| Simon told them the truth? When kids are totally clueless, are parents to blame? Click here to read more from Karyn's blog. Are we just as guilty as the Idol-wannabes' parents? Whether your kid is bad at sports, performing or just scrabble--where's the line between supporting them and giving them false hope? Is telling them the truth squashing their dreams? |

I have a friend who is the ultimate stage mother. She’s convinced her daughter has a perfect singing voice and is destined to be famous and is busy dragging her from agent to agent trying to get someone to discover her incredible child. Meanwhile, her daughter auditioned for a part in The Wizard of Oz at school and won the role of the “non singing” Tin Man. If that doesn’t speak volumes, I don’t know what does! Her response to the news of learning her talented daughter didn’t get a singing part…the auditions were fixed. Some mothers will just never get it.
