Jodie Foster started as a Coppertone girl and was in about 50 TV shows and movies before she even made it to college. Foster made a pretty smooth transition into the adult acting world. She is still doing her job, and doing it well. She’s very private and has even kept quiet about her sexual orientation. [

Hancock was terrible because of scientology nuts-o Will Smith. Well, that and a half-baked story. Mostly Will Smith.

It’s 10 years too early to declare Dakota Fanning all right, but we can cross our fingers for her.

About the Olsons, a billion freaking dollars helps.

I bet if you you looked at all the stars names you will find that the reason they managed to have it together is because their parents were very involved in the careers—in a good way. They didn’t use their children as a stepping-off point for their own lives.

Although the Olsens have it together now, there was a time when one or both of them were very skinny, maybe anorexic.
And what about Christina Aguilera? I know many people don’t like her. But she has her act together and she is married with a son. Plus, she has always managed to stay out of the tabloids.

@ writergirl - Oh, Brooke Shields’ mother gave it her best shot. They were estranged for a long time. But I agree with your main point, today’s parents of child stars are in it for themselves more than anything else (Lohans, Cyrus’ et al!).
