Kids request idiosyncratic to imitate and travel applicable behavior.
A genitor cannot archer a kid to halt wasting clip connected integer media if they are besides spending a batch of clip online.
Unless the genitor stops and engages, the kid volition not follow. I ever counsel this to parents...
I archer them that kids volition not bash 'what you SAY', kids volition bash 'what you DO'!
I person ne'er shared this anyplace earlier .... but I was reminded of it erstwhile I work @anika987 's station that her girl is not showing involvement successful carnatic music...
(Nothing to detract @anika987 's effort, committedness oregon troubles, I americium conscionable sharing my story)
My lad stopped his carnatic classes erstwhile helium was 12 (mainly due to the fact that each the different boys stopped and determination were lone girls successful his elder batch), but I continued singing the songs helium had already learnt ...
I would constitute a opus connected a whiteboard/blackboard on with the notation, raga, composer etc - I would sing, signifier aloud whenever helium was astatine location portion cooking oregon portion hanging astir - nary shruti box, nary sitting cross-legged, conscionable ft tapping alternatively of ceremonial talams
... and erstwhile possible, precocious evenings oregon adjacent aboriginal mornings (Yes, successful the unreserved to schoolhouse greeting regular !), I would beryllium crosslegged, with the shruti container and ceremonial talam and signifier for fractional an hr portion helium would get ready!
Notice that helium played nary portion present - helium was conscionable an perceiver !
He would sometimes ignore, sometimes helium would sing along, sometimes helium would close maine ...
I would grounds the opus successful my dependable and inquire him for feedback... We would besides grounds immoderate movie songs unneurotic - helium would sing the antheral part, I would bash the pistillate portion - and my DH would admit it... My ma and my DH's sister are musically trained, truthful they some would besides springiness maine feedback, inquire maine to sing erstwhile they visited... helium would besides articulation successful the discussions.....
I would grounds my songs for immoderate pooja oregon day etc for assorted household ocassions and inquire him for proposal to take a opus oregon transportation oregon which signaling to nonstop connected household whatsapp groups....
Also, I would sojourn our euphony mami for guru poornima oregon day etc and would instrumentality him along... (I spell adjacent now, and helium comes on if helium is home)
Notice that helium inactive played nary portion here - conscionable an perceiver + sometimes commenter, sometimes antheral vocalist !
Consistently done for 2 years, astatine 14, erstwhile his dependable changed, helium told maine that helium is having occupation choosing the transportation for circumstantial songs... I took him on to sermon with our euphony mami what shruti helium should usage for which opus etc and aboriginal helium consulted her connected his own.... helium would telephone oregon substance her whenever helium had occupation with the transportation of a song
I continued my signifier adjacent done his dependable alteration and aft that ...
During covid, helium was successful higher classes and got engaged with studies, and I stopped mundane singing successful the closed spaces arsenic DH was besides moving from home...... but immoderate weekends, we would sing immoderate aged movie songs unneurotic and helium would articulation successful enthusiastically
I ne'er knew wherever helium sang, erstwhile helium practised ... but helium developed his ain preferences of euphony - whistling, euphony apps etc...
Now helium is 20, helium has a repertoire of carnatic kritis for immoderate pooja if idiosyncratic asks him to sing... helium participates successful fusion euphony benignant of programs astatine college, successful antakshari oregon bhajan during household functions, helium has a acceptable of songs prepared according to the assemblage and sings them without hesitation.... But each that is incidental ....
I didnt bash each this purposely, but My DH noticed erstwhile lad was astir 16-17 - that euphony became 'our' happening !
We some commencement singing unneurotic impromptu (his transportation is wholly antithetic from excavation now, it is intolerable to get it aligned unless the opus is suitable...) and adjacent present we negociate to person a bully hr of philharmonic amusive without immoderate books/references/phone portion cooking oregon walking oregon immoderate cleaning enactment unneurotic oregon adjacent conscionable sitting around...
My DH looks connected indulgently and tells maine - possibly years aboriginal erstwhile helium is acold distant from us, and helium hears a strain of an aged song, helium volition person immoderate bully feelings and nostalgia...
Hence BG 3.21 proved successful existent life
Keep smiling
