	IGN: IGN Interviews Sean Astin
		SEAN ASTIN: Well, no. I mean, I am a biological product of my parents, and my upbringing – the nature/nurture question, I've found, is always endlessly fascinating.
		ASTIN: It's funny, because you can make $10,000 for working in an aftershool special, or $50,000-$80,000 working on a miniseries, or $85,000 working on a feature film, but I was just as happy and just as fulfilled making $4.85 an hour at the movie theater.
		ASTIN: Yeah, voiced her concerns, or lodged her disapproval or confusion at me. She's a woman who is very old-fashioned and really likes things to have a kind of propriety to them – but she never gave me a handbook on exactly how to live up to what her vision of the world was.
