John has 3 daughters. As a math person, many people thought that his girls will naturally like math (just like him). But sadly, no.

Early this year, his 2nd girl who is in primary school now, is giving him problems. Don't want to listen to him, don't want to do homework, and purposely say things to spite him - "I hate math."

This went on for a couple of months, and John realise something has to change, as he felt the relationship and communication between him and his 2nd girl has broken down.

So he made a decision. To focus on building back the relationship first.

Put aside all the homework, put aside math.

And do things that her 2nd girl likes, together. Her 2nd girl likes gardening, likes cooking.

So for about 2 months, he didn't push his daughter to do math (even though he knows it's an important subject in school). But he just focus on building back the relationship first.

2 months later, her 2nd girl doesn't give him problems anymore, and also pick up math to do herself without his nagging. And their relationship improve too!

Does this sound familiar... to piano students too?

Most kids have the potential to do well in what they are interested in.

But sometimes they choose not.

Maybe they are not happy with the nagging or the pressure given to them. Or the communication between the child and parent has broken down, and the child will do opposite of what the parent says.

So if you would like results from your child, focus on building a good relationship first.
