[quote=Anonymous]I’m the PP with the 5th grader who hates practicing. As mentioned, I did offer him the opportunity to quit, but part of me wants him to continue to see if he will get to a point where he likes playing so much that he’s willing to practice. That doesn’t happen until you’re pretty good and playing more interesting pieces. He’s getting closer to that, which is why he chose to continue this year, but much slower than his older sibling did. Playing the piano brings me a lot of joy, and I want him to experience that if it’s at all possible, and I don’t want to let him quit if he’s close to a breakthrough. But maybe it will never happen, and his hatred of practicing will only interfere with any current or future enjoyment. So I waffle back and forth. [/quote]
