Music Hater

Not sure what the deal is, but Parker is freaked out by my guitar.
It's a fairly non-imposing Taylor 314CE, but the kid doesn't know what to make of the thing. Every time I bust it out to play a few jams, the boy just stares at the guitar intently before clinging to his mom and crying.
Perhaps I'm a horrible musician. Actually, I know I am, but that's beside the point. No matter how badly I'm playing, it's not like I'm rocking death metal! It's open chords! It's G, C, and D - arguably the happiest chords you can play on a guitar! Doesn't matter. Dude's not having it.
I hope that this isn't a foreshadowing of the boy's musical future. My hope is that he'd have a deep appreciation of music, and that he'd want to learn to play guitar. I mean, if the kid doesn't want to learn; no biggie. But if he fears for his life every time he's near a guitar... Man, that's gonna be hard to deal with when he's seventeen, you know?

Do your kids have an interest in music? How old were they when they started expressing interest?

Maybe you should run "appreciation tests" on other topics you enjoy. You may discover your big plans for Parker may not be shared by Parker himself ;)
