Wunderkind
A
wunderkind is an English term that is used to identify the children prodigies.
The children prodigies are people who, from very young,
show a great development in some area. They show a surprising skill for the
language, the mathematics, the investigation, the music, the languages or other
areas.
There are
many opinions about these children. There're people who think that it’s
necessary to take advantage of their intelligence but others think that they
lose his childhood and the things that a small child should do, since they
isolate, they not play with other children and they are treated like special
children. All these factors can cause psychological problems.
I’m going
to tell the history of a wunderkind who, personally, it has impressed me very
much.

this boy operated to a girl who had burned her hand seriously and she couldn’t
move her. Her family didn’t have economic resources and they

medicine. The operation was a success.

What is your opinion about the wunderkind? I think than the children need to be children, if a child have a special ability must develop but continue being a child.

ResponderEliminarExactly. Being a children is the most important thing in the world. A special ability must be worked and that's all, no more.
