still banned from flavorpill, I guess
well, you can read my response here, folks:
"In fact, even Flavorpill isn't immune to making fun." OF course not, this snarky website can't resist kicking anybody when they are down, so it's surprising you didn't include Shirley Temple Black, who grew up to be a Republican. Most of these people you featured seem pretty mediocre and dodgy to me, you ran out of good examples fast I guess. How about Johnny Crawford? How about Paul Petersen who founded A Minor Consideration to help other former child stars who were exploited and abused by Hollywood (and fellow travellers like Flavorwire?), Phil Collins, Davy Jones?

Child Actors Who Became Awesome Adults
Child actors get a bad rap. In fact, even Flavorpill isn't immune to making fun. But we have to admit that a good number of them have managed to avoid the stereotypical fate (drugs, nervous breakdowns, reality TV) and carve out pretty inspiring lives for themselves. For this list, we've rounded up some of our favorite former child actors who have done awesome things as adults; they aren't all Hollywood A-listers (although some definitely are), and some aren't even in the industry at all anymore, but they're all making a great contribution to pop culture or the world at large.

I'm 59 and participated in countless Vietnam protests, boycotts,etc. In my teens I was very aware of politics because of a little thing called the Draft. Knowing that Uncle Sam could snatch you up at any moment after your 18th birthday kept your eyes and ears open. And I've kept them open.
Nader was a hero. Today there are few in this country for whom I hold greater contempt.
I felt in 1968 and believed today that there was no difference between Richard Nixon and Hubert Humphrey. I know what an electorate having no real choice means. And by real I mean a candidate who can win, not hand the far worse opposition the victory because of uncompromising ideology on election day.
For Ralph Nader to have toured this country telling college audiences 32 years later that there was no difference between Al Gore and George W. Bush was a conscious and ego driven lie. And please, Nader fans, don't tell me he didn't say it, or how he meant it. I sat within fifty feet of him twice and heard him say it with my own ears.
I don't blame Nader for the Iraq War. I blame him (along with Republican officials in Florida, and the Supreme Court) for playing such a large role in putting into office the man and men who did. And for knowing full well that he was doing it. By lying.
