Hello!

I translated some sentences into English but I am not sure if they are correct. Would you please help me re-write them in a more natural way in English?

1. When we come into the world, we aren’t able to choose the environment we will live in, nor do the genes we have. In that case, have we still got free will? / are we free to make our own choices in this life?

2. All children, without an exception, deserve to live in a nice and snug place.

3. How can you manage to lead a life by being especially extremely this melancholic, with a heavy heart.
