Question

why was Einstein's private life insecure.
class 9 a truly beautiful mind

Answer 1

Einstein loathed authority, and, he was very insecure that he himself had become the/a central authority of theoretical physics. He wrote his son about the irony of spending decades being anti-authoritarian only to end up being an authority himself.

Answer 2

He was the 20th century's greatest scientist, his name synonymous with genius. But while Albert Einstein's theories are known and lauded the world over, insights into his private life are patchy and largely negative. He has been variously portrayed as a bad father, cruel to his wives and an adulterer. He was open about his love affairs to his wife, lost much of his prize money in bad investments and was a much more devoted father than previously thought.
