Laziness is not inherited, the behavior of the child depends on the type of discipline that he get from the parents, the habits of a child typically depend on his upbringing and the environment he grow up in. Children does not only observe the habit of their parents, they also observed and copied certain things from people around them. That is why it is very important for parents to consider the kind of environment they live in, whether the people around them will influence the children positively or negatively. It is also important for the parents to monitor their children to know the kind of companies they keep, or the kind of friends they associate with. Some parents are hard working but due to poor parenting they end up raising a lazy child. Some parents will be spoiling their children granting them all their wishes, despite knowing that the child is doing the wrong thing, they will ignore it in the name of love for their children, not knowing that, that is not the best way to train child.
