I’ve also had other TV kids on other sitcoms, people whom I love and who are mostly grown-up now—the incredible Kat Dennings and Brie Larson on a great short-lived show called Raising Dad, and the super-talented Jared Kusnitz and G. Hannelius on a shorter-lived show called Surviving Suburbia. I’m told I may one day work with kids again because the statute of limitations has run out on all of the restraining orders.

As whacked as I may be as a person sometimes, I take very seriously the responsibility of child actors in general. Most of them didn’t even choose to go into this profession, and all of a sudden they’re thrown on a set with a lot of people who become their “instant family.”

It’s a conundrum for actors—some work the rest of their lives, most do not. But to be a child actor is often to be a survivor and go deeper as a person than a lot of people ever have to. Childhood is hard enough, and to throw in that additional component can be complicated.

I treasure the relationships I have had—and will always have—with all my gifted friends whom I had the privilege of getting to know through work, when they were very young humans. They keep me young. I am much more responsible as a man today than I would be without them in my life.

And when little kids somehow find themselves in an audience when I’m performing as a standup—because their parents do not know the tenor of my comedy, I do not swear until they are escorted into the lobby and quickly given a shot of Jack at the bar.
