How to discover a child's talent

"What makes a child gifted and talented may not always be a good grade in school. But a different way of looking to the world and learning."

-Chuck Grassley-

Every child is a different kind of beautiful flower, and all together make this world a beautiful garden.

A child is like a butterfly in the wind some can fly higher than others. But each one flies the way it can.

Why compare one against the other?

Each one is special.

Each one is beautiful.

I have been hearing some kind words from different people, people would say a thing like, wow that child is so so gifted, or that child is so talented. Or people will ask some questions when seeing a child's performance, they will ask who is the father to that child?, or who is the father to that child? Most times they parents would want to be known by so many people through the kind gift that their children have gotten.

The talent of a child can open so many doors of favors to the family, the talent of a child can place the family in a high ranking. But I want to say that a child talent may not always be a good grade in school, A child who is talented will only needs the support of the school, but much of the talent is not gotten through having good grades. Talent is natural skills, it is the ability and the desire that every child is born with.

Every child is talented, They were all created differently, like what I have been seeing, some parents would want their child to become exactly like them, it would be if the father is a doctor, he will also wants his child to be a doctor too, or if the mother is a nurse she will still want her child to be a nurse also.

But at times let's also know that we are not in the industrial age, we should know that the industrial age has passed, before we start making choice to our kids we should know that. Every parent should know that we are in the industrial age, we are now in the 21st century where the most humans capability has been replace by artificial intelligence.

In the connected age that we are now, most of our kids are having different talent that is also corresponding to the new age, so the parents should not expect thier child to still comes up with those olden age skills, the world have changed, and the children mentality have also changed through the way they are looking into the world.

If you can see it with me from the world scale scenario .The first revelation we had was the industrial revolution where we using industrial skills, we were using the industrial skills to operate which simply means that was what suit the revolution, and after that we had the computer revolution. Where so many people also abandoned the industrial revolution and go after the computer revolution, and they also used the computer skills to operate.

Now the world have changed and the revolution are also changing from one to another, and before we want to make a choice or to help our kids to discover their talent we should also look at the revelation that we are into, we are in the technology world today, we are in the connected revelation where everything is been function through technologies..

Today's revolution is different from the industrial revolution, so I would advice the parents if they really want to help thier kids to discover their talent they should give part to their kids, they should allow thier kids to lead the way, they have to stay back and watch thier kids, by listening to their kids ideals.

Children must be thought how to think not what to think, they have what to think already they only help and assistance they need from the parents is how to think. The children of this century are seems to be so smart, that is exactly what a friend of mine told me the other day. He said Gently did you know that the children of nowadays are so so smart! And I said yes why wouldn't they be smart?, are they not the in the smart world?. I asked him during your time didn't you hear something like smart phone? He said no, and I told him the children of this new age are so fast to grow both in knowledge and skills. They are very very fast to catch up something.

I would like to stop my article here for today. I am not done writting on the topic yet, I wouldn't want you to get bored in reading because the article will take much of your time before the conclusion. But I promise to still continue with the same topic by tomorrow for those who are interested.
