[quote=Anonymous]OP, you aren't going to be able to mold their outcome base on on your efforts. I have 2 grown kids. Re: the instrument, I think I applied equal pressure on both of kids to continue piano. One quit after 2 years. One took for 9 years. Then changed to a wind instrument. That put her in Beginning Orchestra in MS. She rose 3 levels to Symphonic Orchestra by the next year (guessing due to her extensive musical/piano training). She then transitioned into varsity sports, and didn't really have time for both. Now as an adult she rarely plays the piano though she is excellent still. DC #1 mentioned who quit piano after 2 years, did nothing in music for 10+ years but now plays guitar very well, daily. [/quote]
