You're right Rose.
Life toughens you. Someone who has to take care of her/himself (and others maybe) learns the value of $ and things.
Experience is very important. The best way to learn.
Experience in the sum of all your mistakes. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
It builds your character... the way you react on things that happen to you and others.
If you constantly have others around to take care of you and handle mistakes you made... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" /> You never learn a thing.
I dunno how long this HD been in the movie or TV world, or whatever she does. But there are enough examples of child stars and teenage stars who completely ruin their lives.
