<p>I would never do the work for my child. I am helping her with her applications, but all I am doing is the repetitious stuff with the applications. She did the initial application and then I took over where I could. She still has to go in and answer specific questions only she knows the answer to, or write the essays. I will also make the travel arrangements for auditions, but keep her in the loop the whole time.</p>
<p>When it comes to auditions, she is doing all that on her own or with her coaches. No input from me other than to pay the bill.</p>
<p>Your right, these kids have such busy schedules, but I think they thrive on it. At least mine does.</p>
