Question
If someone’s spouse’s brother has schizophrenia, what is the risk of their children inheriting the disease? How can the hereditary nature of the disease be assessed, and how can one determine if it’s a familial inheritance?
Answer
The genetic component of schizophrenia varies and is related to individual psychological stress, mindset, and environmental factors. Even with cases in the family, there is no need to worry excessively about genetic issues. Educating and promoting social activities, physical exercise for the children, and maintaining a good mental state can help reduce the risk of mental illness. I hope these suggestions will help your child grow up healthily and wish you a pleasant mood.
