Stay in high school!!! You have to finish High school. If your High school has any amature theater than join them. And take acting classes. Don't quit High school. If you do that and then start taking acting classes then you might find out one day that acting isin't for you but than you cant go to college because you havin't finished High school and that would not be good. So finish High school! You can take acting classes while your in High School. After High School you can either go take a BA in acting or move to a major city (New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Dallas, Miami...) and take acting classes and try to get parts in independent films and amature theater. You have to build up your resume. Acting classes, roles in independent films and amature theater look good on resumes. When you have built up a resume you can get an agent. But don't think that getting an agent is going to make things easy for you. The agent can get you to auditions but they won't get you roles. Being an actor is very hard work. Being an actor is more that a full-time job. You have to be willing to put all your energy into your career if you are going to be an actress! I hope this helpes. Good luck.

Okay, are you just saying that you've had a tough life to give you sympathy? There are so many actors out there who've had tougher lives than you. That attitude will take you nowhere. Charlize Theoren saw her mom kill her father. Just because you want it badly doesn't mean you'll make it there. No one's going to hire someone who wants it so BADLY, but isn't good at all. People want confident, determined people who are determined to go through losses. And if you drop out of high school, you might as well say goodbye to the acting business.
