Ryan Grantham is a former child actor who is now going to get life imprisonment for killing his mom. He basically snaps on her. Child stars and teen stars usually have momagers or stage moms who controls their lives.




We had seen so many former child stars who became a mess with drugs, alcohol and depression like Macaulay Culkin, Lindsay Lohan, Amanda Bynes and Cory Feldman. A lot of former child star suffer from mental health issues because of lacking in normal childhood or being exposed to predatory directors,producers and talent agents.

There had been suggestion before to replace child actors with CGI or proportionate dwarfs. Proportionate dwarfs looks like real children but they are adults.

Had to be really bad for a person to kill their mother some people don't know how to deal with situations in life but this one is call going to far with things.

Aaron Carter, who is like the Justin Bieber of 90s is found dead days after having a DUI. Hollywood needs to protect child actors because their mental health after adulthood ruins them.

This is not a good thing. If they could only help me psychologically, it would not come to this situation. It always happened when a person is so addicted to illegal drugs, alcohol, and the like. It is a life pattern that makes them agitated and they cannot control their senses.

Hollywood needs to considering using CGI children instead of actual children

[peachpurple]

Hollywood should stop using child actors because they are still naive and easily controllee by bad adults. They are really innocent children

Child stars and teen stars usually have momagers or stage moms who controls their lives.

They must have it until they have 18. Than they can work with any manager or alone without parent permission.

Not in case of Britney Spears who have to sue her parents to have control of her life and money. Aaron Carter committed suicide because his estate got bankrupt by his mom and dad leading to his depression.

I have not heard of this but I think this is the best solution. A lot of people disagree about child labor but they don't talk about child labor in the entertainment field.

But killing his mom for having control in your funds is not the right decision as Ryan Grantham is doing.

If she did think how parents use her, why she didn't broke contract? As I remember when you turn 18, contract must be sign again since now you are responsible and not your parents anymore. This is regular practice in football world. Player, 15 years old. Parents sign 5 year contract with club. When player turn 18, contract go on his name. Then he can do what every he want.

her parents found loopholes in the law. They made her use drugs then say she is mentally unstable. Boom! Her parents got 100% control of her Estate thanks to Supreme Court. Aaron Carter (RIP) and Amanda Bynes also have similar fates.

Wow, how tragic - I only just saw it! I think these child stars often struggle to settle back into normal lives when the acting roles dry up. The parents can also get too greedy and controlling, pushing their kids to despise them. It's a crazy world!

drugs is such a bad thing that we don't care what we are doing..
