There are hints in the four-month infant who holds up his hands, studying how the fingers move for minutes at a time. There are hints in the three-dimensional drawings some of my school-age patients make. One young boy can't sit still through circle time but does back-flips like a trained gymnast. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://health.yahoo.com/experts/childhealth/2072/genius"><P>And what about the parents' role? We parents are put on earth, first and foremost, to make sure our children survive and learn right from wrong. We help them learn to take care of themselves, and to care for others as well. We can't make them into geniuses or dictate what their genius will be. But if we're lucky, we can catch glimpses of their talents poking up like the tender shoots in spring. We can give those little shoots light and air, water them gently, watch them grow.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;"> </td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/821F0F2A-16CD-483D-AACE-C7D0F9C4721C/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
