I just say it with objectivity,&#8221; he said. &#8220;And yet I wouldn&#8217;t have traded him for the world. I got so many gifts from him, so many.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Shaun told People that growing up in the spotlight wasn\u2019t all glitz and glam.<\/p>\n<p>He reflected on his own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/entertainment\/black-rabbit-star-jason-bateman-says-child-stardom-nearly-killed-hollywood-career\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">childhood in the spotlight<\/a> with his famous parents \u2014 &#8220;W.C. Fields and Me&#8221; star Jack and Oscar winner Shirley Jones.<\/p>\n<p>Shaun admitted the world saw a picture-perfect Hollywood couple, but the reality at home was drastically different.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Who they really are is not how they&#8217;re perceived by the public anyway. The public has an idea of who they are,&#8221; Shaun said. &#8220;If you grow up in a family of show folk, everything is very presentational.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Behind the scenes, Shaun said his father was largely absent during his formative years.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t get the dad who went to my Little League games or took me on camping trips or any of that stuff. My mom did,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Still, Shirley, best known for her role on &#8220;The Partridge Family&#8221; \u2014 was often pulled away by her own career.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My mom showed up for a lot of that stuff, but she was also gone a lot. She was making movies around the world,&#8221; he shared.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think one of the reasons she took \u2018The Partridge Family\u2019 job is because she wanted to be close to home.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Jack and Shirley married in 1956 and divorced in 1975.<\/p>\n<p>Shaun said he essentially raised himself while his parents were busy with their careers.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/entertainment\/david-cassidys-final-months-former-teen-idol-was-terrified-of-suffering-from-dementia-was-haunted-by-his-fathers-death\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>DAVID CASSIDY&#8217;S FINAL MONTHS: FORMER TEEN IDOL WAS TERRIFIED OF SUFFERING FROM DEMENTIA, WAS HAUNTED BY HIS FATHER&#8217;S DEATH<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have a whole friend group, kids, we were like Peanuts,&#8221; Shaun told People, as he referenced the iconic comic strip. &#8220;The parents weren\u2019t around.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Shaun found comfort with other Hollywood kids who were navigating the same chaotic lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And yet all of us had similar backgrounds,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;I mean, Carrie Fisher was two doors down, and she was a good pal of mine.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We all got through it with challenges, for sure.
