[quote=Anonymous]Having been in an "honors" traveling orchestra as a child, she may be more insightful that you are giving her credit for. One, it is a big time commitment. Her saying "I don't want to work that hard" may mean "I don't want to work that MUCH." She may be conscious of the drain it will have on her free time to read or pursue other interests. Second, I enjoyed playing in my school orchestra and on my own. But being in a competitive orchestra added a certain layer of pressure to what I previously doing for enjoyment. Maybe she senses that - she seems very perceptive. Third, once the novelty wore off, it became something I did to please my parents. GL[/quote]
