Define: special talents- higher intellectual awareness for certain subjects (ie, early interest in puzzles, higher level of reading, etc.)

Agree:
- Advantageous to develop these talents early on by allowing the child to focus and understand the use of their talents.

Disagree:
- How can you objectively identify special talents?
- Talent is not always innate but can also be cultivated.
- Geniuses can arise without early cultivation.
Ex: Albert Einstein was teased for his speech impediment and slow manners as a child and only finished a semester of school but he is now considered a genius.
