Every single child born into this world comes with a set of talents. Some are gifted with more and some with less. Nevertheless, they are all blessed with one talent or the other. There is never an individual born into the world with no talent whatsoever. Every single person has some talent. So the next step is to identify the talent that the child inherently possesses so that it can be brought out, nurtured, cultivated, developed and used for the good of society as well as the individual. Every talent that every individual possesses is for the common good, and not for the individuals themselves to keep and enjoy. The talent needs to be used for the good of everyone, and in the process, the possessor of the talent would also be blessed.
Therefore, parents and elders in close association with the child have the responsibility of identifying the gifts and talent of the child and bring it out into the open. While with some children, it is extremely easy to identify what particular talent they are gifted with, with other children, it may not be readily apparent. But parents need to strive hard to recognize the talents that their child possesses so that they can develop them even further.
There are various ways to spot a child’s talent. The first task is to expose them to as many fields as possible. When they are babies, we may not have a clue to what they are talented in. So we need to expose them to music, to pictures, to toys of various kinds and to a variety of different stimuli. This exposure will tremendously stimulate their minds during the early stages of mental development. It is crucial that the all the senses of the child are stimulated so that the child has uniform development in all spheres.
Once the seeds are sown, the parents can be ready for the harvest. Sooner or later, the child will start displaying specific attributes based on their unique skills. If they musically inclined, they will be singing and playing instruments. If they are artistically inclined, they might be with their pencils and brushes, drawing or painting things they had seen. At first, these might be very rudimentary. But the parents need to recognize that they are still in their early stages of development. Given time and nurturing, these talents will one day take the child to great heights. It is to that end that every parent needs to invest their time and effort in their child’s gifts.
