Bad singing

[karmgirl]

I can't sing to save my life and therefore only sing when no one around. If I was in a relationship though I'd have to be able to sing in front of my man cus I love singing in the car and stuff. I've got such a terrible voice - do you think it would scare a man off? lol

I am a retired singing teacher and have done a great deal of stage work. However, my daughter forbids me to sing when her friends are around. At her birthday parties, she looks daggers at me if I join in with 'Happy Birthday' Consequently, I've become very self-conscious about singing and wish I could sing inconspicuously! I end up not singing at all. Your voice is such a huge part of you so don't be afraid to use it. (If you really wish you could do better, get yourself a few lessons; ANY one can sing!)

I'm too self - conscious to have singing lessons. Are most singing teachers sympathetic?
