The fact is, personal and social life events, filtered through the mind, shape the brain throughout the lifetime. You cannot, scientifically, cleave biology from biography, especially when it comes to a process as psychologically layered as addiction.

Commercials full of happy-looking people "tell nothing about the products being sold. But they tell everything about the fears, fancies, and dreams of those who might buy them. What the advertiser needs to know is not what is right about the product but what is wrong about the buyer."
When a queen is removed from a jumping ant hive, for example, the worker ants "launch a vicious, fight-to-the-death campaign against one another -stinging, biting, sparring, lopping off limbs and heads"- until a few workers win and become, well, monarchical. Without any alteration in DNA structure, the physiology of a new queen changes; "she" now becomes fecund and dominant and will live longer than she would have in her previous worker incarnation.
In an ant colony, all larvae are hatched with virtually the same set of genes: the queen, the workers, the warriors are created equal. Which creature becomes what, including what biological features they manifest, depends entirely on the needs off the clan.
Developmental psychologists agree that praising a child's effortis helpful and promotes self-esteem, while valuing the achievement only programs kids to keep seeking external approval -not for who they are but for what they do, for what others demand of them. It's yet another barrier to the emergence of a healthy self.
