Hollywood Kids
好莱坞儿童
In Hollywood, everybody wants to be rich, famous and beautiful. Nobody wants to be old, unknown and poor. For Hollywood kids, life can be difficult, because they grow up in such an unreal atmosphere. Their parents are ambitious and the children are part of the parents' ambitions.
在好莱坞，每个人都希望变得富有、出名和美丽。没有人愿意衰老、默默无闻、贫穷。对于好莱坞的孩子而言，生活有些艰难，因为他们的成长在如此不真实的环境中。他们的父母野心勃勃的，而孩子也是他们野心的一部分。
Parents pay for wastful grand parties, expensive cars and designer clothes. When every dream can come true, kids don't learn the value of anything because they have everything.
那些父母大把地将钞票花在盛大的舞会、昂贵的汽车和设计师设计的名牌服装上。当所有的梦想都实现的时候，孩子们还没有了解任何事物的价值，因为他们已拥有一切了。
A 13-year-old boy, Trent Maguire, has a driver, credit cards and unlimited cash to do what he wants when he wants to. "One day, I'll earn more than my dad." He boasts.
一位名叫特伦·特麦圭尔的13岁男孩拥有一位司机、信用卡和足以使他可以买得起任何他想要的东西的花不完的现金。“有一天我会赚得比我爸爸更多。”他吹嘘道。
Parents buy care and attention for the children because they have no time to give it themselves. Amanda's mother employs a personal trainer, a bodyguard, a singing coach and a counselor to look after all her 15-year-old daughter's needs.
父母们花钱给他们的孩子提供照顾和关注，因为他们自己没有时间给他们的孩子这些。阿曼达的母亲聘请了一位家教、一位保镖、一位歌唱教练、一位咨询师来照顾她15岁女儿的所有需要。
Often there is no parent at home most days, so children decide whether to make their own meals or go out to restaurants, when to watch television or do homework. They organize their own social lives. They play no childhood games. They become adults before they're ready.
通常父母大部分的时候都不在家，因此由孩子们决定是自己做饭还是外出去饭店吃，决定什么时候看电视或是做作业。他们管理自己的社会生活。他们没有童年游戏，在他们还没有准备好之前，他们就成了成人。
Hollywood has always been the city of dreams. The kids there live unreal lives where money, beauty and pleasure are the only gods. Will chidren around the world soon start to think the same? Or do they already?
好莱坞一直以来就是梦想之城。孩子们过着不真实的生活，在那儿金钱、美貌和享受是唯一的信仰。难道不久全世界的孩子都开始这么想了吗？或者他们已经这么想了？
