Child actors. Is it right?
Thu, 24 July 2003, 11:15 amHello,
I am doing a research assignment on child actors. If you could possibly answer these questions and email them to me it would be so much help. Please note: Your email address and name will be kept confidentail. The only other person who may see this information is my teacher. For more info please email at - jassy_jase@yahoo.com
Q1:
Do you believe its right for mothers to push their children, some as young as 2 into modeling and talent agency's?
Q2:
At what age do you belive children should be allowed to work in the arts industry?
Q3:
Do you think it's right for theatre companies to use children to rope in profit. Eg. Annie, Oliver, Sound of Music.
Q4:
Should we wipe out child performing all together in television/theatre. Allowing only children from 15 onwards to enter this field?
Q5:
In your own opinion, what is a normal childhood?
Thank you for your time,
Jason Triggs.
