You know what drives me absolutely insane?
My entire life both my mom and my grandma have never been able to believe that good child actors exist. Instead, they insist that all child actors are "little people" or "dwarfs."

My guess is they have never met or gotten to know any real "little people". If they did, they'd realize that Little People have the same "adult" maturity that regular sized people have. Thus Little People couldn't convincingly pretend to be children.

I actually went to school with one, and he was on the fencing team with me, so I find it pretty hard to believe. They just don't honestly think that children can be trained to do impressive things.

Hey, you're on the keeshond rescue list aren't you? That's where I got my pooch. :)

She clearly has never met Kelly Campbell-Oszlewski, who in eigth grade was better than most professional actors I've seen.

On the bright side, that means there's no child porn.

Just dwarf/midget porn.

Isn't that cheerful?

Have you pointed out that Shirley Temple grew? :) (And became a US Ambassador).

P.S. I adore that icon for all the *wrong* reasons!

Hi there, I'm one of the mods for debunkingwhite. We recently received your request for membership; as part of the intake process, we ask if you could share a little about your interest in anti-racism and what drew you to the community. (We like to get a feel for where people are coming from). You can either respond here or send an email to my livejournal.com address, either works. (Please put your username in the email if you do that, though, so I know who I'm talking to :) Thanks!
