Not a whole lot, actually. I think by 25 most of the "core" of me was developed. The things after 24/25 came as a result of the experiences I had. That can't be taught. For example, I could tell you 1,000,000 things on how to be a father and you could totally buy into it. None of that is a substitute for learning how to deal with a brooding 8yo prodigy though. It might help, but it isn't a substitute for how that specific kid reacts to anything.
