There are certain phrases which we Americans have made a part of our daily speech. Phrases which because of their constant use have acquired an aura of truth about them. Phrases like benevolent dictator and born criminal.

Despite the public acceptance, though, the fact remains that there simply is no such thing as a born criminal. A child might be born to a pair of the most hardened criminals, and yet, if given the proper amount of affection and moral upbringing, could grow up to become anything, a doctor, a minister of the clergy, or a prototype of his parents.

Go to any maternity hospital at visiting our any day and see the flock of newborn children, see how alike they are, and how even the parents have trouble identifying their own baby from another. It is true that there are such things as young criminals, some children under the age of ten having arrest records, but there are no infant criminals nor any who are born to be.
