This often overlaps with ParentalBonus and DemographicDissonantCrossover. Kind of contrasts with OldShame, only most of their work becomes an Old Shame (which might apply to someone who consciously stops doing a particular type of production for good and downplays or tries to ignore what they did before). Frequently overlaps with BleachedUnderpants.

* Creator/AshleyTisdale voiced Stariana in Film/BabySharksBigMovie for her daughter Jupiter.

For some reason, this often gets conflated with MoneyDearBoy, despite the fact that children are in no part of the definition. While an actor might do a children's show because it pays well, it's only this trope if the actor's motivation is explicitly based on producing a work that can be enjoyed by children (usually their own). As such, AwesomeDearBoy often has more to do with it, especially when it's a long-running children's show that holds nostalgia factor for them or a remake of a movie they grew up with. Can be the [[JustifiedTrope justification]] of {{WTH Casting Agency}} and CelebrityVoiceActor. At times has also been invoked in an attempt to break {{Typecasting}}. Related to WrittenForMyKids, where an author writes a work for their children, but there is still an important distinction: this is when the author is known for works targeting older audiences, and not written specifically with the author's child or children in mind. Compare to PromotedFanboy, when the actor or actress partakes in a work because they were a fan of the franchise or company before getting the role.

* ''Franchise/DragonBall'': In the Latin American Spanish dub of ''Dragon Ball'', Creator/MarioCastaneda accepted the role of (adult) Goku after being convinced by his son Arturo (Mario actually had rejected the role when it was first offered by Gloria Rocha, the dub's director at the time). Two decades later, [[PromotedFanboy Arturo became the voice of Whis]] and is still proud of his father's work.

* Mette Holm, who's one of only an extremely few professional Japanese translators in Denmark, has almost only translated literature with an adult audience, for example Creator/HarukiMurakami. She has generally refused to translate {{shonen}} manga, citing the mainstream titles as [[QuirkyWork too weird for her taste]] and [[FamilyUnfriendlyViolence unnecessarily violent]]. [[note]]Because of that, most manga released in Denmark are based on German translations[[/note]] However, she was willing to translate the {{shojo}} manga ''Kare First Love'' since she believed that it's themes could appeal to and be relevant for her own teenage daughters.

* ''Literature/DiaryOfAWimpyKidDiperOverlode'': Inverted. Mackie wants Löded Diper's first album to be free of swear words so that his mom can enjoy it.

* A variant: Wrestling/ShawnMichaels apparently did the [=SummerSlam=] 2002 Street Fight match with Wrestling/TripleH in order to show his son (who was 2 at the time) what his dad used to do before he was born (up to that point Shawn had been retired from ring action due to a serious back injury suffered at the 1998 Royal Rumble). You can see him wave into the camera as he enters the ring, presumably to his son who was watching from home. It was intended to be a one-off but afterwards, he found his back was able to handle the rigors of wrestling once more and continued his career all the way up to 2010's [=WrestleMania=] XXV

** Likewise, Creator/PeterCapaldi might not have taken the role of the Twelfth Doctor because of his trope (his daughter being a bit too old for it to apply), but it did allow him to appear in something family-friendly after a career best known for edgy productions such as the F-bomb-filled ''Series/TheThickOfIt''. Since becoming the Doctor, Capaldi has generally stuck to appearing in family-friendly fare when not filming the show, such as ''Film/{{Paddington}}'' and its sequel.
