[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Love the child you have not the one you want. Find an activity that he enjoys.[/quote] This, OP. My mom loved music, so we had a piano in the house growing up. I enjoyed sitting down on my own and figuring things out, but hated lessons and thankfully wasn't forced to continue for too long. Did chorus in elementary because my friends did, but was a terrible singer. Tried flute in 5th/6th grade (also because my friends did), and was perfectly adequate, but music just isn't my language. Other things were my thing, and that's okay. My own kids have tried instruments. Some stuck, some didn't. They've found other activities they enjoy more, so that's where they learn to work at things to see improvement. You can't force what's not there.[/quote]
