DD9 has been playing violin for 2 years now - she goes in and out of loving it and hating it. Her teacher says that he never knows what he is going to get when she goes to the lesson - a brilliant attitude or a really reluctant one. I have had that many arguments with her about it, I think I am ready to throw in the towel and then I see her playing in the little group that she is in and she is in her element. I am swinging between knowing that 9 year olds can't see beyond the end of their own noses and we should just ride it out for now, and having enough of her dragging her heels almost every, but not all the times that I ask her to practise.
