I grew up in a small town where I went to the movies a lot and fell in love with all these people. I also fell in love with the movie business. So all I saw were actors on the screen so I thought, well, that's what I have to be if I want to be a part of the movie business.

I fell in love, not deep, but I fell several times and then fell out.
Having to parent your mother or father is a challenge that way too many teens have to deal with.
