[quote=Anonymous]What are your practice requirements? I'd be inclined to say she has to practice 15 minutes, 4 days a week at a minimum in order to continue lessons. Otherwise, she's being disrespectful to her teacher by not be at least minimally prepared for her lesson. I have no problem reminding my child to practice, but I expect there not to be a fight. If a reminder is insufficient to get her to practice, she really doesn't want to be doing it anyway. We have quit lessons and resumed them later. You can discuss that option with her teacher, to see if there's a chance there would be an opening if she quit lessons for some period of time. We found the time off actually helped. She decided she was interested in her lessons and would do the bare minimum work, and often what her teacher actually asked of her.[/quote]
