As a father I am more than willing to support my children in any way I can. They have chosen some wonderful hobbies and I have been proud to be a part of them. My oldest daughter is a fantastic tennis player. My wife and I have enjoyed going to her matches and are glad that she will continue playing tennis in college. My middle son has been playing rugby for several years and despite some minor injuries, is one of the most enthusiastic players I have ever seen! My youngest son says he wants to play the drums. He has informed my wife and myself that he would like a kids drumset for Christmas! My wife seems to be less excited about this idea than I am, I think it’s great!
After searching online and looking at childrens drumsets in some local music stores, I am pleased at what I am seeing and I need to purchase one soon so it will arrive in time for Christmas! I have also ordered some kids drum lessons DVD’s. I am SO excited for Christmas this year!
Our son has been banging the drums night and day. I am a fairly tolerant person but even I have my limits. If I am going to put up with all the noise than he can at least learn to play in rhythm. Ever since we bought him a childrens drum set, he feels that he needs to spend most of his free time learning how to play the drums “his” way.
So I have made an executive decision. I am going to fork out the money for drum lessons. I looked online and found someone who seems very reputable and claims to specialize mostly in kids drum lessons. Now my next project will be a sound proof studio so we can all have some peace!
