Our individual socialization processes determine who and what we are.
It all depends on what we are exposed to during our lives.  I don't 
believe that there is a way to EXACTLY duplicate experiences, even for two 
People to be exposed to the same set of circumstances.  Look at the 
examples of natural disasters.  Some people flourish, while others fall 
apart.  This is despite the fact that some who flourish have no experience 
with disaster while those who do, cave in to sheer stress.

Heroism in war time is anpther example.  There are numerous examples of 
people surviving despite of, not because of, their backgrounds. You might 
want to consider this also.
