Child Stars

A child actor has a limited time career. Child stars have come and gone, and there are always those people out there that want to become famous. I think that many young people have that dream to become famous, but many dismiss the idea and go on to other ideas and thoughts about a future career.

One thing that I have found is that many child stars are not ones to have successes in their adult years. Why? It's because that everyone is so used to he or she in their particular role. A good example would be the cast of The Little Rascals. All of the kids in the "Our Gang" series had great success as child actors, but as I said before, an actor can only have a career as a child for a number of years. If you get too big, or too old, or your voice starts to change, than you would be canned and someone else would take the part. That was the case of the Little Rascals. Many of them turned to drugs or alcohol because they would be so miserable trying to deal with being an adult.

When I think about the Nickeolodeon and Disney stars, I think that many of them will have future careers in film, episodic TV, or even music. That has been the case for several of them so far in their young lives, and it will continue into the future
