If children are the roses in our life, these celeb children liked to show their thorns.
For celebrities, fame and money can often play against their own offspring.

Even though Jaycee Chan followed in his father’s footsteps and chose cinema, it seems that
he lost track of the sensei guidelines.

Beloved Charlie’s Angel, Farah Fawcett, passed away and left her only son, Redmond,
when he was a bit older than 20.

the clerk to hand over the money from the register.
He suffered from drug addiction throughout his adulthood.

A young model and the daughter of Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards, Theodora,
was in rehab a couple of years ago.

submerged in her notebook.

Born Patricia Ann Reagan, Patti Davis was nothing like her super-conservative father, Ronald Reagan.
She even changed her name to pursue an independent career.
With her hippie persona, she didn't much fit into her mother's anti-drug war.
Patti went against both of her parents and wrote a tell-all book about the Reagan family.
She took an active part in anti-nuclear protests, which caused a lot of disputes, since Reagan
was in control of nuclear codes at that time.
And, in 1994, she posed nude for Playboy magazine.
As they say: the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
Carter Cash, in all respects, is very much like his father.
Firstly, following in the footsteps of his legendary dad, Johnny Cash, Carter is also a country singer.
Johnny Cash left his son $100 million, while his daughter inherited only the measly crumbs
from his networth.
Secondly, we can call him an outlaw as well.
Cash got arrested in Newfoundland in 2014.
It was a funny situation, although the circumstances are still not clear.
Carter was traveling back to the US after a hunting excursion when he decided to undress
in the airport, leaving just his underwear.
He was 44 when he was arrested, but didn’t face charges.
Witnesses reported a man being drunk or having medical issues in the airport.
The security reported that they managed to convince him to put his close back on by the
time the constables arrived.
