On Broadway parents are being ushered out of the theater at the 30 minute call. In forty-nine States neither a studio teacher nor first aid are required on Commercials. Every parent who trades the welfare of their child for a few dollars in illegal overtime is doing more than teaching a bad lesson to their off-spring. They are damaging all future children in this Industry. No one is immune.
Parents are the responsible party.
In the largest percentage of cases Parents do a good job protecting their children whether in this business or not. But there is no such thing as perfection in human affairs. The bad stuff is happening and we need to know about it. An incompetent teacher needs to be reported. A request to break the law coming from any quarter should be made known.
