Lonliness is half inherited and half environmental! Make sure you are not lonely or your kids will be

50% genetic ? I could not believe it. I thought it is much more environmental than genetic. So I checked the original research. There indeed was a caveat.

 

In the original research the loneliness was scored as mother’s ratings to what their 7, 10 and 12 years children complain.

So use your discretion to interpret and extrapolate it to the loneliness of adult Sajhaites, folks !
