Read this excerpt from Book I of Rousseau’s Confessions and answer the question. Before I abandon myself to the fatality of my destiny, let me contemplate for a moment the prospect that awaited me had I fallen into the hands of a better master. Nothing could have been more agreeable to my disposition, or more likely to confer happiness, than the peaceful condition of a good artificer, in so respectable a line as engravers are considered at Geneva…Instead of this--what a picture am I about to draw!--Alas! why should I anticipate the miseries I have endured? The reader will have but too much of the melancholy subject.

This ending to Book I implies that Rousseau believes .

the master he studied under is to blame for all of Rousseau’s misfortune
all of the events of his youth have shaped his destiny as an adult
all people can overcome difficult childhood events
his destiny was predetermined and unable to be changed by events in his life
