10 Child Stars Who Grew Up To Be Surprisingly Normal

"Child actors"

Having the mind of a child and the money of a grown up—a very, very rich grownup—is usually a bad combination. I’m talking about child stars. It doesn’t help that most laws are just “laws” to them. What’s the drinking age for a child star? Something like…14, right? Then add the fact that they have just as many responsibilities as a 30-year-old, so they end up dating 30 year olds, and it turns out to be very hard for a child star to grow up a healthy, normal human being. Lindsay Lohan is the new poster child for child stars gone wrong these days. But for all the Lohans out there, there are those who somehow manage to transition seamlessly into adulthood. Check out the 10 who did just that.

    The amount and types of intrusive ads on this site (at least the mobile site anyway) are absolutely RIDICULOUS!!! I understand needing to pay bills but come on!!!

    I have to literally fight with 2 or even 3 ads just to read a dang paragraph! You guys are seriously about to lose a very loyal reader!

    Nice to see that it is possible, though highly unlikely, for kids to make it out of Hollywood without ending up in rehab.
    It’s also nice to see all the homophobic comments on here about Jodi Foster. Not at all offensive.
    Seriously, though, this site should really get people to screen for stuff like that. I find such behavior disgusting and repulsive and am considering unliking the site b/c of it — and this is my first time visiting it!
