Most agent offers are legit.
One rule stands on its own: an unexplained upfront fee = walk away.
One other red flag? Pause and ask. Several? Walk away.

1/ I was a working child actor for a decade. My family got some things right by instinct, and three things badly wrong. A short thread for parents just starting out. 🧵
4/ The silence when the roles slowed down. Nobody warned us it would come, or how quiet it gets. It's normal, it isn't failure, and it's easier when you've talked about it before it happens.
5/ None of this needs fear. Most representation offers are legit. You just need to know what to check, what to ask, and what can wait. That's the free Roadmap: thestageparentsystem.com/fre…

If I could tell them one thing: talk about the quiet before it comes. It's normal. It isn't failure.

Plain wall. Natural light. Done.
Your kid faces the window (never back to it), stands about a metre off a neutral wall, and the phone goes sideways.
That's the core of a clean self-tape setup, and you already own all of it.

Self-tape setup you already own:
• phone, sideways (landscape)
• kid faces the window, never back to it
• plain wall ~1 m behind
• fridge off (then back on)
Casting judges the performance, not the gear.

Child actor to stage-parent guide, the honest version:
First role at 5. Working for a decade. A supporting role in a franchise by 14.
From the outside it looked perfect. From the inside, nobody was teaching my parents anything.
That's why I built this. Free Roadmap in my bio.
I was in X-Men and three Twilight films. My parents had no playbook.
We got some things right by instinct, and some badly wrong. I'm sharing all of it.
