[quote=Anonymous]There are rules in place to protect children who work in the entertainment industry- Coogan laws that mandate 15% of their earnings go into trust (that can’t be withdrawn by parents), required work permits and limits on the amount of time a child can work. My kids have worked in professional theater and television and we all have to follow a set of very strict rules. I assume that because this is “reality” tv there were workarounds for the rules and the money earned by the kids wasn’t actually considered their money. It’s absolutely disgusting that these kids were exploited and didn’t have anyone to protect their interest, and especially that it was their parents who were the main exploiters. [/quote]
