    I have to admit that although he's a smashing lad I'm a bit disappointed. He's a wonderful musician, studied jazz at Boston, won a scholarship to America's top jazz college in New York, the first time I heard him playing standards really well he was 11. Music can be a precarious way to make a living so I don't blame him one bit. I just hope he's also playing stuff he likes.

    Very jealous of any musician- such a talent, love listening to my son play the guitar. I had to learn cello at school and hated it -it kind of put me off learning any other instrument which I now regret

    As Chet Atkins said, If you're very lucky in life someone will put a guitar in your hands when you're young. I did caddying and paper rounds to buy my first guitar for £5 when I was 14, and it's great for open mikes. I always enjoyed watching my son draw, by the time he was 7 he was better than me.

    Hope they don't ruin it, but I'm not optimistic.

    Not sure Fingers Mouse will be allowed anymore - the nanny state seems to be tightening up on all forms of pornography
