Math Problem Statement

Let $$p(x,y) = a_0 + a_1x + a_2y + a_3x^2 + a_4xy + a_5y^2 + a_6x^3 + a_7x^2y + a_8xy^2 + a_9y^3.$$Suppose that \begin{align*} p(0,0) &=p(1,0) = p( - 1,0) = p(0,1) = p(0, - 1)= p(1,1) = p(1, - 1) = p(2,2) = 0. \end{align*}There is a point $(r,s)$ for which $p(r,s) = 0$ for all such polynomials, where $r$ and $s$ are not integers. Find the point $(r,s).$
