Actor Rob Lowe's son experienced a frightening encounter in New York City, receiving a black eye after being mugged at knifepoint. The incident happened because the young man was not paying attention, being engrossed in his phone while out in the Bowery. Lowe had previously advised his son to "keep your head on a swivel" before his night out, an advisory that was dismissed.
This event highlights a common dynamic where children often believe they possess superior judgment. Rob Lowe, known for his roles in "St. Elmo's Fire" and "9-1-1: Lone Star," shares two sons with his wife. While one son, Matthew, pursued law, the other, John Owen, followed a path into entertainment, co-creating and starring with his father in the Netflix comedy "Unstable."
