It is hardly sufficient to say that social heredity is the method through which humans gather all knowledge that reaches us through the five senses. It is more to the point to say how social heredity works, in as many different applications as will give you a comprehensive understanding of that law.
you are fortunate if you have learned the difference between temporary defeat and failure, more fortunate still, if you have learned the truth that the very seed of success is dormant in every defeat that you experience.
It is well known fact that a fox will prey upon all manner of fowl and small animals, with the exception of skunk. No reason need to be stated as to why Mr. Skunk enjoys immunity. A fox may tackle a skunk once, but never twice! for this reason a skunk hide, when nailed to a chicken roost, will keep all but the very young and inexperienced foxes at a safe distance.
The odor of a skunk, once experienced, is never to be forgotten. No other smell even remotely resembles it. It is nowhere recorded that any mother fox ever thought her young how to detect and keep away from the familiar smell of a skunk, but all who are informed on fox lore know that foxes and skunks never seek lodging in same cave. Just one lesson is sufficient to teach the the fox all it cares to know about skunks. Through the law of social heredity, operating via the sense of smell, one lesson serves for an entire lifetime.
A bullfrog can be caught on a fishhook by attaching a small piece of red cloth or any other small red objects to the hook and dangling it in front of the frog's nose. Mr Frog may be caught this manner provided he is hooked the first time he snaps at the bait. But if he is poorly hooked and makes a get away, or if he feels the point of the hook when he bites at the bait but is not caught, he will never make the same mistake again. Just one lesson in social heredity is enough to teach even humble frog that bits of red flannel are things to be left alone.
Is it not strange that we fear most of which never happens? We destroy our initiative by the fear of defeat when, in reality, defeat is a most useful tonic and should be accepted as such.
The term social heredity, refers to all methods through which a child is taught any idea,dogma,creed,religion or system of ethical conduct, by its parents or by those who may have the authority over it before reaching the age at which it may reason and reflect upon such teaching in its own way.
