I sent an email with pictures and info to an agency I researched in a nearby city (I live in Wisconsin). They told me to call and they would give me an appointment. I told my mom about it and at first she sounded excited but then all of a sudden she said it was a 'waste of time' and that unless 'I'm america's next top model its useless, and if you are, you should try out for that!" She started rambling about applying to Elite in NY (I have no experience or even a portfolio and she expects me to go from that to some supermodel in NY???). I don't understand! She'd rather have me been in Robert Powers Modeling School spending thousands of dollars for uselessness. I really want to go see this agency but no way can I do it without her support.

Okay... there are lots of so-called modeling agencies out there. First they convince you that you are the new "It" girl, playing on your vanity, then they make wads of money selling these packages of stuff to new people... photos, styling, and all sorts of junk, but the jobs don't happen.
It is a very old racket.
Everyone has someone in their family that has been taken in by one of these "agencies".
She is probably worried about something like that.
