Everyone has heard of Einstein's great name, he is the pioneer of modern physics, and his IQ is even more amazing. People often say that dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the sons of mice will punch holes, and in layman's terms, it is believed that this kind of thing as IQ will be inherited, and smart people will inevitably be smart.
But this iron law seems to have been broken in Einstein's body, and his children grew up to be abnormal. He is obviously so smart, why do most of the children he gives birth to have great defects in IQ, why is this?
Einstein had three children, all of whom were born to his first wife, Mileva. The two of them came together during their college days, had a very good relationship, and even lived together very quickly.
Let's talk about the first child of the two, this child is named Liesel, and they are the children of the two in college. But at the time, both of them were still in school, and suddenly having children was definitely something that disrupted their established life and study plans.
After careful consideration, Mileva still insisted on giving birth to this child, after all, in her opinion, this is both the crystallization of their love and a living life. But what is very heartbreaking is that the child is not healthy, was born with severe mental illness, and despite their efforts, they were unable to save his life.
Then there is the second child, of course, he is the eldest, and Einstein's eldest son, Hans Einstein, is still relatively lucky, and his body and IQ are sound after birth. At the same time, he also inherited his father's super high IQ, even if he did not insult the name of Einstein's son, he has always been more hardworking and excellent, and eventually became a professor.
Edward, the youngest son of the lovely Instein, was not as lucky as his brother Hans. Although his IQ was not low when he was born, he has been growing up healthily. But at the age of nineteen, he was diagnosed with schizophrenia and lived an abnormal life for the rest of the years. It is reasonable to say that two of the three children are not normal, how should it not be so, the parents are high IQ people, why should the child born be like this?
I believe everyone has heard that some mental illnesses are inherited, and it just so happens that Mileva's family is a family with a history of mental illness. Her mother and sister were both mentally ill, and although she was lucky to be healthy and normal, her children were not so lucky, and both inherited family psychosis.
Speaking of this Edward, he was separated from his father shortly after birth. A child, from childhood without the love and companionship of his father, will have some psychological problems. When Edward was ten years old, he had the courage to write to his father, but he did not get a reply from his father Einstein. Coupled with his mother's temper is not very good, so Edward's psychology has also been affected, although he became a pianist at a young age, but he still can't hide his personality and psychological defects.
I have to say that Edward is indeed pitiful, and when he was treated in the psychiatric hospital, Einstein did not give him father's love, did not care for and greet him. However, no one is perfect, and Einstein made great contributions to physics and can be regarded as a successful career. But as a father and a husband, he was also a failure.
And it is because he is too withdrawn, so Mileva will choose to leave him, and because of this, his temperament has changed greatly, resulting in Edward's lack of father's love since childhood and the lack of normal maternal love. However, Edward is a musical genius, many artists have suffered from depression, whether it is because of his creation that he is depressed, we have no way of knowing, can only say that genius and madman are only one step away.
And Einstein's three children, one because of genetics can not be normal, the other is not purely because of genetics, more is the influence of external factors. Speaking of three children, there are two without good lives, which must have become a major regret for Einstein.
