Don't Tell Mom the Babysitters Dead

Just discovered this movie is on HBO Now. I grew up watching this. I'm looking forward to seeing it again as an adult. Of course now I realize what a crap parent the mom is. But I guess that makes the Dad even worse. I don't remember him even being mentioned.
I do remember reading that one of the child actors overdosed in his teens or early 20s.

The kid that played Zach in the film, Chris Pettiet died of an OD at 24.
The older brother, Kenny, was played by Keith Coogan, the IRL grandson of Uncle Fester from Addams Family.

Most of the landmark child actor law is based on the Coogan case. He was the second most popular actor in the world during the silent film era. He was Charlie Chaplin's kid sidekick. His parents squandered in today's money hundreds of millions of his wealth and left him peniless.
So, today, the laws around what parents do with their child's money is called Coogan Law.

However, Coogan found that the entire amount had been spent by his mother and stepfather, Arthur Bernstein, on fur coats, diamonds and other jewelry, and expensive cars. Bernstein had been a financial advisor for the family and married Coogan's mother in late 1936.[12] Coogan's mother and stepfather claimed Jackie enjoyed himself and simply thought he was playing before the camera. She insisted, "No promises were ever made to give Jackie anything",[10] and claimed he "was a bad boy".[

In November 1933, Brooke Hart, a close friend of Coogan from Santa Clara University, was kidnapped from his family-owned department store in San Jose and brought to the San Francisco area San Mateo–Hayward Bridge. After several demands for a $40,000 ransom, police arrested Thomas Thurmond and John Holmes in San Jose. Thurmond admitted that Hart had been murdered the night he was kidnapped. Both killers were transferred to a prison in downtown San Jose. A mob broke into the jail, and Thurmond and Holmes were hanged in a nearby park. Coogan was reported to be present and to have held the lynching rope.[5]
Uncle Fester led a crazy life.
