[quote=Anonymous]I would drop the lessons and only when he initiates it than you can "instruct" him. My philosophy is kids that are really interested/love something will stick with it and when they don't than they will drop it. Even if they stop it temporarily. Example, my DH played piano and took lessons starting around age 8, joined a choir and loved both. At age 13, he quit because he did not like his piano teacher. But, because his love of music was strong he went back to taking piano lessons. Now he can play almost anything on the piano and enjoys sitting down and entertaining us all. His two sisters, also given flute and violin lessons ( that's what they wanted) eventually quit because that is not where their interest was. No amount of bribing or begging would get them to keep going. When your son is interested than help him or get him another teacher. It is difficult to teach your own children![/quote]
