I don't think my parents could afford a violin and the lessons. 3. It wasn't available in school the way it was for our kids.

There might be a fourth: I think the sound of me screeching on the violin would have driven my mother bats**t crazy. She had issues.
LOL - I wanted to play the piano but we could not afford one so my parents chose what they thought was the next best thing ... the accordion. Boy was I bad. Then in high school I started learning the violin. Boy was I bad. After my divorce from my first husband, I bought a piano and started taking lessons. Boy was I bad.

Conclusion: Don't quit your day job!
