[QUOTE="confuzzled, post: 392549, member: 8831"] thanks everyone. i'm glad i asked (because since it DOES involve a hassle for me, well, i'm might have said forget it, based on that alone!) she did the work. no real complaints today, she was pleasant about it and she didnt shed a tear. all the prep work she can do herself is ready to go, and she's set to gather her reccomendations tomorrow. i'm proud of her. it wasnt easy. the actual tryout is next monday so we'll see. she does understand its not a given that she'll be picked. i am reallly reallllllllllly working with her on that part because even she knows how good she is, and in her mind its a done deal. if its done on talent alone, she's good....but i'm worried that because the person does *know* her that, well, umm, she wont be picked if that person doesnt want to deal with difficult child 2. thats a very real possibility since its a handful being chosen, and as an adult, i'm not sure i'd want to be bothered, Know what I mean?? but today she herself is glad she went for it. so cross a leg if you think of it :-) thanks.
