Pressure for Summer Theatre Class
Ok, well I give out alot advice my self, but I am unable to think of anything. My story is this: My friend is real big in acting. She does charity plays for small children. She is now pressuring me into going to a summer acting class but I can't go. I have to be free to watch my younger siblings. I want to go, but i also have my responsibility. I've talked to my mom and she says its completely up to me, but I don't know which to choose. If I decide to say no to the class how should I tell her with out hurting her feelings?
Thanks & Sorry if its a little long!

Want to answer more questions in the Hobbies category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Theater?
If you are realling into acting then do it! I've done these things and they are such agreat oppotunities. But don't do it only because your friend is doing it. Do it it becaus you want to and have a passion for the arts. Otherwise you will be wasting a lot of people time. And if your freind is also really serious about acting, she'll go with or without you!
If you need help with anything else..feel free to come to me anytime!
I hope I helped you!

Explain to her acting is her thing, and say you support her in it. It's the same as your sporty friend trying to get you to run track in the summer, when you don't enjoy running, or aren't a very active person. Doing things with her is great, but you still need to have different interests and hobbies.

If you don't want to go, don't. She'll understand if it's not your thing. Support her by going to her shows and helping her rehearse. If you do want to go, you should. You'll have a lot of fun. If you like the atmosphere but can't act, you can do what I did and sign up to do tech for shows. I love seeing shows but can't act. So now I'm employed by our school to do lighting for our auditorium and fine arts center. I get to see my theatre friends too.

well if your mom says its up to you, why not give it a shot? it could be a lot of fun and you get a break from babysitting. if you decide to not go, then just tell her you have to watch the sibs. she should understand. <3

You seem like SUCH a nice person! I know I would definantly pick the theatre class but YOU are actually giving this some real thought! Your like my idol.. ANYWAYZ If you feel you have a responsibility, you should try to keep it like that! But maybe you could talk to your mom and ask her if its REALLY okey for you to take these classes with your friend! And if you can't, just wsay you cant because you have responsibility to watching your younger siblings! I'm pretty sure your friends feelings wont be hurt, she'll understand!

Since your mom has let you off the hook with watching your siblings it sounds to me like you really don't want to go which is completely cool.
Just tell her the truth, it's not your idea of fun. Make sure she knows you still really like her and wanna hang out with her in the summer just not at a class. She might be a little hurt but if make time for her and hang out with her doing things you both enjoy, you'll both have way more fun in the end.
