Look at all of your options, justsometwat was spot on when she mentioned experience on your resume.

    If you can I think it would be better to talk to your mom about it. Have an honest, adult conversation about everything so she can understand what is going on- no reason to throw you out if she gets surprised, and no possible interruptions during a cam session. Lay out why you want to cam, what kind of earnings you realistically think you'll make, what times you'd need to be left alone, equipment and speed needed, ect.

    Beyond that I would concentrate on the clip sites to start with. Film as much as you can when you can and work on building up a following in different categories.
    Don't worry, I've been putting lots of thought into it! I don't think I've ever really considered going into a field that would outright reject me for having a past as a sex worker, as I've always preferred more independent work. But it's very good advice! I do tend to get ahead of myself and jump right in sometimes, so thank you. It's a good reminder to check my impulses and to really think things through.

    Having an open conversation with my mom is probably where I'm headed. Hopefully she'd open herself up to it enough and know that the more I get done with it, the less time I'll have to spend doing it (around her, anyway).

    Clip sites have been the biggest part of my plan, even if they don't generally bring in the most. I suppose that varies, though, as some girls do extremely well on clip sites! It'd be a good use of my alone time for sure, and something I'll more than likely spend a good chunk of my time doing.

    Not quite, but I know all the girls are coming from a good, caring place, so I definitely appreciate their advice for me regardless. At this point, I don't think the lack of sound is too big a problem, especially if some guys know I'll be doing sound once I'm out on my own. I haven't really found anything low maintenance, either, but figure queueing on clip sites is going to be a heavensent little option. Record tons of videos, upload 'em all at once, queue 'em for whenever/however far apart, and then the rest of the week is practically effortless (unless you're making more clips and uploading and queueing, etc.).

    Here is some ideas:

    You can sell used panties and other things on Ebanned.com and other panty sites.

    You can work as virtual escort and domme on Second Life. ( Second Life does take time and has a learning curve but you can make between 300 extra per weekend)

    You work as psychic entertainer for the psychic power network ( You get paid once a week with them)

    You can make audio only, slide show, and machinima clips on clips4sale.com

    You can work as freelance writer.

    These are good suggestions as well, thank you! x

I kept my volume low or muted because it was my parent's that made the most noise and I felt a it embarrassed since people could hear in the background. I ended up being lucky in the aspect that while they didn't like what I did they knew that my options for employment were limited and accepted it.

    If you're comfortable getting something like a ball gag could also be a turn on for some and a reason for not talking. The whole "shhh, my roommate's are home!" or "shh, my parent's are home!" (I did get a lot of creeps with the last one, but it made $$$ during camming) thing can also work in your favor.

    I saved up enough to move out in a few months. :-) Do what you have to so you can get out! I do have a lot more fun now that I can make noise and phone sex can make a bigger part of my income, too.

    As for clips it's def possilble to make successful ones where you don't talk! A clip model on Tumblr I follow doesn't talk in their vids and they do great. Good luck!
    I'm a little afraid of telling my mom, but it seems most do, and it's most likely going to happen. I just hope she is accepting enough to deal with it for awhile! I would have to negotiate with her as well, as she likes to turn the internet off at night so my sister (another obstacle) and I won't "be up on it all night". I'm sure there are compromises she will be willing to make with me!

    A fetish for being quiet or being gagged (or otherwise silenced) is a definite advantage, I think! I don't mind it, it keeps things down, and I know some people are really into it, so it's a win-win. There are creeps everywhere, they seem unavoidable, unfortunately. But hopefully they're kept at a minimum.

    A few months, that's really inspiring! I hope I have as much luck with it as you. I definitely will expand to more once I have the privacy of living alone, and that's exciting to me! (If I ever get my stupid talking on the phone anxiety out of the way, I feel like phone sex would be so fun!)

    It's good to know there are silent clip models who make it well, sometimes I feel like I'd never be satisfied with certain clips with me talking, to me I sound more awkward than sexy!

    Another thing you could do to help with the sound issue is do a few small things to "sound proof" your room a bit. I have cammed from my parent's house before and am about to go back and do it again. I think they know I cam, but we haven't ever had that discussion and I don't ever really want to. Yuck.

    Something I do/am going to do is place some pillows by the crack under my door to muffle the sound and then place a small fan plugged in near the door too. If anyone walks in, it looks like I am trying to keep my room cool during the summer, but what it actually is doing is keeping any noise from being able to be heard from outside my room. If you don't feel comfortable talking to your mom about it and still want to cam, doing a few things to keep the noise level low from outside your room would enable you to at least be quiet instead of silent when camming.

    Not saying to lie to your mom if you don't have to...but I think it's also understandable to keep camming out of the conversation if you don't think she would be supportive. Once you tell her, you can't really take it back.

    Default Re: What sites did you do while living at home?

    I started camming independently from a panty selling site back in 2008 when I was young and still living with my parents. I then graduated to a niche site. I made sure I only worked while my parents were at work. If they were home I'd only cam if they were sleeping and I would talk, but not moan. This, and selling panties/items allowed me to save up to move out. I also scored a local sugar daddy who helped out. I saved up and moved in with my bestie and cammed and enjoyed that as well. That was years ago. Now I'm on my own and can be as loud as I want. Do what you have to do, just make sure you cover your tracks. She never has to know.

    Camming is whatever you put into it. You can cam with or without sound, and work ANY site. You can work 1-2 sites simultaneously 5 nights a week for 5 hours a shift and still make decent money depending on your hustle. Just make sure you're safe. Don't keep questionable items around your room if your parent is known for walking in, or cleaning up (laundry). This includes camera equipment if you have any. I had the type of parent who flipped out if they saw a dildo as that wasn't very "Christian" of me Now it's 2015 and my parents still don't know what I do. Sometimes you have to hustle in secret.

    As for C4S I think you only need to submit the bill if you're not in the US. Good luck, stay safe and save, save, save. You never know when you'll be ready to fly the coop or your mom catches you and kicks you out. If you're going to do this under your parent's roof without their consent at least save up just in case shit hits the fan. I don't necessarily agree with having that "talk" with your parent. Not everyone's parent is forgiving or understanding. Some parents would rather cut you off than agree with their son or daughter doing adult work. I have that type of relationship with one of my parents so it's best they stay naive. I think damage repair is a lot better after/if you're found out.

    Yeah, sound proofing or at least muffling the noise in the room is a good idea. It seems an awkward discussion to have!

    I hope the pillows and fan work for you! It's something I'll probably do if I end up camming while my mom is at home (my sister has summer school coming up, so she'll be out, and though my mom works at home, she tends to go out quite a bit).

    It's not a lie if I just avoid the topic, which is what I'm doing now. I doubt she's very interested in barging into any aspect of my sex life, anyway. I hope she keeps to herself. You're exactly right, once it's out, it's out.

    I'm getting a lot of good advice from everyone here, and I'm going to do whatever I have to do. Covering my tracks is a must. All until I can get out of the house.

    Yeah, I know this stuff is all about effort, naturally. You get out of it what you put into it, usually. Ha, I feel that thing about the dildo, though. My parents wouldn't be cool with seeing something like that in my room. I already have a back-up plan/excuse for if I'm asked where I'm getting the money from.

    Ah, okay. Looking over it (and after emailing them), I think I'll only need a W9 form and proof of identity (photo ID is what the email said). I'll definitely be saving, every cent I earn goes towards my moving out fund, nothing else. I hope the day doesn't come where I'm found out, but if it does, I hope I'll have enough by that point to just leave.

    I'm glad to see this topic revisited as it has been part of why I took my camming break since moving back home (parents AND brother) for a bit while I've focused a bit more on school.

    Yeah, I did stop. Entirely. My parents know that I did some kind of "adult modeling"- found out when i was around age 20/21 (10 yrs ago OMG). I would not like them to know about camming (I know the realities of the whole finding-out-about-it-inevitably-at-some-point, but I've not had to deal with that and am still taking the delicate steps to continue that).
    Living on your own or with roommies is so much less stress.
    I would NEVER advocate for a girl to sign with a studio HOWEVER, depending on your location, some studios are indeed actual places you can physically go to....lighting, internet connection, all that jazz).

    I dunno. I just kinda feel like, after 18 & living with parents, it's best to respect their "rules" even though, of course, there's not a cam specific rule. There's just so much that could lead to problems..... if they find out, they may kick you out, they might not. who knows. my sitch is different from yours for sure.

    I will say that i CANNOT get off or even consider talking dirty out loud knowing someone related to me might hear it at any random time. (I've been doing my cam stuff while they are out.....not conducive to a regular schedule but......at least I have that.

    I dunno if my reply is helpful. I just.....think.....don't do it when parents are in the house......i guess.

    I cammed on MFC when I lived at home with sound.....probably not the best idea but 18 year old me didnt think and I got away with it. One day I was in the middle of a group and my sister was banging on the door. I had to end it and when I opened she asked if I was sex-skyping with my bf bc it took so long to answer.
    Anyways there a quite a few things to consider with camming at home....
    1) being found out because of sound.....talk about awkward if your parents found .
    2) If your parents go to claim you on their taxes bc you live with them and are a dependent you are gonna have a hard time explaining 1099s. I almost go found out this way but since I lived a home 5 months out of the year instead of 6 I narrowly got away with it.
    3) If they wouldnt want you doing it....it fall into a "their house, their rules" moral situation. Some people live on a "what they dont know isnt lying situation".... its up to you

    If you do want to cam and have dealt with the tax issue (if they still claim you and you get away with it come tax time you will be found out)
    You have 2 options
    1) cam while you live with them
    2) get a min wage job for 3 months save every penny move out, then cam

    As far as the c4s issue, when I signed up it did make me provide a bill and Im in the US....I lived in an all inclusive place so I didnt have a water bill or anything....I used my bank statement so if you do need to provide proof just get a bank account with your address on it.

    Hey, at least your sister banged on the door haha, mine would just barge in like she always does, then she would start yelling. Yikes. I guess it was a decent break that she just thought you were on Skype, though. If anything, lately I've been thinking about staying off cam until I move out and trying to get enough from video selling sites, which would require me to be pretty good if I wanted to get enough to move out from those alone, but to me they seem a lot less risky for the time being.

    The whole taxes thing is a hang-up, though. I need to open a bank account still (last I talked about it with my mom was when I was seventeen and wanted to open a savings account), but I'm not so sure where to start. I'll look into that very soon. I'm hoping that I'll kind of get enough money saved up in time to like, avoid taxes while I'm still living at home. I'm hoping opening a bank account will solve all my 'afraid of getting found out' problems.

    I'm glad it worked for you!!! Fans are great because they are white noise. So glad someone else is getting to use this trick to keep our job discreet
