Exactly.
Success through hard work. Wonderful.
But in reality it's not like that. Children at a young age are put in baseball, ballet, swimming etc., and, with no extra work being put in, (which is fine at a young age), are 'celebrated' for if they have natural ability, and their achievements bragged about. - I'm even talking 3 year olds here - I'm pretty sure they're not working any more than the early talker.
I'm not saying parents should 'brag' about either group, just that the one form is accepted - and even encouraged, whilst the other isn't.
