I thought I heard something concerning this when the John & Kate marital problems originally surfaced. From what I understand, there are laws regarding child actors (the more strict being established in California) requiring that at least a portion of the money child actors make be "held" for them, in a trust (if I'm not mistaken), until they are old enough to do with the money what they wish.
I would look this up now if it wasn't 4am. Maybe tomorrow
