A “Youth Prodigy” refers to a young person, typically under the age of 18, who demonstrates exceptional talent, skill, or ability in a specific area, such as music, mathematics, art, sports, or writing. This extraordinary capability is often recognized at an early age, and prodigies may perform or create at levels comparable to much older and more experienced individuals.
