[quote=Anonymous]I forced my teen to continue orchestra in freshman year because I think she was overestimating what the time commitment would involve. It turned out to be an easy extracurricular and she is excited to continue honors orchestra into her junior year. I agree with PP to ask your teen to give it a try for a year. It would be one thing if she had another long term commitment like a sport to fall back on, but this is the one hobby she has and it’s something that she can do into adulthood as a pleasure activity. I told my teen that you spend so many years learning a string instrument, orchestra is the icing on the cake where you can just sit back and enjoy playing with others without the stress of having to learn anymore - this is the part to enjoy![/quote]
