Topic: Child actor

	Child actor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The term child actor is generally applied to a child acting in motion pictures or television, but also to an adult who began his or her acting career as a child; to avoid confusion the latter is also called a former child actor.
		A child actor may not (1) risk his or her physical well being (no dangerous stunts), (2) be exposed to morally compromising situations, (3) be nude or partially nude, (4) engage in overt sexual acts.
		Others argue that it is unfair for the child to have to support the family when the parents are capable, as this tends to tends to invert the parent child relationship.

	Salon \| The ocean blue
		When a very young child actor delivers a performance as convincing as Thivisol's (and she is utterly, transparently convincing), it begs a question: Is acting an instinct or a craft, deliberate or unconscious, child's play or the product of hard work?
		The life of an actor is generally thought to be incompatible with a happy youth, and common wisdom says that behind every child star lurk fanatically ambitious stage parents who warp the personality of their vulnerable offspring beyond repair.
		Child psychologists have discovered that kids figure out how to lie almost as soon as they can talk, and they create a pleasing image in the eyes of adults.

	Finding Joy in a Child Actor
		If we have a child who "doesn’t want to be here" because of fear, we allow them to get up when they’re good and ready.
		My concern is that their child truly loves to act and that it empowers them.
		We usually evaluate whether a child wants to be in class, help them to discover why they want to be there or suggest to the parent we believe the process is having a detrimental effect and for the child’s sake, maybe they need to re-evaluate their intentions with the child’s wishes.
