Danish supermodel Helena Christensen claims her 7 year old son is a chess prodigy! What do you think?

She doesn't claim it, those who select america's national team claim it. Besides, nothing exceptional here, prodigies aren't born only from university teachers...

There are lots of talented 7-year-olds out there. I'd be curious to see his rating.

ok ok ok , I read that article and 3rd place in some random tournament does not signify a "prodigy"  Mingus the supermodels son may be very good at chess, but NOT a prodigy.  Child Prodigy should only be give to players such as Bobby Fischer, Josh Waitskin, and Magnus Carlsen

I think the terms "child prodigy" and "super model" are overused.
