Rejection is an inevitable part of acting and modeling. Discover advice for parents on helping kids process setbacks, build resilience, and focus on growth.

How to Handle Rejection: Advice for Parents and Kids

It is never pleasant to receive rejection in any aspect of life, but it can be especially tough as a performer. The reality, though, is that every model or actor will have to face and handle rejections, as it is an unavoidable part of show business. As kids are still learning to build their resilience in the face of adversity, here are a few useful pieces of advice to aspiring performers and their parents.

<ul dir="ltr">
	<li>Accept that rejection is a natural occurrence. No model or actor goes through their career without rejections.</li>
	<li>Change how the auditions are viewed. It is not all just about the final result, but also about trusting the process of personal growth.</li>
	<li>Managing the expectations realistically. The results of casting calls are the sum of complex criteria where nothing is guaranteed.</li>
</ul>
