Help! Parent running out of steam

@akapiratequeen - your post could not be more timely. I feel your pain. I woke up in a panic at 4:00 this morning worrying about all of the upcoming audtions. When the prescreening results came in, auditions were many weeks away. Now they are starting this Friday and I my stress level is going through the roof. It takes all the self control I have to try to keep my stress to myself and away from my son, and I often fail even at that. I take comfort in hearing from all the parents that have been through this before and who lived to talk about it!
