Exactly dar, Mom had a similar situation herself. At eight her piano teacher told her dad (a composer) that she was naturally gifted or some such at the piano. At which point her dad decided he'd better take over the teaching. With predictable results.

To this day I hear variations on the "I coulda been a contender..." theme

I'll keep an ear on things to be sure history doesn't repeat itself.
