The chance of the child having schizophrenia when both parents have schizophrenia is about 37%. There is no data available for other combinations of illnesses, for example if one parent has schizoaffective disorder and the other has schizophrenia.

What is the popularity of schizophrenia?
The prevalence rate for Schizophrenia is less than 1% within the general population. The prevalence rate increases the closer you are to a blood relative who suffers from the illness (twins are more likely to suffer from it than ordinary siblings or children to their parents). This suggests a genetic link.

How likely is schizophrenia hereditary?
Schizophrenia is partly genetic- one out of ten people who have at least one schizophrenic relative also have schizophrenia (compared to one out of one hundred people in general). About one out of two people whose identical twins have schizophrenia also have schizophrenia. However, schizophrenia is not completely genetic. If schizophrenia was completely genetic, everyone who had an identical twin with schizophrenia would also have schizophrenia. This is not the case. Like I said before, about 50% of people whose identical twins have schizophrenia also have schizophrenia. There are environmental as well as genetic factors to schizophrenia.
What is the probability of a baby inheriting a disease from parents?
For the case where the disease is a recessive trait (more likely), the probability is 1/2 that they will carry the diseased gene but not show it. If the disease is a dominant trait, the probability is 1/2 that they will get it and show it. Having said that, in the recessive case, if both parents are carriers, then there is a 1/4 case the child will get it from both and then show the disease. I have answered regarding genetically-transmitted diseases. Mental illness and other forms of "disease" will be different.
