[quote=Anonymous]I say to continue barring significant financial strain. Playing an instrument can be a fun hobby. It doesn't always need to be a huge deal where practice, rapid development, etc. are emphasized. Thinking back to my childhood, I played violin for five years. I did not practice often, but played two days per week then five days per week for 50 minutes in the school orchestra. It was enough for me to develop into a comfortable player. I didn't have private lessons. I learned the fundamentals of music, and more than anything just enjoyed playing. It wasn't my primary activity, and I eventually didn't take orchestra classes so I could take an extra foreign language instead. Still, I had a great time and am glad I had the opportunity. You don't mention the instrument, but is there a way she could do group lessons instead? Or maybe a teacher that teaches more pop-ish music rather than a classical repertoire. [/quote]
