Growing pains of a child prodigy

BBC Article Here

It's quite an interesting article, mentioning some of the older known child prodigies, as well as a few of the recent ones -- the young boy swimmer, the younger boy marathon runner, and so forth. It'd be good to know your genes are good, but apparently such transitional phases as they grow older are tough.

Is a child prodigy something to wish for?

If you continue to click on the links on the side of the page of the BBC article, you can see about a four year old girl artist, whose paintings actually look quite interesting and involved. BBC said she just giggled when they wanted to talk to her. I suppose it adds to the mystery of it all.
