ok, so this is what I have at this point:
She has 2 private lessons a week (Russian and piano, the first she's been doing for almost 2 years, and the second since last August).
This past Wednesday and Thursday she behaved so that both teachers walked out. And both of these teachers like her. However, these are the only 2 classes where she actually has to work at her level (i.e. learn new things, which don't necessarily work out right away). Today, we were discussing this with her, and it came out that she "tricked" her teachers into giving her easier words and songs, and then "tricked" one into leaving (as we've decided to stop the piano lessons for now due to her behavior). She seemed pretty happy with the fact that she was responsible for it (or was she just saying that?)
So, I'm still faced with the dilemma of whether I should just let her be (she's not even 4.5, after all), or push her a little in these areas, as it appears that she's trying to get out of actual work, and prefers to do things that are very easy for her, and I just wouldn't want that to be a problem for her later.
I never thought I'd feel so confused about what I should do with a kid at this age
