    Default me wanting to dance made my momma cry

    hey ladies!

    i recently got a phone call from my older brother...he told me that our mom told him that i wanted to move away and become a professional stripper (not true. i want to do it to save up money to move to california and my current job isnt cutting it. i also am one semester shy of getting my bachelor's degree). slightly angry, i confront my mom about it and she starts to cry saying "i dont want you to get hurt and you have every right to be mad at me" i assured her that wasnt my career goal. it would be alot easier to get into dancing if i lived by myself but since i live with her its difficult. the reson why i wanted to do it was to earn money for school, save up to move away and maybe a new car (i have a 1991 ford tempo ).

    thats about it

    You're lucky, most girls have a harder time dealing with disapproving family members. Let's just say my Christmas shopping list is much shorter than it used to be.

    (Remind her dancing will enable you to buy a car that's not a deathtrap- I drove a 1990 Ford Escort...Never again, bleh!!!)

    I stopped basically because my mother begged me to (my mother never begs). The guilt was enough to keep me from going back.

    However, stripping was never the greatest money-spinner for me anyway, probably because I can't hustle to save my life and I look like I'm drunk when I try to walk in stilettos.

    Your mum sounds like she was just worried for your safety. My mum was the same until I assured her there were very nice and very large bouncers on my side. She knows she's being a bit out of control and that's nice. She has the perfect foundation for talking to and understanding.

    I also live with my mother and had her say about the same thing to me. She also added the word "cheap" in ways she certainly should not have.
    Even though its understandable for mothers to want their daughters to be perfect little angels, thats just not life. Hopefully time will calm those waters!

    Its strange, but it seems most of the dancers I have talked to are doing it for their studies, etc. Now, if that doesn't show determination to succeed in life, nothing will!

    You are lucky to be able to tell your mother and reason with her. I could never tell mine and I have been dancing off and on for 14 years. (I'm 36 and have always had another career as well or school).

    However, my younger sister thinks it's cool and she gives me stuff like feather boas for my birthday And my brother is amazed and proud that I am still attractive enough to make some great side money

    I went through a phase where I really felt I needed to tell my parents. It was a thoughtful custie who asked me if I would tell them for my benefit or theirs?

    I decided not to say anything and I think it has been for the best.

    Good luck with your situation.
