[quote=Anonymous]In my family, music is a non-negotiable. I'd hazard a guess that most kids don't like lessons, and they certainly don't like practicing. But I would also guess that most adults that know how to play an instrument don't regret it (and probably are grateful that their parents didn't let them quit). 15 minutes a day at that age is long! For my kids, I think it's better to set an expectation of: play the song/do the exercise X# of times (rather than setting an alarm). None of that takes away from their other dreams/interest.[/quote]
