[quote=Anonymous]I have a 5th grader who says she hates practicing, but I really think she hates the idea of practicing. It's hard to stop doing other things and to sit down to practice. Once she's playing, she enjoys it most of the time, though she's occasionally frustrated. She also enjoys her lessons, recitals and performances. She loves listening to music and going to concerts. I try to reflect on my own experience. I recall not wanting to sit down to study in college, but enjoying problem sets once I started working. I really think it's the same. I'm hoping with maturity she'll start to realize the difference between actually hating piano and finding it hard to find the discipline to sit down and practice when there are other fun options.[/quote]
