The boy who knew too much: a child prodigy

This is the true story of scientific child prodigy, and former baby genius, Ainan Celeste Cawley, written by his father. It is the true story, too, of his gifted brothers and of all the Cawley family. I write also of child prodigy and genius in general: what it is, and how it is so often neglected in the modern world. As a society, we so often fail those we should most hope to see succeed: our gifted children and the gifted adults they become. Site Copyright: Valentine Cawley, 2006 +

How to learn about prodigy

If you are new to Scientific Child Prodigy, please visit this page: http://scientific-child-prodigy.blogspot.com/2006/10/scientific-child-prodigy-guide.html

and look around the site. It will point your way to many of the pages of Scientific Child Prodigy, and help you choose where to start learning about child prodigy, geniuses, gifted children and savants.

The site grows daily, and, in time, I will cover all topics related to prodigy, giftedness and genius in general - as well as the gifts of the Cawley family, in particular. From one example, examined closely, can be much be learned for all to come to understand their own situation.

Feel free to comment on a post when a thought comes to you. Thanks for reading.

As a child, I had many gifts...perhaps too many - and this leads to the characteristic problem many gifted children face: what to do, when there is so much you COULD do. I resolved the issue by doing each of them serially throughout my life. I had gifts in science, writing, art, music, acting and academia...and so my life has demonstrated each of these, at some time. However, in the modern world, those who specialize, and focus all their efforts on one thing, tend to win through. In the light of this I have written two books, which are being prepared for publication. I was a child in a time when being gifted was not something people spoke about: it was not a widely recognized situation - at least not in my background. Nothing special was done therefore, to help. It is my wish that all in that position, these days, receive the support that is needed, to become the best they can be. I have been an actor, a writer of two books, a government physicist, at age 17, the founding editor of an Arts magazine, at 22, and a performance artist whose work was covered by CNN (interviewer: Richard Blystone) and Reuters. However, my greatest achievement is to have fathered three sons.
