[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 351796, member: 4040"] I gave her some ideas on where to look for info, like places to work, agencies to contact, etc., and helped her word things. She did all the research and the actual writing. My function is to help her put the thoughts down coherently. She knows what she wants to say, but it gets lost between brain and keyboard. Always has. With the "what would you do?" scenarios, she's totally lost. She can't imagine herself in a situation she's never been in, so I would talk her through them, then help her get it onto the page. It wasn't too bad; she found out which states had the highest and lowest pay for swimsuit models, looked at modeling agencies, talked about portfolios and the importance of being physically fit. One page is filled. The next page is on her probable career, child care, which she's already researched, so it's just a matter of getting her words onto paper. She gets overwhelmed so easily, and it's easier to help her word her paper than listen to her rage around the house because she doesn't know where to start or what to do next. She knows that she has to ask for the help, and not fight me or be snippy, because I'll stop helping right there. [/QUOTE]
