Why I Wouldn't Want Childhood Stardom for My Kids (Pt. 1) | Kirk Cameron |
Dave Rubin of The Rubin Report talks to Kirk Cameron, star of ABC's classic hit show "Growing Pains," and feature films including "Left Behind," "Fireproof," and now the host of the American Campfire Revival about the dangers of being a child star, if Gen Z & young people can save America, and how faith might be able to help us bridge the political divide. In this clip Kirk discusses what it was really like to be a child star. He talks about the insanity that resulted from him being the star of the 80s sitcom “Growing Pains” and corrects some of the tabloid rumors about him. He shares why he would never want his kids to be child actors and why he’s lucky to have survived the whole ordeal. Kirk describes how he went from being an atheist to a devout christian and how it changed how some scenes from “Growing Pains” were filmed.
