My concern is that some modelling agency disguise themselves as so when they’re actually doing porn.

Don’t stress too much about losing 1 year at 18. I think kids don’t know what they wanted to do and just follow in on what’s around them. I grew up in an oil and gas town so all I knew was to be an engineer like my dad. Turns out there’s so much more out there when I move away.

Whichever option you choose. Make sure that you as the adult knows what she’s getting herself into.
