Answer #1

1st keep up with your school work; I don’t know and everything that is importat to you and your family. like maybe going to church? or maybe its just simple things like keeping your room clean. just dont give them any silly reason 4 saying no.

Answer #2

Just tell them. There is nothing wrong with being an actress. There is no shame in that profession. They shouldn’t be too upset. And no, I would not sneak out and do it. Have them go with you, with their support you will go further than just trying to sneak in and find the right person. You will look way more professional with their help.

Answer #3

can you add me before you come famous

Answer #4

say MUM, DAD,,, I want to be an Actress!!

Seriously though, have them come see you audition or maybe see you in a play & tell them that this is something you desire so much & you wish they could support you with your choice!

Answer #5

Let them know what you want to do. If it requires their financial support, tell them that many parents pay for their children to go to college only for them to fail or drop out. Tell them there is a risk involved in everything. You will be told no. By several people. But tell them that you are mature enough to take criticism and take a rejection, and that it will only build your character and let you know what needs to be done so you don’t get the rejection next time.
