        I hope her parents love her more than her talents.

        Every sign that her parents are being too public IMO about this child’s capabilities.

        There’s no way I would publicise my children on the web: they can do that for themselves some time later, if they choose to ignore my advice.

        It’s wonderful that her parents are giving her an opportunity to shine. Keep on promoting her. The world wants to admire her talent.

        I read an interview that her father gave to a vietnamese newspaper, he’s a dentist and brought her to his office regularly and he has patients of different ethnic backgrounds. One day he’s surprised that his daughter can converse with his clients on their native languages. She’s enjoying studying languages without force and she wants to add German to her language skill but her dad thinks that’s enough. She was invited to perform her own composed music in a concert but her father still considers the pros and cons.
