Jodie Steers Kids Away from Showbiz
5 02 2008Childhood stardom is not all it's cracked up to be–Jodie Foster knows this. That's why the actress and mother of two sons is trying to deter her kids from pursuing this pitfall-filled path.
Foster's elder son Charles asked the two-time Oscar-winner to use her clout to land him a role, but Foster told him he had to do it the same way everyone else did. Good for her!
"I warn him that I'm not going to find him work. He can do theatre after school, if he wants. Obviously, he's completely uninterested in theatre. What he wants is to appear on TV. I don't believe that he really wants to be an actor," she declares.
Note to Charles: the limelight may look appealing, but for every Jodie, there's a Britney, Lindsay and Amy!

US Weekly snapped this picture of Jodie Foster, 44, and her son, Kit, 5, at an LA cafe on January 3rd. Jodie also has another son, Charles, 8, not pictured. No one knows for sure who the father is, since she has yet to reveal that information. Rumor has it that an anonymous donor is the father of both boys.
