I'm not sure what you're getting on about. Using the idea of 'average set' to indicate normal behavior is quite fair in my opinion since Antisocial Personality Disorder only affects about 1% of the population. Further still, there is much nature/nurture debate as to the cause in the affected 1%.
What about ADHD, autism, conduct disorder, and several other developmental disorders that are not due to parenting faults?
The debate is still ongoing among developmentalists as to how much parenting plays a role in how their children turn out compared to genetics.
By the way, the nature/nurture debate has pretty mch been settled these days. It's no longer a vs. thing, rather it's often a combination of both. The current debate among experts is more on the degree of influence from each.
