Why should they struggle to perform a【C5】______version that only their mothers could possibly love? It’s so much easier to buy a CD and hear someone do it really well! Their logic is hard to argue【C6】______--and it’s a direct result of our society’s【C7】______with competence. Pleasure is no longer the aim of our【C8】______activities; in fact no one even sees any thing pleasant【C9】______doing something less than perfectly well. This is crazy. And it’s【C10】______a terrible toll. Not only【C11】______depriving ourselves of creative satisfaction and【C12】______our children from finding joy in【C13】______they can do themselves--we’re also destroying our artists.
