I am so glad to read your article. We have been doing this for a couple of years, and it is a “lonely” world. People don’t understand, and are too jealous to want to! It’s hard to treat your kid “normal” somedays also! Glad you understand!

Hi Carrie,
Thanks for the compliments. I am glad the information is useful to you. Many people do pursue an LA career from other places, and we’ve had many friends to do it that way. Yes, that is a good idea to put some posts on that topic. Getting some experience at home and then being ready and willing to travel is going to be essential. Are you interested in trying to visit for some period of time and go to auditions, or are you more interested in submitting tapes from where you are and going to an audition if called in? I am thinking you are in Seattle? The industry is much more spread out now so there are jobs in many places other than LA. –Debbie

I am just amazed at the thoughtfully detailed information you have provided. I’ve debated for years about how to best support my daughter in her acting pursuits, and this blog is tremendously helpful in answering questions on all the possibilities. Would love to see an entry on how to “test the waters” in LA while living in another state. She’s interested in that now…

does anyone know the actual laws regarding a child actor missing school for an audition or for work? If your child has a work permit do they have to excuse them or what? I can’t seem to find any information on this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

I wish my parents were as supportive as you. I’m 15 and I feel like I’m ready to start submitting to agents and going on auditions, but my parents don’t think I can handle people’s negativity. I wish they could just see how passionate and driven I am about acting because since I’m still a minor, they have to do practically everything for me.
