No idiot, that's not what you said.
What you said was "Millions of dollars that agents or managers want to claim control of. "
You didn't say anything about her parents wanting it
And the person corrected you, rightfully so -

I still very heavily admire her (currently use her pic, a favorite of mine, 16_bynes_lgl from a French-Canadian site, one of her wholesomely sexiest headshots, as my Facebook profile.)

. . . Who can say how a person will grow up who was a really brilliant commediane as a child and teen?
I think just about anyone desiring to be an actor or 'discovered' would succumb to the intial excitement of fame, then be overwhelmed by the realities of it.
We know 100% of all famous people will not survive fame, tho it seems 'fans' and viewers certainly expect it, and many are certainly ready to express disdain or incredulity when fame chokes the life out of a star.
A famous kid has all of the regular pressures of being a teen, and the identity crisis we all go thru, multiplied a thousand times by expectations from every single person in their life, plus millions of strangers!?
And the additional rather perverted, extreme emphasis placed on the importance of weight and
beauty is so over-the-top, PLUS a girl like Amanda was surely expected to be adorable funny at all times . . .
I'd crack too.
Pressure will burst a pipe.
Maybe some people were never really meant to be famous, and have to endure pressure and scrutiny about everything in their life from every person in their life plus millions of strangers making the most ridiculous, rude, and judgemental comments possible, who can have no clue what showbiz is about.
Maybe some famous people have to go thru fame to discover they were really just meant to have a close circle of friends who they enjoy joking & laughing with, like most infamous people have. -

Amen. I always love these "oh, poor thing" posts about how awful it is to have people worship you, cater to your every whim, and worst of all, what will you do with all those just awful millions of dollars?
Last I heard nobody has a gun to these people's heads. If you are so "unhappy" you can always leave. -

Schizophrenia is a severe and chronic mental disorder that you have but you cannot get. Poor parenting, lack of willpower, and childhood experiences does not cause this disorder. It happens to all types of people. It doesnt matter if theyre poor, rich, famous, m pampered,had a hard life, etc. It just happens and can manifest at any point. They didnt ask for it so yeah i think Id feel some type of sympathy for something they didnt ask for. It can also be a pretty crummy disorder. I mean if were going blame someone for their mental disorder, should we blame michael j fox for his Parkinson disease or David Bowie dying from cancer.celebs are people too . Just because they have money doesnt mean it provides confort. They have to live with the effects of a dilitating and fatal disease or the effects of the medication to their body. I cant really blame someobe who by chance was given an opporunity to act in a movie kr do something they love which by chance made them famous. It really doesnt mean we should be anyless sympathetic to them. Still mental disorder do happen whether people have a cushiony life or not.
