the Grammy award-winning artist filed for a conservatorship of her troubled child, claiming he would spend all of his money on drugs.In a 2014 interview with ET, Allman said he felt “shunned” by his famous mother and his stepbrother Chaz Bono.“When you go to boarding school at 7 years old, it’s kind of hard to feel like you’re not being shunned,” he explained. “But I’m at an age where I’m making peace with it because you just have to.

But I still … it doesn’t mean it’s right. It’s still wrong to do that.”While talking to ET’s Rob Marciano, Allman also revealed he was buying drugs before he was even a teenager during breaks from school.“I would come home on the weekend and me and my friends would go up to Harlem and get into all kinds of trouble.

It’s actually shocking to think about myself at like 11 years old buying drugs in Harlem,” he recalled. “It’s pretty crazy. It seemed normal at the time.”Allman also reflected on his childhood relationship with his stepbrother. “We were close.

I think what happened was Chaz went off to a performing arts school back east and I went off back east as well, later to prep school, and so from there we kind of took different paths.
