What?
[edit]“Renfro's early death has raised questions as to whether Hollywood's systems for protecting child actors' welfare are adequate for at-risk youth acting in films, since they rely on the child's parent or guardian to supervise them when off set. Many of those who worked on sets with Renfro said his grandmother, with whom he had lived since the age of five, could not control him. In fact, she may have been disincentivized to do so, even to the point of taking him off productions, which she alone had the authority to do, since she was dependent as well on his earnings.”
Raised questions by whom? Where is the citation or source for this? It reads like an opinion. Also, starting a sentence off with “In fact”, doesn’t sound encyclopedic. I might remove this section in a day if no one cleans it up. Paige Matheson (talk) 23:25, 23 June 2018 (UTC)
