I remember my friends and I looking forward to puberty because it seemed exciting at first.

Children change a lot in terms of personality. Camaraderie that you feel with somebody might not be there a year later.

I'm surprised by how much I remember.

I was very aware of being younger than everybody on set.

Whereas when I was a teenager, other teenagers didn't want anything to do with me. It was even like that in college to a degree. People of that age don't want anything to do with their childhood, because they had put away childish things, and they're trying to distance themselves.

I thought I started acting at 5 or 6, it was really when they were interviewing real families for a toothpaste commercial. They interviewed our family.

People view child actors the same way that girls treat their Barbie dolls.
