With the languages German and English, one uses sometimes the term wunderkind ( wunder , miracle and kind , child) like synonym of child prodigy, although its use is disadvised in the scientific literature. Wunderkind is also used more generally for adults who reach success and the fame at the beginning of their career, as for Steven Spielberg and Steve Jobs.
The expression Child prodigy should not be confused with the phrase Prodigal son , or Prodigal sons , resulting from a Christian parabola and describing a child who disappointed his parents.
