I hope he gets his S*&&* together but the odds are against him. You can't do it for him, he has to choose life over death. We all do.
Bad parenting or the lack thereof results in bad kids and this is no exception.
Where did you come up with that gem ? Sometimes you can be a great parent and things happen. Kids grow up, become adults and eventually choose their own paths. While most of the time you hopefully have some influence on them and they make the right decisions, that is not always the case. There comes a point where you have to be responsible for yourself and not blame your childhood. This guy is over 30, an adult- needs to be responsible for his own choices and mistakes!
Actors need to raise their children with even stricter than the average parent. I don't imagine M.D as a great father to have, but I don't don't know that, just on vibe i say this. When you come from this type of privilege, you have too far to go b/f you run out of options. M.D brother Eric died from his drug addiction too, sad.
I never understood why they get into drugs, man. He could have done anything with himself, lived anywhere, gone to any school, ect. So he'll be a hard 40 when he gets out i guess. Ten years of prison, which he better get, b/c he deserves it, ain't pretty, no matter whose son you are.
Dot-Dot-Dot So much so, his girlfriend just (((HAD))) to try to sneak in a toothbrush filled with c o c a i n e into his house while out on bail. Hope it was worth it, girly!!!!!!!
Who Cares? I like Michael Douglas and his father but know nothing about his son except he Turns out to be a jerk. Who cares? Michael has a brother that's a jerk too but I don't care about that nobody either. Waste of space knowing about these people.
The son looks like Gonzo from the Muppet Show!
I heard Cameron is being cast as Michael Douglas's long lost son in the movie Traffic II.
I've seen people, born with every disadvantage under the sun, who have soared all the way to the top of their potential and achieved mega success (i.e. Oprah Winfrey). On the flip side of that coin, I've seen and known people, born with every conceivable advantage, who couldn't get off the ground for probably a great variety of reasons. I'm not prepared to say that Cameron Douglas had bad parents, etc. or to give any other reason for his bad choice, because I don't really know the family. Was the pressure of living in the shadow of a gifted and famous grandfather and father too much for the boy to live up to? I have observed a high suicide rate among celebrity offspring (i.e. the sons of Gregory Peck, Mary Tyler Moore, Paul Newman, and a daughter of famed director, David O. Selznick, for example). Who really knows why?
Kirk Douglas was born into a poor Jewish Russian family in a town called Amsterdam NY, 45 miles north of Albany. A friend of my mom's went to school with him and knew him very well, she remembers when he left Amsterdam. This happens quite a bit the father or grandfather excels in life and the kid with all the breaks screws up.
This guy is so done. Why for the life of me do people of such means and privilege do the dumbest things. Well he can kiss all that good bye now. Pretty boy like that may be sold for a pack of cigs in Rikers or Attica!!
I don't have sympathy for addicts like that, not even some members in my own family. They care nothing about how they destroy other peoples lives along with their own. So why should I care about their destroyed life when they finally have to face the consequences?
Dumb, really dumb.
The tool didn't fall far from the tree.
"I'm rich! I can afford health care! I don't have to work! My father is a millionaire and my family owns a lot of property in Bermuda!
I'll trade that in for a lifetime behind bars!"
Summed it up perfectly. Good grief !!!!
St upidity abounds . . .
can t do the time , don t do the crime ....
