Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
NUMBER ONE: Did you EVER hear of Spell Check!? It's very hard to read something so poorly written/ typed!. This makes me think you should concentrate on academics and pass on the cheerleading!. Even if you wanted to continue cheering at an advanced level (like college) you still have to be accepted and I am just not seeing that here!.
NUMBER TWO: If, in fact, your mom is in Med!. school, you may be eligible for some help!. Try www!.modestneeds!.org - they love stories like yours!. Your mom may be the one who may need to apply!.

You didn't mention your age or what year in school you are in and that may be a bigger hurdle!.You wrote your mom wants you to be on the team so why wouldn't she want to help!? Once you are on a team you could probably carpool with someone from your town so that would become a none issue (hopefully)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

okay so if your mom says she doesnt have the money you cant convince her to let you join, its not that she wont let you its that she can't!. try helping her out by raising some money yourself!. get a job, babysit, have a car wash!. ask your mom if she has enough money to match what you earn!.

Srry bout ur dad!!!! I think you could have a garage sale and raise money for something! You could always just keep practacing and maybe you could try a gymnastics collage because cheerleading are alot alike! Hope this helps ya!Www@QuestionHome@Com

In this situation I believe it's not about convincing!. I didn't hear you bring up anything about your father so I'm guessing you're in a single parent home!. I think your mom does want you to succeed in your cheer leading as you said " my mom has wanted me to be on a competative squad since the end of last years school year!.!." But she's currently a med student!? Education cost time and money I believe this is one of those things where the only thing holding you down is money I don't think its about convincing here!. Perhaps you can try to earn some money somehow and carpool with your fellow cheerleaders!?

Just noticed what the hell am i doing in the Dance Section!?I just looked at the questions and was like what the hell am I the only male on here then I was like ooh Dancing!.!.!. lolWww@QuestionHome@Com
