That is actually not what she says. She admits that there can be a genetic predisposition to giftedness, but she says that these differences are eclipsed by life experiences. See, for example, this article: https://www.youcubed.org/think-it-up/ideas-of-giftedness-hurt-students/

While exposure is important (and you have great ideas for it in this post), I beg to differ and say that some kids see more fun in math than others.
