Sorry, but there isn't one child on planet Earth that genuinely has that 30-year-old-trapped-in-a-7-year-old's-body syndrome like this kid did.
Those that spend their childhoods pretending like this grow up to be Dana Plato or Michael Jackson and try to mainline on heroin or become porn stars and whine about how their childhood was stolen from them.
The only real talent I saw on screen was the short role given to James Earl Jones.
Just my $.02
I totally agree, it was a lifetime movie though and not supposed to be taking seriously, but then again, when these types of people in this class that watch these "lifetime movies" they get a little too overwhelmed with believing everything that their seeing.....scary!!!

Actually she reminds me of a friends daughter who is very smart, and switched on. But still doesn't know everything and isn't trying to be older.
This film reminds me of Big Daddy
To me it may be it may be a bit unusual but parts of it seem to be very realistic. What I mean by that is in a number of fictional shows, books, movies, and even some cartoons a character sometimes a child will show unusual levels of maturity,other times they seem to be still what you would expect of a child to be very silly, and still other times they seem to be an unusual combination of the two (I don't know if that happens in real life or not but it would not surprise me if it did.
For example her sense of humor seemed (to me) show she may be very mature but she still could be silly similar to what you might expect of many kids. Another example is when she misled her dad about having piano lessons, she was actually asking the woman (I don't remember her name but it was the same woman he was later involved with possibly in large part because of her) to type the stories he told her which she deliberately recorded, she did not seem to realize why it would upset him.
I don't care if you agree with me or not but do not criticize me for thinking it. Also I am sorry if this a bit wordy or oddly divided but I have always a hard time with those kinds of things.
