It is generally believed that some people are born with certains talents, for instance for sport or music, and other are not. However, it is sometimes claimed tha any child can be taught to become a good sports person or musician. Discuss both the views and gie your own opinion.

Nowadays, there is an increasing belief that any children hide some talents and that they are all wiseacres that just needed to be discovered. I completely disagree

this

idea and in

this

essay I will support my opinions with examples. There are several drawbacks for believing that.

Firstly

, as parents, we tend to force children to perform some activities that we really love.

Instead

of having their pastime to feed their creativity vein, in many cases, children are pushed to some activities more as a projection of parents that d

hasn't had

the same opportunities and wanted to reshape their children as themselves expected to be.

This

generally results in children bored and that tended to leave these activities. Another reason is that, we expect that everybody is gifted in somehow.

For instance

, children are stimulated in different ways, as practising sports, learning foreign languages or learning how to play some instruments. I strongly believe that, of course, there are talented children, but there are many others that maybe are very good in different fields, without having any gift or without succeeding in something particular.

This

is not a disaster, it's just the idea that not everything can be learnt, nor a talent. Having said that, there are,

for instance

, children born not properly with a definite talent, but with

such

a passion in something, that probably just needs to be deepened. In

this

view, some stimuli can be helpful for discovering talents and in

this

way that passion can be shaped i

something concrete. On

occasion, talents can be taught since children are already ready to learn them, but maybe are just not focused on come them out. To sum up, it cannot be claimed that everybody has a hidden talent to be d

and in many cases a lot of efforts concern more the parents' expectations than the real interest for children.

However

, sometime children are too young to already realize their talents, and parents should offer them some help to dig them out.
