Hot Pink Acoustic Guitar
It may come as a shock to you if your soon-to-be teenaged daughter suddenly wants a hot pink acoustic guitar. Usually it is the boys who want a guitar and not your little darling who was dressing up as a princess not so long ago. You might think about waiting to see if your daughters interest fades or buy a cheaper guitar in case she becomes bored with guitar playing and quits. But before you do this, you really need to consider a few things.
You’ve probably seen the TV show, Hannah Montana, which depicts a young girl who has attained status as a rock star. This is probably just one of the many reasons that it has become trendy for young women today to become musicians. There are many pluses and minuses when it comes to young girls yearning to become famous. But, as parents you can take what otherwise might just be a passing phase and use that hot pink acoustic guitar and turn it into a important and enduring passion.
Playing guitar can be very beneficial for young women to have a creative outlet that can process their feelings. Unlike years before, the pressures and expectations nowadays on young people, especially young girls are greater. This may be social pressures, body image pressures, likewise early sexual and academic pressures too. The trend with girls, quite often with scary results, is to internalize pain or stress. With their privacy in mind, you can guide them into enjoying creative outlets such as playing a guitar and encouraging them into these types of releasing all forms of their emotions - whether they be bad, good or somewhere in between.
Even in the solitude of her own space she can release these emotions in a creative way and express herself. Her guitar songs are hers alone, and she does not have to share them with anyone. However, parents can gain insight into what their daughter is going through that you may not normally hear about if they encourage her to perform, even if it is just for the family after dinner.
