The Shue family in general are an interesting topic when it comes to entertainment. Both Andrew Shue and his sister Elisabeth were child actors, and both of them appeared in 80s cult hit 'The Karate Kid.' When they got a bit older, both of them completely walked away from the acting profession, too. We're sure their parents were really thrilled after all the money we presume they spent putting them both through acting school!
Shue had a number of roles as a child actor before starring in 'Melrose Place' as a young adult, where he made many a teenage girl swoon. He never felt comfortable with the work though, and instead went into professional sports for a while, playing soccer during the 1990s in Zimbabwe and then returning to the USA to play for Los Angeles Galaxy. An injury put an end to that, so he went into business and set up a website called 'CafeMom,' which contains forums which dispense parenting advice and other women's interest issues.
