usually lives with. For another, addiction is literally a genetic mental illness.
      And plenty of incredible parents have kids with mental illnesses or kids who try drugs or make any other number of mistakes. Don’t blame the parent, they don’t literally control the kids every action no matter how well they raise them.

      Well for one, that’s not how that works. You cannot ‘nature over nurture’ a genetic heart condition. The same is said for a genetic brain condition (mental illness) like addiction.
      It really doesn’t matter if you ‘buy’ it or not, it’s been a well proven scientific fact for a long time now.
