Warbling child!!

Eldest daughter likes to sing. Which is great. But for some reason (I know why, it's cause her grandmother taught her warbling was how to sing when she was younger!) She warbles every note!!
I come from a family of singers. I know how to sing!! (Might not be the best at it but who cares when it's in the car 🤣) Ive tried to teach her out of the warbling cause she does have a very good pitch but jeez the warbling!!
She keeps singing the same shite over and over as well!!
AIBU for it to be getting on my nerves?!
Flipping lock down and everyone in each other's pockets warbling away 🤨🤨

I don't generally advise people to put their children up for adoption, especially those old enough to possibly return home by themselves, but I would strongly advise it in this case! Grin

Hahaha such awesome imagery 😂 so sorry OP, I feel for you!

She's just declared that she's getting really good at whatever rap she's practicing 😩😩

Ive put my noise cancelling headphones on so I can get on with some work...

Eeek I feel your pain!

I think the golden rule is that children don't accept these things from their parents so she'll need to hear it from someone else.

If you're in a position for proper singing lessons, it might be a good start!

Or maybe there's an influencer with a critique of warbling!

Her twin sister has joined in...

Surround sound 😩

A quick call to Simon Cowell is required. Maybe they will listen to his critique.

Oh my god does she think she is Mariah Carey

However, you don't want to put her off something she enjoys. She is just having fun. Get her some professional lessons, pronto. Hopefully the teacher will tell her she sounds ridiculous.

What do you mean by warbling? Do you mean vibrato?

Proper lessons with a good teacher to help her with breath control and hitting the centre of the note.

What does warbling mean? I thought it just meant singing
