if you are a rich parent and your child wants to be a singer but she cant sing

If I were a parent of that, I will let her have vocal lessons and workshops but I'll tell her her problem in a nice way.

I would, but would insist that she takes lessons. Then when the teacher tells her she cannot sing unless she works really hartd, and has to give up seeing her friends, missing out on the fun, she will give up her dream.

No, as much as I want to support his or her dream, he or she has to face the truth now- or she/he well just get hurt..like what Rebecca Black is suffering now. I am sure he/she'll find another talent- everyone has something they're good at..

Hmm... interesting question... what to do what to do...? Well... I suppose I can get her (or him) into some voice lessons to begin with. If there is improvement there, then maybe there is a chance to pursue the dream. However, if even after some training and such, there is no improvement and it seems that attempts will be futile, then best have a talk with the child and encourage her to try something else that she might be good at. The thing is, you see, if I let her pursue this, I will only be setting her up for disappointment. People will only laugh at her, or cringe whenever they hear her. Would she like that? Would that make her happy? I hope that I'm a good enough parent to raise a child to be not bratty enough not to understand this. =P

Yep I would support my child's dream. But not jut with money. I'll ask my kid to join music and dance school whether he/she likes it or not. And I feel singing is something that gets better with practice and time. So yeah

I personally think that she should take a course to singing...

Personally this is something I can never relate with. Why would some parent try and help their child get an Album cut if their child cannot really sing? What good will that do anyways? If I had a child who was interested in Singing, and $$ was no object, but knew they could not sing, I would try and encourage them to find something else that would be of help for them, or like others have said find them a voice coach who can try them out and see if their is hope. Personally why allow a child to do something to often be only let down in the end?

I'd arrange for an unfortunate and completely random throat assault to occur and then pay off a Doctor to state that to sing again would be life threatening to them..... Nah, that probably wouldn't be a very nice thing to do! I would be honest with my child about their own talent and then I'd suggest they get involved with singing in some other way. Maybe they could be come an Agent for singing superstars! I'd support them as much as I could on that front. All in all though, I think we owe it to our children to be truthful because to not be in an instance like this could embarrass them later on.

WIlliam Hung made a million form sounding totally shite, so I'd say go for it and would support my child all the way! Anyone can sound great with the right production..... Anyways, encouragement is the key and we should never stifle a child's dream. All that said, I'd also try to be realistic with my praise too. There's nothing worse than watching people dumbfounded when they're told by pro's that they can't sing; even though their families have always told them otherwise.

any good parent would be supportive of his/her child's dream. a better parent would teach the child how. i haven't heard of natural-born singers. most babies born produce a cry sound, nobody (as far as i know) has ever sang the moment they come out in this world. lol jk singing is an art, a skill, a passion and a calling. talents can be developed. and if a parent can afford it, i don't see why he/she wouldn't be supportive. but parents should teach children positive realism. that being a singer entails more than just producing an album or music video. singers sing. one must be able to sing to be a singer (at least in my book, that's my definition. lol). as a parent, i would be encouraging and supportive, my child's number one fan. but i would also be honest and give him/her positive critique. and take my child to the experts to learn. when he/she is ready, then we produce an album. but not before. and not just on a whim.

hell cap, Nah,i won't. I have to explain why and what he/she must/should do first before recording. So what if i am rich...still it's my reputation aint that costs the recording and result eh (hehehe) Ugh how i wish i am really that rich to have my kid/s album released anytime

Every parent who has a child has a dream for them! some dreams are ore realistic than others. Just because you may hve the monwy doesn't mean you can realize the dream. If you are rich and your would be singer can not sing, then it is time to give up the dream or get singing lessons to realize that dream one day.

It's a parent's job to support her child's dreams but I guess what I would do is have an honest conversation about it with my child, explain the steps she needs to take to get to that dream and just assess the whole situation. Since I'm rich, I will make her take all the lessons she wants, hire the best people who could help her out and eventually talk some sense into her.:)

nothing on this earth cannot be learned, i would give the opportunity to learn then go ahead to support her in anything she would need in this career

no. as a parent, i have the responsibility to tell the truth. i cannot allow my daughter to live in lies. i will be responsible for whatever happens next.

I will ask my child to take lessons.I will support him/her in what s/he wants.but,if the teacher her/himself tells me that my kid doesn't have any talent whatsoever,then I will tell my child to find other lessons s/he may like.if s/he still wants to still sing, then I will let her/him continue the singing lessons,but I will not produce her/him an album.

So many rich parents have brought disgrace to the world letting their tone-deaf kids turn into singers. If I was a parent by no means I would allow my tone-deaf kid to turn into a singer. I think it's good to be supportive with kids, but also you have to be realistic, and if they have no talent, to try to make them get an interest in something that can be easier for them to do.

That is what most parents would do, to give the best to their children. If I am a wealthy person, and I deeply understand that they can't sing at all, I might still spend money to make their dream come true. That's a parent's duty, I guess. Oh well, if their failure taught them a lesson, that might be worth the cost too.

In this modern days, there is no impossible if you have money. Get a private tutor for voice lesson and other performing arts. Enroll your child in many workshops related to your child's passion. There are a lot of artists who were out of tune when they sung before. But look at them now, they have developed and became great performers and singers. They have also their own concerts and albums. Secret? Constant right practice and workshops.

If I were rich, I would hire the best vocal coach in the world to train my child. LOL!
