[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OMG. Please don’t force your 7 yr old to practice more than once per week. What is wrong with you?[/quote] I hope you're joking[/quote] Of course I’m not. Who in the right mind would force a 7 yr old to play violin every day- if they don’t want to. Is this for their benefit or yours? [/quote] My 7 yo also doesn't want to shower, bush her teeth or hair or go to school. Keep it in perspective. She picked violin as her activity, but that doesn't mean she likes to practice, just as many adults don't like to practice. As her parent I get to make sure certain tasks are done daily, including both teeth brushing and violin. If she stops wanting to play, that's different, but as long as she's taking lessons then she needs to practice most days.[/quote]
