Question: Am I making the right decision!?
Okay, here's the deal!.!.!.!.

I've been trying to get into the acting business for a while now!. Since 6th grade, I think!. But back then, it was the stupid, "I JUST WANNA BE FAMOUS!!!" thing!. Yeah!. But now, I'm serious about it!. I want to play my cards and see if I'm worth anything in the acting business!. I don't even care if I don't get any jobs!. I just want to try, you know!?

With the restraints of my parents, I cannot do anything!. I can't get an agent!. I can't get to auditions!.

I'm stuck!. I have decided to give up!.

Please help me out!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Dont give up!. in school go into all the acting corses you can and I KNOW you can get reconized for it! trust me!. just never give up your dream <3Www@QuestionHome@Com

I am stuck just like you!
I want to take the first major/baby step: going to an acting camp this summer!. I want to go to SOCAPA in Los Angeles, but as soon as I said L!.A!. to my mom, she immediatley said "No!." period!. just no!.
I told her to think about it, and I really want to act!. Not too famous, but to a point where SOME people will recognize me, yet SOME will pass me by and treat me normally!.
I recommend going to a camp!. Camps are fun, but I don't know your age, so!.!.!.!.
Get into every acting opportuniy that crosses your path!.
I agree with the other people who previously replied to this question!.
