[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't watch talent shows, but from observing many child and youth recitals and concerts in our area, I know that it takes guts, intelligence and a TON of practice to deliver what many would think is a merely "good" performance. They're kids, it doesn't necessarily come easily for them in terms of hand-eye coordination, memorization, judgement calls, etc, not as easily as for adults.

I would be prepared to bet that these kids ARE talented, OP. You're just blase about it because you haven't sweated like them and don't know what it's like.[/quote]

Oh geez. Get over yourself. Somewhere in my parents basement is a home video of me singing at 3 years old. I sound absolutely terrible but my parents thought it was the cutest thing ever. Point is, a lot of kids are talented. A lot aren't, they are just doing things that parents find cute... doesn't mean they need to go on a national stage. [/quote]

Out of curiosity did your voice improve when you got older? My 3 year old's singing is awful -- good sense of rhythm, zero sense of pitch -- and I am afraid he's inherited the terrible tone-deafness that runs on DH's side of the family. Not the end of the world, of course, but my family is very musical and I'd hoped to share that with him. (He does love music so there is that.)[/quote]
