Fame: Fame can be hard to handle and some don’t make it out. Child stars is it a curse to catch fame at such a young age ?

Or does Hollywood just kind of build people up and then chew them out and especially childhood actors? What's your opinion on it? And why do you think people like to see people fall? Why does society like to see people when they're in their downfall? What is it about it? Does it make them feel better about themselves? And why do people thrive on it? So hopefully I'll get some responses. I'm eager to hear what your opinion is on this. Thanks

Talking child stars and fame . Why as a society we like to see people lose. We thrive on the downfall.

We didn't even have Fox until the back end of the 80s. So if you were on a hit sitcom, you were a beast. Everybody knew you. And that was her experience. She said, I went from being this young girl that nobody cared about to suddenly my voice was the most important in the room when there were adults surrounding me. And she said when I was 16, I didn't know what I was talking about

And it's the machine of the teen idol. Let's use them while they're hot. And when they're no longer marketable, let's throw them away. And a perfect example is, unfortunately, is Corey AME. What happened is the role stopped coming in. He was no longer marketable and nobody cared. Nobody cared. It's very sad. I did read Corey Feldman's book, and he does go into that a little bit about Ken trappings of Hollywood
