[quote=Anonymous]Just to play devils advocate, what if you decided it's up to her to practice. She can practice or not and that will impact how much she gets better. Is it really the end of the world if she likes it and learns more slowly? Aren't your goals to let her enjoy music? If they aren't, then I would stop, if they are, you can stop nagging and see what happens. I have many many parenting failures, I promise you, but I'm super proud of my piano playing son. I do not ever nag him to practice and he is not living up to his piano playing potential. However, he loves playing piano, he plays a lot (not every day, but most) and I think he is better than when he started years ago. (he never practices scales or assigned materials and is not taking lessons this summer). Good enough for me![/quote]
