"In her book, Stardom Happens, Smith's mother Candy Bennici recalls a terrifying anecdote about her son's time on Home Improvement. "In his first year, Taran was 7 years old, we were in Santa Monica, and a man grabbed my arm. Taran was maybe 20 feet from me. He said, 'Listen, I need to talk to you. I work for the FBI, and the three boys from Home Improvement are the top target of pedophiles in the world. You can't just leave him alone. Don't ever let him out of your sight.' It was something that did not come into my brain. You're in the fun of it, and you're not thinking about things like that. Unfortunately, you need to be aware of those situations."
