By that I mean that he is either unwilling or unable to lead his students (for sake of clarity I will refer to the various interlocutors in the dialogues as being “students” of Socrates‚ in so much as that is the way in which Plato seems to have framed the discussions) toward any specific lesson or definition. Socrates himself makes a point to admit his

    Are we humans the product of nature or nurture? Nature is how much of your personality is genetic‚ what you were born with. Nurture is how much of your personality was caused because of your environment‚ how you were raised. So does nature or nurture contribute more to someone’s personality and behaviour? Or do they both play a role in shaping our lives? I hope to come to a conclusion with this debate in the end of my thesis. With nurturing‚ people tend to observe others actions and behaviour
