I'll be honest I didn't really know what it was about and what got me was just a couple

words in the description you know saying like oh what was really happening on you know behind the scenes on sets and like I was like oh I was a child actor

I'm curious to see what was going on never did I ever think I was going to encounter anything like what I encountered, you know, you're watching

what the entire culture was like.

This is not what happened because Nickelodeon this, that.

Of course it touched me personally, of course it did, but what it also reminded me of is how far we had to come to get to a place where people like Christie get to advocate and we know what she means when

she says the mental health of children on sets matters and there are things that

we can do to make sure that there are no exceptions.

You don't get to push that child.

We've all grown up around enough kids

that you know when the kid is in pain

and they look to the mother and the mother says,

you're fine. because that's what not only

our industry requires that's what our culture has required.

I've chosen not to speak about this with anybody,

including ID who originally came to me looking to see

if I'd be interested in a dock like this.

The echo chambers to me are not helpful and these are people

that don't belong to our community. These are outsiders. You know, maybe if they knew where to, you know, put money towards to fix a problem, they would, but these are trauma tourists.

You know, my first reaction was, like, where, where was I when all of this happened. It just didn't feel like the same world that I was

familiar with. All of the stories are heartbreaking. It dug a very deep hole in my heart to hear about people

that I know who supported someone who, you know, they heard a confession from.
