I hear it. Start slow and make sure to fully press on the frets. Bad habits stick
My wife bought a "Baby Taylor" back when we lived in DC about 15 years ago and played it twice and never touched it again. We brought it with us and it stayed in storage for all these years when my daughter found it last year and asked to play it. We agreed to take lessons together and she quit so now it's just me (and someone is going to learn to play this freaking thing!). Problem is that the strings are a bit closer together so finger placement is tough.
That, and I don't have big hands to begin with so contorting my fingers to hit the right spots can be difficult. I find that my thumb is a really good indicator of when I start to drift...
