No disrespect to his hardships but I feel Peter Dinklage has proven lil brehs just needed to step their acting up.

True. But Gary was really set back by his parents stealing his money.

I watched a Diff'rent Strokes doc a couple weeks ago. to look at another angle, they said the parents didnt really steal his money but was taking it out of his control because they knew he was gonna fukk it up. he was still a teenager I think and he wanted control of his shyt. had he been able to do that, he prob wouldve been dead a lot sooner. I remember him being on talk shows years after the show talmbout he was a virgin. I mean he didnt start getting p*ssy til he well in his 30's they said.

Nah his parents conspired with the agent/manager to loot his funds. They spent ALL of it. Good thing is Hollywood changed the laws after that. Thats why guys like Mccauley grew up with millions in the bank to retire on at age 18

Those Different Strokes kids ALL took Ls. Todd Bridges only one who got himself together. I'm afraid to google to see what he's up to, but he was doing pretty well last I heard.
Last news on him was he got stole on and dropped but his neighbor. It made TMZ, before that he saved somebody in a wheelchair from drowning in a lake.

it's weird because different strokes is still played to this day, shouldn't he have been getting royalties :mindblown:

His parents were evil if they really :birdman:'d him. When you have a disabled kid/family you're supposed to look out for them more.
