Summary

Protecting child actors from abuse and mistreatment is a cause that's been thrust into the spotlight after recent media coverage revealed especially harrowing tales about the dangers of an unchecked system for adolescents on TV and movie sets. Alyson Stoner was once a child star, doing multiple projects with the Disney Channel. Now as an adult, Alyson has taken up the mantle of advocate, pushing for more safety and protection measures for child stars who have been thrust into the limelight. On the FOX News Rundown Extra, you’ll hear the full conversation with Alyson Stoner about the difficult experiences child stars suffer through, the legislation they are helping push to protect children from exploitation from influencers and media companies, and the mental toll the entertainment industry can take on child stars.
