Some kids are just better at language than others.
My sister's kids are 5 and 8. The girl (5) speaks extremely well in French, and can carry conversations in English, the boy (8) speaks well in French and knows the basic stuff (numbers, colors) in English.
I personally learned English watching Pokemon as a kid, then transitioned to reading English books, but didn't speak English conversationally until I started working at 20.

Not really, huge number of people of living in India can speak two or three languages. Their own state's language which they speak at home, Hindi and English which they learn in school and talking to their friends.
Are you going to say that Indians are better at languages compared with other countries or its easy to pick up languages when you are exposed to them at a young age.
Being better at language doesn't mean you have a monopoly. Some kids will learn language easier than others, but it's not impossible for kids who struggle learning to eventually learn it.

Now I speak English with a slight accent.
