    @Xinnix: Yeah. Snark aside, it's dispiriting that the score is 6-0, Boys vs Girls.

    I'm trying to figure if the lack of Girl Wonders is because of patent sex bias on the part of the media gatekeepers, or if it's because they've got cooties and (except for Mom) are sorta yucky. #wehateyourkids

    Forget about the angry spirit from the film, Paranormal. The demons lurking in the shadows surrounding these children are ambitious and obnoxious parents who see themselves as failures.

    None of these children are doing anything that significantly adds to the common culture. They are bright and personable, but they aren't Mozart.

    Childhood is to be spend wandering, dreaming and trying out various personalities. I spent my childhood blowing things up and masturbating. Which is why I am fairly happy adult.

    I wouldn't guess that this is any less fraught with pitfalls than being a child entertainer, and there are a hell of a lot more casualties in that field than there are folks like Kurt Russell and Ron Howard... #wehateyourkids

    Orson Welles was a child prodigy. Lets look at his timeline: 1. King of the NY theater scene 2. Writer, Star, and Director for "Greatest" film of all time 3. Boxed Wine 4. Final performance voice acting in the animated Transformers motion picture. #wehateyourkids
