There are many symptoms to Bipolar disorder. Signs in children can include mood swings, aggressive behavior, excitablity, grandiosity, risk-taking behavior, depression and lethargy, and hyperactivity.
Bipolar disorder is hereditary, but it is very common for it to skip generations. If a child doesn't actually have it, mimicking parents who do will not make them bipolar. However, as children mimic behavior; they may exhibit the symptoms of bipolar disorder.

Yes, bipolar disorder can have a genetic component, meaning a mother can pass on a predisposition to the condition to her child. While having a parent with bipolar disorder increases the risk, it does not guarantee that the child will develop the disorder. Environmental factors and individual life experiences also play significant roles in its onset. Overall, the interplay of genetics and environment is complex in the development of bipolar disorder.
Without proper psychological help a person with bipolar disorder can cause heartache and it would be a good idea to tell the parents and wait to get married while their fiance gets help and take the relationship slow and easy.
