What's your childhood frustration?

Singing and dancing too were my childhood frustration. When I dance and sing my parents would laugh at me and I kind of thought that I was so bad. But in high school I got the courage to try out for dancing and I was so surprised that I got accepted. We won a Gold for the pop jazz dance competition and since then I believe that I could really dance. As to singing, I thought I was so bad too but I kinda wondered why a passed my music classes and a number of people had commented that I have a good voice though tone deaf. he he he! Anyways, now I sing to my hearts content with the advent of karaoke. I just love it!

hi there steney, im a singer and a voice coach too but my frustration as a child is to be a volley ball player. i really envy my friends and classmates who are great in this kind os sport.

i always wanted to be a bellet dancer..too bad i grew up in a place where theres no ballet lessons, so i wasnt able to live that dream...but i was able to practice a little though during highschool when i joined the dance troupe...at least its close to being a ballet dancer..lols!

when i was a kid i was very quiet, so people took me for granted, laughed and made fun of me. what made it worse was that i couldnt discuss about my parents cos they had a problem with each other.

I was very good in studies. I scored good marks in school & i wanted to move out of town for my further studies.My parents never allowed me to go out of the town. I had to stay there & study further.

i cant really forget my childhood frustration...grrr. want to know what is it? when i didnt qualified for the school cheerdance team. til now its my frustation coz since it happened i was discouraged to join any dance organization. it really sucks!! i know i tried my best with it. i really didnt know the reason why they want me to quit and they didnt realized that i already practicing for about 2 months. til now!! i hate to rmember it!! honestly im pretty and a good dancer too. i have the face value.i just really dont know why it happened.

I don't know if it is a frustration more than of a regret. I wish I would have pursued gymnastics more than I did. I feel that I had a lot of potential.

until now, i have not gotten over the frustration that i have not become a medical doctor. i took up a bachelors of arts degree major in english for a preparatory course. when i finished it, i did not get the support of my parents. instead, my mother insisted that i take up civil engineering. she was envious of the civil engineer friends of the family which are doing good financially. she forgot to consider that they were males and that i am a female. when i got my job, they were all confined to office work. until now, my frustration is still very much alive and kicking.

My childhood frustration is that I didn't go on with acting, singing and especially dancing. I had formal dance lessons for years, but once I reached my teens I just stopped them and I really regret that as I wasn't bad.

we are almost the same steney. I was a frustrated singer infact. My mom would join me to singing contests and I do win . of course there are losses but only a few. When I was on my teen age I joined a band. I was the only female vocalist. we had a lot of practice. Then one day a promoter contracted us to sing in Japan. So we made a lot of practice and preparation. almost day and night except when I have clesses, I always go to our studio to practice with my co-band members. When we are almost ready, I asked money from my dad to take care of my passport. But I got the shock of my life when at the last moment , he asked m not to go. he asked me one question which changed everything in my life: CHOOSE BETWEEN MY finishing my course OR SINGING. After several explanation from my dad, I was forced to choose EDUCATION. tHE BAND GOT ANOTHER FEMALE VOCALIST TO TAKE MY PLACE. It was truly heartbreaking! FROM THEN ON, I HATE TO SEE NEITHER LISTEN TO A BAND. But I never regret choosing my education. Here I am a successful professional.

same is case with me. my mother never tries to help me walk on the path of life, but i have taken up the decision taht i have to walk over it all by myself and i'll face every thing and take credit of every good or bad thing that happens to me!!
