HILARY DUFF confident she won't be a dysfunctional adult

HILARY DUFF believes she has low chances of growing up to become a dysfunctional former child star - because she wasn't pushed into her career.

The teen singer and actress, who has been in show business since the tender age of nine, has watched a number of young stars grow older and become resentful wrecks as their careers fade. But Duff would like to think she won't be a statistic.

She says, "I think I'm really lucky, I'm happy. I think so much of the difference is when I was younger I grew up watching so many of these older people and the difference is that they didn't get to choose if they wanted it. Their parents made them do it.

"Or they started at such a young age they didn't have a choice, and that's not really how my sister and I started. I was old enough to know that I liked it.

"Another thing is a lot of them, I think, are the main income for the family, so they kind of don't get disciplined like normal children. They get away with a lot more because they're supporting the family."
