I agree with that. I will also counter my own previous point with alternative argument. There are cases abound of kids that achieve great things then have tragic ends.
Example: The youngest kid to cross the Atlantic committed suicide. But there could be some confusion of the causality. It might be that individuals that are likely to achieve greatness are also likely to meet tragic ends due to an intrinsic characteristic rather than the act of greatness increasing the chance of disaster. Causality is often very difficult to tease out.
Also tragedy gets more press than non tragic happenings. It is not often brought up about the large number of people who do great things, then have happy lives.
I do stand by my previous post that the child's interest should be carefully considered before pushing them into the public eye. Of course, some kids are probably going to find their way into the public eye because their internal drive to do so is so great that it can not be helped.
