| Dear Sigmund Friend, My brother plays the guitar very well, so my parents signed me up（报名） for guitar too. But I'm just not a guitar girl. What should I do？ Can't Hold |
| Dear Can't Hold, Thank you for your letter. While your parents want you to play the guitar, mine hoped I'd play baseball. You would be amazed at how much my parents love baseball. My dad was the star player on his school team, and theyfirst met in line to buy hot dogs at a baseball game! Years ago, my parents thought baseball would just be in my blood and I'd be a talented player. Before I could say "Thanks, but no thanks" they had signed me up and ordered my uniform! Don't get me wrong. My training on baseball wasn't terrible. Our coach was nice and the kids on our team were great. Even though I never became very good at baseball, I did improve by the end of that season. Then something unexpected happened one day. My grandmother took me to the community pool on the way home after the baseball practice. It turned out to be the best time I ever had. I swam happily with a boy called Ben and later we became good friends. Then we decided to join a swimming team. So I talked to my parents about it that night, and they were surprisingly understanding about my wanting to be on a swimming team. But they said I should finish out that year's baseball season first. So dear Can't Hold, here's what I think. Your parents possibly think that because your brother is into guitar, you must be into it too. But they won't know how you feel if you don't talk to them about it. Why not let them know that guitar doesn't seem like the right instrument for you, and give another instrument a try? Maybe you can give violin or piano a shot. Hope my advice is helpful. Sigmund Friend |
