Is shyness hereditary?
Answer:
Shyness or boldness may or may not be hereditary. Actually it depends upon the environment, eating habits ,family routine and parents mutual behaviour etc.As all these factors continue for generations, therefore, indirectly, heredity do play a role in deciding the character of the individual.
i think it can be. my brother was shy as a child and his son was shy right from when he was a baby.
I think it is. My mom is shy and I am shy but working on it harder than her.
Yes it is hereditary, but it can be improved with time.
No.
I don't think it is.
My mom, brother, and sister have great communication skills when talking to new people..but I on the other hand am very shy.
I don't think so. It's just passed on through influence on environmnet and family. Example, I am born to parents who are shy, since I live with them, I adopt their values and traits which mold me to be who I am that is shy, to be shy too.
no way. it's from your surroundings growing up I think
It might be a question of how a shy person has been brought up.
It might be hereditary of course as well, because it has something to do with what kind of nervous system you inherit. But there're plenty of ways of getting rid of your shyness. (At least partly).
No way
No that I know of it is usually a learn-ed personality trait, or a learned behaviour .
I find in anyone it is a very endearing quality, and not often realised by the person that has it as such,
it is only when it stops you from having a nice time out with your friends that it then becomes a problem.
The solution needs work go out and enjoy the company of your friends more and try to be more social it does work but practise by the shy person is needed
Have a really week enjoy yourself
Nope, but children can imitate easily characteristics of a shy person until they grow old with it.
I do not think that shyness is passed down I think it is an environmental thing the sooner you get exposed to people the better ( with clothes on !! ) Lol as a child and with much interaction
There is no proof whatsoever supporting the idea that abstract concepts such as shyness can be passed on by some sort of gene, unlike concrete concepts such as physical appearance.
no its not hereditary,it depends on the kind of experiences u have or go through
lol, that's a funny question.
I dont think there will be a gene that directly influences your personality. It actually depends on how you look at it.
Either the genetic way or that your family may "inherit" this shyness to you. The way you are brought up, spoken to or encouraged to be spoke about, all contributes to what you would be
if the shyness is severe and assosiated with depression and introvertedness it may have a heridetary element. but plain shyness is environmentally induced and one can get over it by making a concious attempt.
