Today my daughter took part in a music competition and I thought she totally rocked! Only about a handful of the kids there, including herself, actually knew the lyrics of their songs from beginning to end. Well, one boy in particular...I think is in 3rd grade...he sang a solo on Supercali. and was doing well. He forgot some words, but kept going. Afterwards his dad put him down and made him cry for not knowing the words. An older lady went to the boy & told him he did great, but his dad wouldn't stop. I told the dad we can not expect perfection from our children, but he doesn't seem to get it.
So how would you react if your child forgot the words, either out of fear or lack of preparation?
