[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 284902, member: 1550"] Thanks for all the suggestions, guys! Actually, I care less about her modeling career :raspberry-tounge: than her self-confidence. What do I do? Send pictures to Penny's and Fashion Bug???? She's very photogenic and kind of exotic looking--and many kids have asked her if she modeled. But she has her own boundaries too. If they tell her to lose weight, forget it. She refuses to become anorexic over this. But I think she'd find it a hoot to model for a store and maybe it would give her some poise and confidence and a "can do" attitude. She is Learning Disability (LD) and feels she's not smart. She struggles for C's (with extra help). As of now, I realize she is only thirteen, but she has no idea what she wants to do as an adult other than be a WNBA basketball player and, between you and I, we both know it won't happen. I doubt she'll ever get into a four year school and she's a good athlete, but not scholarship good. She has expressed an interest in photography too and I'm running with that one as well. If anyone has suggestions to inject confidence into a very nice young lady who is so far making good life choices, but is very academically challenged please let me know. She is not "slow" nor does she come off as slow. However, she is almost afraid to try things. I told her to make brownies for the softball team's banquiet. We were having a potluck. I bought an easy-to -bake box. She looked at it and said, "No, I **** at cooking." Even my daughter who did drugs had confidence that she could do some things--such as hair and cooking and drawing. Actually, N. is above average in art too. Looking for a way to steer her so she has some focus. Thank you all :happy::raspberry-tounge: [/QUOTE]
