Hey! Im sorry to take your time but please tead through this, I woukd appreciate it so much!

I am 12 years old and i want to become an actor, but how can i do it?
I mean, i am SO in love with acting. It is'nt about fame at all for me, all I can think about is acting: entertain people, just doing the job. I know that acting is probably one of the hardest jobs in the world, but I know I can do it, I can put my heart and soul into acting, I can give up everything for acting, acting is just me! i have'nt thought about anything else than acting since I was like 4 years or something. And int isnt like everyone else who want's to become actors. For me, its EVERYTHING, Acting is my thing <3

But the problem is my parents, if I just mention acting they would laugh their eyes ou, in my family, EVERYONE just has to become doctors or something like that, my family does'nt support me at all. I love acting but they just dont get that. They think that because there is like 100000000 people in the world who wants to become actors, I wont be one of the few who can do it. But i can, if I work hard I can do it, because I want it more than anyone else it the whole world, my family just does'nt care about what I want.

And the other problem is that i live in a small town in Sweden, there have'nt been any auditions here in like 5 years or so. If i even mention to go to America or something to my family, they will refuse! I will never be able to go somewhere where there are any auditions.

So how can i bevome an actor? Is it easy if i wait till im 18, then travel to america myself? Because if i look, most of the actors start their career when their around 10 years old ?
Will I get a acting career if im a newbie when im 18 ?

But im good at acting too, if I could go to a audition right now, im sure i would get the part.

Please give me some advice!
