 Lindsay Lohan hit the big time at the age of 11 with the 1998 movie The Parent Trap. For about eight

months, she had to shuttle between the movie’s sets in London and in Napa Valley, California. This

raised one of the biggest issues for child stars: education. Tutors helped her keep up with her studies. But

Lindsay’s mom, who was also her manager, arranged for Lindsay to do most of her schooling at public

schools close to home, even after she became a big star. She lived with her parents and three younger

siblings on Long Island in New York. She refused several acting jobs because she did not want to live in

California for months at a time. That all seems normal enough.

Still, the dangers of fame waited her. The hit movies she made in her late teens, including Freaky Friday

and Mean Girls, made her enormous amounts of money. They also made her a target of reporters and the

aggressive paparazzi who stalk celebrities. Unfortunately, her personal life gave the press a lot to write about.

Her parents, during divorce hearings, fought over Lindsay’s money until a judge told them to stop. Her very

wealthy father was sentenced to prison for suspicious business dealings and was repeatedly changed with

assault. After moving to Los Angeles at the age of 18, Lindsay became the subject of many stories about

Romances and partying. Like many child stars before her she developed an alcohol problem – before she was

old enough to drink legally. The tabloid press pursed her constantly. On several occasions, paparazzi who

were chasing Lindsay crashed into cars she was driving.

Lindsay Lohan clearly needs a break from fame. As her mother, Dina, told CBS News, “I just pray the

tabloids to give us our space and leave us alone”
