HomeIf your underage kid had the talent or charisma to go into the entertainment biz (acting, singing, etc) and was being scouted by some major studio, team, record label or whatever, would you let him or her?

That's funny because I thought of bringing this up the other day.
I think a few commercials, maybe a couple of TV spots, maybe a few movies, yeah, but something long and drawn out that they become perfect prey for mobs of crazed fans and the media, no. They need to be able to be kids before their lives get screwed up like that.

Sure. Why would I stop my child from being able to buy me a mansion?

So long as they agreed to all of my terms, understood that I had veto rights, and could pull my child out of any project at any moment for any reason, then sure.

I would. But as others have said, I wouldn't be just "mom" in the situation. I would have final say on what is going on.

Yes, I would. No need to stifle their talent. I'd definitely be very hands on though. I would love for my child to turn out like Raven-Symone.

ITA with red and impact! I'd never just sit back and be on the sidelines.
