When you visit Lisa Whelchel's Wikipedia page, there is no birth date and no early history listed! Why is she hiding her past? Mindy Cohen, make it make sense.
Because she's a back stabbing bitch!

OP, that is officially the rule on Wikipedia. You cannot add a person’s age. They’re still editing one page after another taking them off.

I edit regularly on Wikipedia and the community on there has become hardcore about not allowing birthdates in biographies of living persons without reliable sources. Their rationale is that it violates the subject's privacy. However, if the birthdate has been widely-documented and there are reliable news, book, or web sources to support it, it can be included.
A lot of what qualifies as "reliable" ends up being disputed amongst editors, but, IMDb, for example, is never allowed as a reliable source because it can be altered by IMDb users. Even public birth records can be dicey because some editors will point out that you can't confirm whether or not the record is attributed to the subject of the article, or if it's just a record of someone who was born on the same day with the same name.

I'd love to read an interview with Haven or one of the others to see how they turned out after all those years of "creative correction." Especially Haven, so she could confirm or deny if she used to ask her mom for those 'pankings.

Here ya' go, R22. Haven has a podcast (because of course) on which Lisa has guested a couple times, and in one of them, they spoke about parenting & discipline. At one point, Haven said she does not spank her kids to which Lisa replied, "Good! I'm glad you don't. I'd have to spank you if you spanked my grandchildren!" which made laugh thinking back to Creative Correction. In any case, Haven seems to have turned out okay & they seem to have a great relationship.

Lisa remarried to an actor a few years back. I seem to recall he's good looking and Lisa has become more new-agey/liberal in her Christianity. Considering she's attempting to revitalize her acting career in L.A. it makes sense that she tone it down as she doesn't appear interested in going the Kirk Cameron Christian tv route.

Nah, R35, Lisa's no skinnier than she was a few years ago. Her weight has remained pretty consistent over the past five years, or so (since that Collectors Call show started). If there's an FOL alum getting "the jab", it's Mindy Cohn. She's lost a significant amount of weight over the past two years.

I've noticed over the last few years that politicians, journalists, and others involved in the political sphere have estimated birth years, likely based on graduation dates. Lots of "1978/79," "1999/2000, etc." I don't recall this from, say 5 or more years ago.

Oh, you do, R60?? What a load of horseshit, you're just rehashing the rumor about Kim Fields & her sister. Justice was born December 28, 1984 -- when the show was on a 2-3 week hiatus for Christmas & New Years. Go back & look at the episodes filmed in 1984, the 5th season. Lisa was thinner than she'd been since S1.

It's only a guess that it was Lisa. Mindy never named names.
Lisa, Mindy and Nancy appeared on the Drew Barrymore show last year to celebrate Drew's birthday, and there appeared to be zero animosity between any of them, though Nancy was sitting in the middle. In fact, they looked more uncomfortable at Drew as she went on and on about how profound Facts of Life was to her.
Kim wasn't there, though. But she could have been filming The Upshaw's.
Mindy also said the reboot betrayal happened during the pandemic as everyone was at home, and they conducted it by zoom, but wasn't everyone more able to meet in public in December 2021 when the All-star live event took place? Which gave Norman the idea to do the reboot in the first place?

Do give credit where credit is due, R65! It was Joan Rivers who coined "The Fats of Life"...to mock a bunch of teenage girls...when there plenty of other vapid cunts to make fun of in the 1980s.

R66, the falling out happened in early 2022, after the "Live in front of a Studio Audience" in December 2021. There had been such a positive response to "Live", Norman Lear's company wanted to explore a reboot, or limited-run reunion. A writer was hired & the gals all zoomed together with the writer, throwing around ideas, but it wasn't really going anywhere. There were no good ideas. Mindy even said that during an interview a few months prior to the infamous "Greedy Bitch" interview -- the discussions about a reboot were going nowhere. That's when the "Greedy Bitch" supposedly pulled an end-around and went to Lear's company with an idea for just her character.
