Even so rate of 53 per cent contrasted with 6 is unusually high given that a high chance of inheritance in people diagnosed with BPD doesn't mean a high rate of people actually inheriting BPD through genetic factors. Having a 55% rate of inheritance for instances of BPD doesn't mean that parents with BPD will pass it to their children in 55% of cases. I don't think we can put this down to this down to genetic factors being passed to children.
