Wil Wheaton survived considerable fan backlash, and now has a great marriage, a career as a professional geek and blogger, and more fan love than ever. He didn't implode, though, just retreated and took stock. He's an intelligent person who seems like he had an extremely supportive and smart family to help.

Yeah, I read his autobiography and used to read his blog. But his family stuff was just so cheezy I'd roll my eyes in response so I stopped reading it.

Tobey Maguire. Or is the other one that I confuse him with? The Hobbit??And speaking of hobbits, the other one...you know...Um...in Goonies?

Joshua Jackson? Sarah Michelle Gellar?

I don't know why you don't look them up when you're confused.

Elijah Wood, not Tobey Maguire.

Although Tobey Maguire did start off a little young.

Thing is, Elijah Wood is totally unattractive. I'm not surprised he didn't get in much trouble.

I think Sean Astin (the Goonies guy) did get himself in some trouble.

Sarah Jessica Parker!

And on that note, Matthew Broderick! :)

Rigth right, Elijah Wood. I swear, to me, he and Tobey Maguire are the same.

Sean Astin - I knew his name! I just blanked. I even saw him in BWI once! Very down to earth guy.

What about Leonardo DiCaprio?

Why look them up when you'll do it for me [insert evil grin here]

The Coreys! But Corey Feldman especially. Now they're not much more than nostalgia trips and reality TV novelties.

*hits head* omg! So right!

How could I have forgotten them? I almost put down The Lost Boys as one of my favorites when we did the trivia meme. Then I remembered I watched it a few years ago and it really didn't hold up much.

And since you mention The Lost Boys, Kiefer started off young (plus being the son of an already well-respected actor) and has done well for himself after...like...almost two decades of mostly forgettable movies.

Quite true. I hope he doesn't go to jail, or they can at least schedule his time when they're not shooting.

Despite playing a prostitute at the age of 12 and being a supermodel at 15, Brooke Shields turned out just awesome. She went to Princeton, was something of a beard for George Michael at one point, but no sex scandals, and she recovered with great aplomb from her divorce from Agassi. Now, she is an actress and supermommy, ripping Scientology a new one (for its anti-woman bias against medicating post-partum depression) with grace and dignity.

I should have mentioned Brooke Shields when I was originally posting this but for some reason I didn't. I think I didn't consider her doing much now? Although she did have the stint on Nip/Tuck. Which reminds me, I need to finish up season 4.

Anyways, thank you bringing her up, I shouldn't have excluded her.

It's OK! Gives me a chance to write about how awesome my first crush is, has been, and ever shall be.

Well, a few years ago, Brit *did* say she wanted to be a young mother...she just didn't say whether or not she wanted to keep them.

Former child stars who are now adult stars, who (I don't think) had any major scandals...

Jason Bateman
Robby Benson
Amanda Bynes
Seth Green
Anthony Michael Hall (he had an alcohol problem, but quit drinking in 1990, so I am not sure he counts).
Anna Paquin

There are probably others, but these are the ones who I know of that are actually working as adults on a regular basis.

Yay Seth Green! And on that note, Willow, too! She was in My Step-Mother Is An Alien! Oh right, real names. Alyson Hannigan.

She was in My Stepmother Is An Alien WITH Seth Green. :-)
