Trailer—Aaron Carter: The Little Prince of Pop

It hurts to watch these things happen to people. I wish wr could have given what he wanted. It's a tough industry. It hurts to watch these celebrities lives be ruined for entertainment. You can see a lot of his emotions through the photos and you can tell he was huhurting. It hurts to watch these things happen to people. I wish wr could have given what he wanted.

Aaron was, at his core, an addict. He hid from responsibility, from blame, and from himself- which is classic addict behavior, but a lot of it was self-inflicted. He and his 'fiancé' (fellow addict/enabler) Melanie, seemed to somehow feed off of each other, and dragging nothing but leeches into their orbit. They were so encompassed in their addiction that their child was removed from the home, and yet it wasn't enough to drag him from the grips of this insane addiction. That his sister also passed away from addiction should be an indication that their life was nothing but turmoil, tumultuous and painful and all these leeches who reveal themselves in this show, and with a straight face purport to be supporters of his, should reveal a lot to anyone willing to look beneath the surface. This Dr. Trevor needs to sit down, as an ER doctor, his expertise is nowhere near an addiction specialist- he should have immediately been directing this young man to an inpatient treatment center with qualified psychiatric care and physicians to set him on a recovery path, instead of this ridiculous 'big brother' role he reports to have taken on- Aaron had a big brother who, after decades of abuse from Aaron, had finally come to the last resort those of us suffering with addicts come to, walking away when we can no longer endure the abuse, the theft, the constant blame heaped upon us, and Trevor should have been a doctor. Nothing more, nothing less. Who is this absolute moron, Melanie, anyway? I understand she's his fiancé, but giving her even an half second of screen time is irresponsible- she supported his addictions, and that she has any role in the child's life is abhorrent. This mealymouthed soap opera style show is no better than anything TMZ puts out- because Aaron was a pseudo star for five minutes doesn't mean he should be canonized and shrines built in his honor. A lot of people did a lot of things to perpetuate his spiral into the depths, and ABC seems intent to capitalize on that.

I've got nothing really to say about the documentary other than that it was mediocre but also informative. Aaron Carter was one of my childhood crushes. I never really followed up on him. I had no idea he was struggling this hard. The fact that he was 34 (my current age) when he died; he had serious issues with family (like me); and was alone (like I am now) hit me hard. So many things in common. And there are many people like us all around the world. Yes, we are not alone in that sense. But we are really alone. Once you go through certain things in life, there isn't a good chance of going back, which is what happened to Aaron. The actual tragedy is not departing from this dimension of life but rather being in so much pain from the very beginning to the end. Not to mention being at where you are despite of all the things you are capable of.

Poor kid. What a POS that Melanie Martin is. His mother should be dragged. Holy hell. The misappropriation of his money, the lack of support and direction by every single person in his life is just alarming. It's obvious he was used and then tossed away. Tragic This was a good doc about how alone he truly was. Why should he have had to ask for help when clearly everyone helped themselves to everything he had. Such a waste. Especially his parents....they are a waste of space and air. It's amazing that narcissistic mother of his didn't want to participate in this doc. Surely she 'managed' to profit off of him only to abandon him when things got tough. Keep his kid away from Melanie and give it a chance.
