- holonomically 5y agoNo one in any of my classes was a prodigy. We had good teachers that cared about the students (and parents that were involved in their children's education). But I do think we should have had more musical training than just choir singing.
- tremon 5y agoShould Mozart have been kept away from musical instruments because his peers weren't at his level? In other words, should people existing define how we educate prodigies? Who gets to determine who is a prodigy and who isn't, and at what age?

- dragonwriter 5y ago> Should Mozart have been kept away from musical instruments because his peers weren't at his level? In his consumption of publicly-funded universal education? Or...something completely irrelevant?
