[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 35772"] How much do the lessons cost? I would start by talking to your trainer or the owner of the barn, cause they know you. Your foot will already be in the door. Look around the farm and see if there is anything that is not getting done, that you could help with. Suggest that you could help in these areas. Tell them how much you wish to continue with the lessons and that you're heart is in it and how much this means to you and ask them what they would do if they were in your shoes. You may get some helpful suggestions. Look elsewhere. Babysitting can provide a fair income. See if there are some babysitting courses to take. If you can get some training, that will get you in the door better. Ask your Mom if there is anyway that you can do some extra chores or take on some responsibility for an allowance. Ask your neighbours too.
