    This kinda shit is why i believe coogan’s law needs to be updated to include a requirement that a child’s actors’ money be handled by a professional with a fiducary duty to the childs best interest such as a cpa or a lawyer.

    Too damn many child actors find out mom and dad spent all their money or lost it to con artists and bad investments.
