Say that one man had a completely traumatic life as an infant - abused, beaten, circumcised, mutilated, and worse. Scientists have said that infant trauma can permanently alter the structure of the brain, and make people pathological/mentally ill in some cases.

Now, if this were to happen, could such pathology be passed on to the son? Or no matter what is your sperm/DNA that you jizz out going to be the same, no matter what happens to your brain or anything?

Any answers much appreciated.
