Question

Brent Golding was very popular at his high school. He had a lot of friends. Brent felt that the only reason they liked him because he played football and drove an expensive car. Most people did not realize that Brent was passionate about break dancing. He loved the freedom he experienced when he spun, flipped, and kicked to the beat. Dancing was not an acceptable thing for a football player to do. People seemed more impressed by how many pounds he could lift. Even though there seemed to be more of a future in football, Brent’s heart belonged to break dancing. How could he tell his parents that he’d rather strive for a rare dance scholarship instead of a more attainable football scholarship? How could he prove that he would have a better life as a break dancer than as a wide receiver? His dilemma was he could not prove this. He did not think his parents would understand.
