I hate it when celebrities capitalize on their kid's problems and write books about them or when a celebrity becomes the poster child of a disability that their child has, and charities relating to that disability pimp out celebrities and make them the "face" of that disability, hoping it will help bring attention to the disease and help raise money, it cheapens the image of disease and lessens the seriousness surrounding it, especially if the celebrity involved has been involved in controversial activities. I want celebrities to stay out of charitable causes as well political affairs. Anonymous donations are welcome but celebrities should not become the face of a disability.

Like an ex-Playboy Bunny becoming "the voice of autism" because her son had a condition that was thought to be autism; but ended up actually being a seizure disorder?

Or VP candidates parading a Down's Syndrome child?
