Question: Acting at this age is it possible!?
HI, I am 25 yr old Female and mother of 1!. Good looking girl, height 5’ 4”!. I always had dream to become an actor, but never took it seriously!. But now these thoughts are not going out of my mind, and I still think that I can do it, I should do it!.
So my question is in this scenario should I go for it!? Or I should let it go because I am losing my age and I am mother!? Will I have opportunities!? Will I be a successful!?

being a mother will set you back a little, only because you must be ready to leave at a days notice to go to auditions and call backs and such!. other than that, it shouldn't matter too much!.
No age is too old to start acting! many people do not start till they are older even!
If you are passionate about it, then go for it!
You may or may not have a lot of opportunities!. It all depends on talent and your look!. if Agents like you, when you reach that point, then they will submit you many times!. If they don't, well, this business (yes, its a business) is like that!.
You must be willing to sacrifice a lot of time and money into this career!.!.!. lessons, community theater, then when you build up your resume, head shots, gas to get to casting calls and performances, printing your head shots (with resume on the back of it!)

Not anyone can be an actor, but you defintely sound like you could be!. Like you said if it has always been your dream, and you are really determined than go for it! There are actors of all ages, remeber this industry has work for all ages!. And the only problem i see with you being a mother is going to auditions, castings, or classes, and wondering how yo will always get someone to take care of your child!. If this is what you really want to do, then go for it!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

No such thing as too old or young!. There are parts for all ages and ranges of ability!. As for success, that's for you to define!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

You should be careful and not spend too much time on acting because you already have a child but you can still try and work hard on it!.
