[quote=Anonymous]OP I was a kid like your daughter. I had amazing musical ability, a beautiful voice - and for some strange reason I could tap dance like freakin Ginger Rogers. I didn't have the "fire", and I didn't have an adult who pushed me. I went off to college and stopped singing and dancing and focused on a degree and a "real" job. Now I have a desk job, make good money, am fat, and look back and realize, I probably really could have done something amazing. I wish someone had pushed me. I didn't know that the gifts I had were exceptional. It's only now that I'm starting on a second musical adventure. I can still sing, can't dance anymore. My suggestion, have your daughter pick one thing that is her favorite and be disciplined about making her do it and stick with it. Try to encourage her to stick with it in college. You can lead this horse to water. Encourage her to drink. At some point it becomes up to her. [/quote]
