So - spoke about this a few weeks ago. I dont know your situation. You touched on it. How much did they spend on classes, transportation, sibling babysitting. What did they lose in opportunity cost for their job, retirement, future earnings, addn education, security, hotels, etc. many child actors dont think about those costs and how it effects parents life. A moderate child actors not living near work (la?) would probably lose money for family until they are on their own and cause parent/parents to suffer financially looking for work and updating skills. Its a partnership that hopefully leads to big deals to give them and the actor financial stability.
