I agree with JR - let it all out. You said just what I was thinkin'.

We almost traumatize celebrities with our adoration. On one hand, I feel angry at the Nicole Richie's and the Brittney's of the world for the example they're setting for our young people. On the other hand, they are young and somebody should have taken them under their wing and explained the pitfalls of celebrity-hood. 'Course, which one of them would have listened?

I agree with mit as well - they don't have the same struggles most of us face - money, jobs, children. Those are all things that help us grow, whether we like it or not. The train wreck celebrities I see aren't growing up that way. So they stay forever children.
