I don’t mind if its a short or a long answer, if theres more than one (the better actually). I’m being tested by my boy, and often try to think of the things that make being a parent worthwhile. So – what memories of your children (that you have either raised or are currently raising) make you smile when you remember them.

How do you teach a 6 year old to smile while singing?

I need some tips please on how to teach/coach/help a six year old to smile while she is singing. Also, what to do with her heads/hands on stage. She is doing a solo in a few weeks. Thanks!

How ugly/scary are the forced fake smiles we teach our girls to plaster on?

I would tell my daughter to smile when she wants to, not has to.

I would hold up beauty pageants as what not to do.
