Handhold please

[Pipecleanerrevival]

I am listening to my dd practise and it’s killing me. She’s going too fast, making a ton of mistakes, ignoring rhythm and I am forcing myself to stay out of it. Will someone sit with me until it’s all over?

What's she playing? Is it an instrument that you also play? That can make it harder. Mistakes are how you learn - we all still make them. Sometimes it's harder to just encourage, but that's much better if the alternative would make her want to give up. Learning an instrument can be difficult in an age of instant gratification.

how old is she? What is she practicing?

You want a handhold for what now?

It’s ok it’s over now. I didn’t jump.
