Question: I really want to go into acting, but my family doesn't support me!.!?
I've been wanting to go into acting, and auditioning for parts for as long as i could remember!. I defenitely have a huge passino for this, but my parents just think that i can't do it!. They think of me as not being able to really do anything , and they dont take me seriously!. I know there isn't a way to convince them to support me!. & there is an audition for this part i want, but i need to send in a resume and headshots!. The problem is that i have no acting experience, and i dont know how i will get any since my parents don't support me and won't sign me up for classes!. I also can't get headshots !.!. for the same reason!. They think its a waste of money and i'm not gonna get anywhere with this!. But i want this so bad!. I've cried so many tmies becuase i want to do this so bad but my parents just won't support me!. What can i do!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

If you want it you've GOT to prove it!. To heck with what your parents say this is YOUR life!. It's YOUR career!. YOUR choices!. I'm sure they had a dream whin they weer young but THEY didn't do anything about!. Learn from there mistakes!. It's not there choice to make!. Let them laugh and scoff when you get turned down from your first audition!. It happens to EVERY single actor out there!. But as long as you know you have what it take you can do it!.

Good Luck

Show them what you got!!!

If you are under the age of 18!. Then you need your parent to support you!. Now just participate in school plays, and invite your parents to see you perform!. That might change their minds!. Good Luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com
