Every now and then on the Internet or on television, news about children, not like everyone else, appears. Having hardly got out of the cradle, they begin to amaze others with their extraordinary talents. At the age of 4 they read books fluently in different languages, and at 6 they play as if making a scientific discovery, to which great gray-haired minds have not reached for many hundreds of years. At 11, they enter institutes, receive Nobel prizes and awards. The whole world speaks of them, they are geeks, children with unique features.
Amazing - nearby
Humanity is constantly in search of the unknown. We are looking for extraterrestrial intelligence on distant planets, in the expectation that he will share with us secret secrets and help make the greatest discoveries. But how do we behave when the same, superior to the average average, mind, mind suddenly appears before us in the guise of ourselves? What do we know about riddle children? Perhaps, only that geeks are
children gifted by nature. The level of intellectual development in such babies is much higher than their peers. This allows them to develop rapidly and at a young age to make a lot of discoveries or reach certain heights. Famous child prodigies are the property of the nation. But few adults are able to admit that we not only cannot explain the phenomenon of the birth of such babies, but we don’t even know how to communicate with such wonderful children.
They are
For some reason, we often hear that geeks appear in England, China, India or any other country. Children with high IQ at a young age become professors and challenge Einstein's theory, play the violin and look for a cure for cancer, create nuclear reactors and multiply six-digit numbers in the mind. But for some reason we rarely read and learn that geeks appear on the territory of the post-Soviet space. Children with "non-childish minds" are not born with us? Not at all, just for some reason they say little about them.
Geniuses from swaddling clothes
They are not often talked about today, but according to statistics, there are gifted children in every school and almost in every class. Officially, there is an opinion that information about them is not made public only because excessive attention from the press and the masses can negatively affect the psyche of the child. So is it really or not, one can only guess. One of the factors of influence can be attributed to the fact that such children, after graduating from schools or even before this, leave to receive education in other countries. Of course, there are child prodigies in Russia, examples are known to many. Obtaining information about them is quite realistic, but it would be much better if they were given due attention in the news of the media.
Young talents
Every child prodigy manifests itself at a different stage in life. Someone begins to "act", being completely tiny, and someone in an older, school age. Each of them has their own preferences, some write poetry, while others work in a scientific laboratory. There are today child prodigies in Russia, the examples below will familiarize us with them more closely.
Nika Turbina
Perhaps one of the most famous Soviet geeks is Nika Turbina. This is a poetess girl, her first book, “Draft,” was translated into 12 languages and had a circulation of 30,000 copies. They found out about her around the world, at that time Nika was only 9 years old. She played roles in films, and after that she made the film “Nika Turbina: Flight History” about herself.
Andrey Khlopin
In his 10 years , Andrei told how “silver clouds” appeared, and this remained a mystery to scientists for many years. For his hypothesis, a boy from Krasnodar was listed in the Guinness Book of Records. Another example of the fact that children are child prodigies in Russia.
Athanasius Prokhorov
Theater artist, dancer, pianist and singer, and he is only 12 years old! Performs works of classics in 6 languages, repeatedly took first places at international competitions, performs at charity concerts. The boy was born in Moscow, but in 2007 he left for America, and today he is already gaining recognition there.
Dasha Baldenkova
She is only 18, and she is already working in a scientific and educational laboratory at the center of applied nanoelectronics. Daria is a multiple winner of contests and competitions. She won two semi-finals of the Intel ISEF World School Student Competition. It should be noted that many of the Nobel Prize winners have already come out of his finalists.
Here are just a few stories about what child prodigies do and work on. Examples, of course, can be given a variety of, many of them.
They went down in history
Few people know that many famous Russian people were geniuses from birth. Someone was able to prove himself and made history, some were forgotten after some time, while others simply remained unrecognized. Child prodigies in Russia were born from ancient times, but that's how they began to be called relatively recently. These are Pushkin and Griboedov, Lermontov and Peter I, as well as Boris Godunov and Tyutchev, Chukovsky, Gogol, Blok and many dozens of others.
The smartest person to ever live on our planet is William James Sides. His IQ reached about 300 units, while the intelligence of an ordinary person ranges from 80 to 100. He was born in 1921 in the United States, in the family of Boris Saydis, an Jewish immigrant from Ukraine. He received such an unusual name in honor of the American philosopher, who later became the godfather of the boy. William knew more than 40 languages (according to unofficial data about 200), he graduated with honors from Harvard at 16, at the age of eight he was the author of 4 books, and learned to write before he was 1 year old. He studied psychology, history and science about the evolution and development of the Universe, wrote scientific treatises that are only today recognized by science. Most interestingly, he worked as a simple accountant in a small desk and was panicky afraid that someone would find out about his "talent."
After
From all over the world there are reports that child prodigies are appearing. Examples of their lives and incredible abilities, most likely, prepare us for the fact that humanity will soon move to a radically new level of its development. What this will lead to and what our life will be like in a couple of hundred years, it remains only to fantasize.
