Should we autonomically assume that becuase a child is displaying a skill that taken many hours of practise that it’s done so under force?
Maybe these kids really love the music.
As far as “religious cults” THAT I find disturbing PERIOD…imagine forcing the belief of the tooth fairy well into adulthood…or that the world is flat. I find it unbelieveable that such superstition can thrive in these modern times. Yet, there are millions of religious followers, people who are affraid to walk under ladders or break mirrows, they throw salt over their shoulders, are affraid to say outloud what ‘could happen’ because they believe by ‘saying it’ it WILL happen…many other examples of losing touch with reality. What was the latest? Oh, it was some kid had a near death experience and he talked with jesus, and his parents, (father just happends to be a pastor) are actually believe themselves and are reinforcing this dellusional fantasy…pure insanity…madness!
I deliberately walk under ladders these days. Deliberately stir with a knife, etc, etc.
In the music store I hang out at there’s been an upsurge in very young kids learning guitar. I asked the teacher about it, and he said in each case, the kid asked their parents if they could learn guitar.
When I see these little kids carrying their guitars back to the practice rooms for a lesson, I often tell them, “Boy, if I had started learning guitar when I was your age, I might actually be good by now!”
Heres some clips i stumbled across a little while back. There’s like 20 or 30 clips of this kid on Youtube. good laugh to check out, although i gotta say s–hit whats he gonna be like by 25???
