[quote=Anonymous]The other tension you are facing is for her to practice the skill you want, planning ahead, she has to practice. If she sucked at piano while she practiced, you would say "she will get better with time". This is a skill. She needs to mess it up a lot AND more importantly get a ton of praise when she does it right. So, before attempting a thing - playing chase in the house - have a talk. Which rooms make the most sense? Are there any hazards to watch out for? What about people in the house to worry about? Dad is cooking - the kitchen should be off limits. Why do you think that? Great. Go have fun. She can't learn to do this skill without direct instructions. You are mad she is getting it wrong but haven't armed her with getting it right. (it also seems like a development ally strange skill. But that is for your family to decide ) if this matters to you, teach it right.[/quote]
