Your Child Is A Star!  email this discussion to a friend?

If your child had a great talent, would you go to any length to make them a star?

Look at Tiger Woods. His dad helped him become the world's best golfer. Look at how much the man makes. Would you do whatever it took to make your child a star if you thought they had a special talent?

i would do whatever I coulc to make sure my child was safe and happy, and got to do what she really wanted. i would not do anything to make her a star. being a star means nothing in my mind.

As long as they are happy...that's what counts.

Only if it was what they wanted to do, being a star is no use to anyone if you are not happy being that star.

If my child had a great talent and they wanted to further it I would do all I could to make sure they got to continue to do this all the while making sure they are happy and content, and no matter how close they might come to be a star if they showed any signs of being unhappy id let them stop if thats what they wanted to do

We do anything for our child's happiness, don't we.


myLot reputation of 95/100. kezabelle (2745)   ranked 1,686 out of 26,919 in people  4 years ago

Yes I would do anything I could to make them happy not in a buying them anything they want happy but just a general feeling of being loved happy

I have to say no I would not. I have a daughter who can sing her tail off. Oh how I wish I could get her to do anything. Well a friend and I sent both our kids pictures to a studio in White Plains. Less than 2 weeks later I was sent an invite to come in. I did and she was picked to do catalogs. She was too shy to even get out of the chair.

A few years before I move to Ny. I spoke to Dougie freshes father here in Mount Vernon where he lives. He told me to get her to do one song on a tape. I have yet to get that tape from her. Mind you she wrote her own song as well.


When we were living in Miami my little angel sang for Christopher Williams. he even offered her free studio time. He said she would need to work on her shyness.

Another day she was in her full body cast with her broke leg. Singing a song Whitney Houston sang. I hear a knock on my door. It's a neighbor who could not believe it was my daughter singing that song. I took him to her door to listen to her. stating once I open the door she will not sing again. guess what she did just what I said stopped singing.

I am done with all this and she is on her own. She now wants me to get her to go on auditions to be on the disney channel. No sir ree bob I am done.

I think most performers are naturally shy at heart. Maybe someday, she'll come into her own...so to speak. It's good to know your limits, and hers....

Way to go momma. I know your kids are so special, and thankful to have such a great mom as you.


myLot reputation of 97/100. 34momma (5912)   ranked 175 out of 26,919 in people  4 years ago

thanks girl. i do my very best. Not always a easy job, but I was chosen to take care of these three children and I will do whatever I can to make sure their dreams come true. My little lady wants to be a model. Yes she is three and she wants to be a model. So girl i am in big trouble

How cool though that she wants that. That's just too cool. and what a better place to live than where you do.....


myLot reputation of 97/100. 34momma (5912)   ranked 175 out of 26,919 in people  4 years ago

i was thinking of sending her pictures out there. she has the personality for it thats for sure. but girl she is hard to live with now, if she sees herself in print or on tv i am not going to be able to live with her. but at three it is something she talks about a lot so i am going to give it a go and see what happens


myLot reputation of 99/100. terilee79720 (1458)   ranked 173 out of 26,919 in people  4 years ago

I think that's awesome. It would be terrific, all the way around, teaching you both so much. Go for it honey......

I really can not say. I do not have children. But I do know that there is a very high price to pay for fame and sometimes, it can cost your life.


myLot reputation of 99/100. terilee79720 (1458)   ranked 173 out of 26,919 in people  4 years ago

Not only do the kids have to have a special talent, but you also have to know such much about the business. Sometimes it can cost more than your willing to give.

I would support them,if that is what THEY wanted, but I would never push them into it..If they were meant to be a star, then they will be..
