“When he went to have his tonsils out- he must have been seven or a little older- he sang songs all the way to the hospital. Unfortunately, Driscoll’s life was anything but a fairytale and instead embodies the consequences and hardships that can sometimes come from the harsh reality of the spotlight. Peter Pan is voiced by Bobby Driscoll, who was a child actor and also, Walt Disney’s first live-action movie star. I still love them especially the animated adventure, “Peter Pan” but I have learned that sometimes there are some tragic stories behind the magic. Don’t get me wrong, I love Disney and grew up with the films. From day one, they have always expected their stars to act and behave a certain way to uphold their image. Disney Studios has gone to extreme lengths to maintain their standards and family-friendly reputation. She also successfully distanced herself from Disney. Cyrus eventually took a downward spiral shattering her squeaky-clean image and now won’t keep her tongue in her mouth but, hey, she still has a career. She continued to act and sing after her show but she was still associated with Disney and was still expected to be Hannah Montana. Miley Cyrus hit the same obstacles when she finished her show on The Disney Channel, “The Hannah Montana Show.” America loved her and she was viewed as an innocent, fun loving girl next door who could do no wrong. Paul- Mark Gosselaar, who played Zack Morris on the hit 90s show, “Saved By The Bell,” admitted that he was unable to find any serious work once the show was over because no one could see him playing anyone but the Bayside High student. The typical trend for them seems to be that once they have grown up or their show is over, they are stuck in that role.
Some stars go on to have successful careers but not everyone is as lucky. Considering the events of past child stars, it is no secret that they go through hell and back to earn and keep a career or to cope with losing it. Celebrities have breakthroughs and break downs all the time but it seems as though child stars are more at risk for falling on hard times and hitting rock bottom in the future.

Show business has always been cut-throat and full of an immense amount of pressure and stress. Being an actor/actress is not easy but, being one as a kid, is a whole different ball game.
