Children’s genotypes and their social relationships are correlated throughout their development. Heritable characteristics of children evoke strong and specific responses from their parents; frequently, these same heritable characteristics also influence the children’s adjustment. Moreover, parental heritable traits that influence their parenting are also transmitted to children and influence their children’s adjustment. Thus, genetically influenced evocative processes from children and parental- transmission mechanisms influence the covariances between measures of family relationships and child development. These findings suggest new targets for preventing adverse development: altering parental responses to heritable characteristics of children and influencing the genetically influenced ontogeny of parenting.
