I was at an after recital/concert meet and greet with Itzahk Perlman. I was around 8 or 9 at the time. One of the other kid's mothers asked him if he enjoyed practicing as a child. She was horrified when he answered honestly, saying that he hated it and his parents had to make him practice until well into his teens. I snickered, and my mom swatted the back of my head to keep me quiet.
