Eminent Sons Link to Fathers Age In Study Review
Statistics cited in the Unpopular Review suggest children of older fathers more likely to be eminent. If a father aged 35 to 40 is the baseline, a son born to a 25 year old father has less than one fifth the chance. The odds rise with age: 45 to 50 years yields about five times the baseline, and those over 50 about ten times.
