There's an old saw about "as the twig is bent, so grows the tree". And that's true...to a point. All the bending in the world won't turn that tree into a pepperoni pizza. OTOH, if I don't prune and bend the darn thing, it grows over my roof and turns into a raggedy old termite highway.

So, having beaten that metaphor to death, I will take credit for contributing to some of my children's success, but also have to acknowledge that I had amazing material to work with.

And as for percentage amounts...depends on what we're talking about, and what day.
