Growing up with a superstar as a parent can often be difficult.
Several horror stories have emerged from the children of big-name celebrities over the years.
However, that’s not always the case.

As evidenced by the legendary child starShirley Temple, celebrity parenting can be done well.
She was far from the wild and crazy celebrity parent stereotype.
Rather, according to her children, she was no different than the parents of their peers.

According to her children, life at home was as normal as could be.
To him, “She was an amazing person.
She was wonderful and normal.
We had dinner at the table every night all together” (viaAmoMama).
Her daughter Linda also had sweet things to say about her mother.
“She was devoted and generous, and she could be a little stern if we didn’t behave.
But she was also a lot of fun.
Very inventive and imaginative.
She was all about her children and her husband,” she said (per Fabiosa).
It seemed the only strained relationship was between Temple and her daughter Lori, who struggled with addiction.
