I was thinking culture more as a societal thing than environment. Yeah, we're saying the same thing (and my one class in sociology 13 yrs ago would NEVER compare to what you've been through), but in my mind the hierarchy is a bit different.

Sociology according to merith:

Environment can be the home/parental/care-giver setting for the child and provide the core base with reemphasis on their beliefs whether they be policial, racial, religious or even what brand of laundry soap works best. (I buy Tide because my mama did...and I do like it better than most other laundry soaps!)

Culture is all things interacting within the child's environment. These things can reenforce the parental/home/care-giver beliefs or counteract. And depending on the child's own make-up, culture can work against their environment/core beliefs.

So, in a nutshell, to me culture is part of a child's environment, but does not equal the same thing.

I really do like sociology discussions. I'm just not educated in it...more thought a lot about it!
