Are a person's values shaped more by experiences or by their environment? by Cassidy Lucero

Life-changing moments like helping someone in need or facing consequences for our actions directly impact our moral compass. These firsthand experiences teach us empathy and responsibility in ways that mere surroundings cannot match.

Our daily environment - family, school, and community - constantly influences our beliefs. The values we see modeled by parents and teachers become ingrained in us before we even have significant personal experiences.

I think that their values are shaped more by their experiences because they learn from that more than their environment because something I found in the anime My Hero Academia is Izuku Midoriya said that even though he didn't have a quirk (super power in a world of 80% super heroes) he decided that these criticisms from others was going to motivate him even more to be a hero.

I think that a person's experiences shape people's values, like if you were to have a horrible childhood, it might give you values that you should treat your children wrong or treat children differently.

Life-changing moments like times when we need to help someone or time we face the consequences of our actions can teach us important things about ourselves and it can also help us realise that we might be thinking or acting wrong.

I think our daily environment shapes our lives

I think Experiences primarily shape values because it makes you think and learn more from your mistakes.

I think a person's values are shaped more by experiments because they have faced it and know what it is like. Say they get hurt and their friend has never gotten hurt, the friend that got hurt know how it feels and the friend that never gets hurt doesn't know what it is like.

I think that a persons environment shapes a them first and sets the base for what their values will be. But over time peoples environment changes and so can their values.

I think that people's values are shaped more by specific experiences than their environment. People often have different values than parents, siblings, ect. Everyone has different experiences that, even in a small way, changes each persons values.

I think that our daily environment shapes values better because family and friends from school we sometimes look up to and they could be good influences us and other people.

The environment can shape values more than experiences, because we naturally adapt to the environment, and if you see a polluted area, or something harmful, you would think to yourself "Wow, that's really dirty, what can I do to change (thing)" and cause yourself to want to change something.

Life changing moments like when we confort someone in need of encourgement. It can shape us a better person and it can show our personaility.

When you experience a hardship or a tragedy in a school that could of been stopped or weaken. I could think that a school is evil and that they aren't going to help in a time of need.

it can let you change because you want to but with environment you can change but not know it or want to.

Experiences shape values because it makes you think about what's more important in life. For example you may watch a movie where a family member dies and so you spend more time with your family.

2025-10-21 17:09:08 UTC

Experiences shape values because people may see different things from different angles. If someone is went through something tough as a child, it would affect them more then someone who had an easy bring up

I think that experiences impact our values more, because these experiences directly effect our decisions.

The Person how feel and got up is stronger then the person that never fell.

I think our daily enviorment shapes our lifes because we can change very quickly when we grow older and experience new things. I experienced writing my own novels when i didnt like writing when i was younger

Life-changing experiences shape people for the better by increasing their self-awareness, and the more we experience things, it change our thoughts and self-values.
