I have always wished I had talent to sing a solo or group.
My youngest daughter I have been told by those who know, has perfect pitch.
She loves to sing.

Thank you! I agree, and I have always had the same wish, alas, it was not to be!

So I have just had to make do with being an admirer of music.
If your daughter is really interested in music, I would strongly encourage it if I were you. I am a big believer in cultivating talents and interests in children, I think the more productive things they have to occupy their time, the less opportunity they have to get into trouble.
I'm not talking about forcing them to be constantly be involved with whatever it is, but if it something they enjoy, giving them plenty of chances to be involved with it.
I'm sure it doesn't always work out that way, but for me, my daughter was involved with music in one way or the other from early childhood, and it was something that she loved; it turned out to be a really positive thing in her life, and she managed to stay out of trouble.
Most schools have some kind of music program (if it hasn't been cut from their budget), and there are also community childrens choirs and workshops, all different kinds of things you can do, and of course, anything that your church has going on for kids musically.
OK, sorry, this is one of those subjects I can go on and on about!
