I am a concerned father and a single parent. I love my children immensely and would do anything to see them smile. It’s been hard at times as my kids don’t have a mother in their lives but we all care enough about each other to see anything through. My daughter Olivia suffers from depression. I believe that she has inherited this from both her mother and I. I have been in my own therapy off and on throughout the years and recently found a good competent therapist for Olivia. At a recent session that included Olivia and myself the therapist recommended that Olivia pursue a hobby as part of her treatment. I have been trying to get Olivia to do this for years but I think she is now more receptive to the idea since her therapist suggested it as well.
Olivia knows that my therapy has often been music as I have played acoustic and electric guitar in various bands and solo acts over the years. I can’t believe we never thought of this before but Olivia also seems to have inherited my interest in the guitar. She just informed me that she would like to play the guitar as a hobby like me. I am thrilled and will begin looking specifically at guitars for children. Olivia says she wants to play the kids electric guitar and I believe she may have a secret fantasy of becoming the next Hannah Montana. So, it looks like I will try to focus on electric guitars for children. Wish me luck!
