Lori didn't want to learn the piano and thought her mom was wasting money on lessons. Lori didn't like practicing and saw no future purpose for learning the piano since she wasn't going to grow up to be a pianist. What is Lori expressing?

Answer:

low expectations

Step-by-step explanation:

Low expectation is a term used to describe situations where we do not believe that we will succeed in something, or that some activity we do will not have a positive outcome just because we do not like or are not successful at it. An example of this can be seen in the question above where Lori sees no need to practice piano since she believes there is no likelihood of growing up as a pianist. Besides, she doesn't like to practice the instrument.
