Kat, I am similar in not pushing my son to practice his piano or ukulele when he is at my house. I only make the suggestion. I have no say with my daughter in regards to violin practice as the violin stays over at X's and the XW supervises (like a dictator) when D7 practices. The violin lessons utilize the Suzuki method which seems pretty good, but with some criticism of producing robotic students.
My son seems to really like experimenting with music and I think he could develop some composition skills.
We are so fortunate to have an awesome and experienced piano instructor along with the grade school music teacher who gives S8 ukulele lessons on the side.
Rob - that is the positive mental attitude to have about the Huskies! Hopefully the coach does not tell them to just try and beat the spread in the locker room. In a few years, maybe Joe Montana's son can turn things around.
As for the Duck tailback who sucker punched the Boise State player after the game was over - if I was the coach of the Ducks, I would immediately say that this guy will never wear a Duck uniform again.
