Exactly.
We see
some in-born traits as "positive" and others as "negative" (or not noteworthy, anyway), but that is via comparison to cultural norms.
Girls, for example, are rarely praised for demonstrating natural "leadership" skills in the way that boys are. Girls are praised for "nurturing" behaviors that strangers would
overlook out of kindness 
in boys.
Now, can those behaviors be learned? Of course.
But if I should feel "proud" that my child was born HG+, then should other parents feel "shame" that their kids were not??
I don't think so. Maybe we should just love them and accept them the way they come to us, instead.
