I do feel bad for Demi Lovato though. She's a Disney kid (from a very young age), and frankly, so many of them seem to really struggle as they go into adulthood. I mean, a lot of child stars in general end up in trouble... look at Macaulay Culkin for example, who only just seems recently to be "coming back" to a healthy / normal life after being in real trouble since his teens. BUT Disney seems for some reason to have a much higher "percentage" of it's kid / teen stars going off the rails in their late teens and 20's. I think one probably has to question whether or not they're properly looking out for the health of their young stars.

i'm not so sure it's a disney trait or anything like that to be honest. The "kids" that put themselves forward (or thrust there by parents) tend to a a particular personality trait.

Well balanced individuals tend to then be average achievers, those with a particular high level skill tend to be lacking in other areas.

For example, there are loads of comedians that suffer greatly from depression. We are what we are, and the people that tend to stand out in one thing have huge flaws in other ways in compensation.
