  1. Child stars of Hollywood often don't fare well. Have some compassion Matt. Look at her early life and the awful example both of her parents set for her. How did you expect her to turn out? It's a miracle she's still alive.

  2. Watch a documentary on here called Child Stars:The Dark History of Hollywood's Golden Age

  3.  @stevest-laurent  I don't have a TV so I've never watched it The clips I've seen of it, for example of her fawning over Mylan Dullveiny...., were cringe inducing I have to admit 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

  4. ​ @breakthecycle5238  Child stars generally don't end up happy, well adjusted adults. I watched a documentary on YouTube the other day about some of the earliest child stars. They way they were treated, bullied, drugged, even groomed and abused.... is heartbreaking. Hollywood has a long history of chewing people up and spitting them out. I'll see if I can find it and let you know where to find it. I'd post a link if I could but YT doesn't allow it

  5. ​ @breakthecycle5238  The documentary is called Child Stars: The Dark History Of Hollywood's Golden Age. The channel owner is Serena G. It was an eye opener and incredibly sad to watch

  7.  @KratostheThird  Indeed, there were others before her though. The documentary I mentioned shows some little boys in Hollywood films that suffered terrible abuse
