Representatives of the three of the child stars – Nolan Gould, 13, who plays Ty Burrell and Julie Bowen’s son Luke; Ariel Winter, 14, who plays middle daughter Alex; and Rico Rodriguez, 13, who plays Sofia Vergara’s sophisticated son Manny – have banned together like the adult actors in negotiating for uniform salary raises.

Sarah Hyland, 21, who plays Haley – the oldest daughter of the Dunhpy’s, will also renegotiate her contract but already has a higher salary than her younger co-stars because she has more acting experience on shows like One Life to Live and Lipstick Jungle.

Aubrey Anderson-Emmons, 5, who plays the adopted daughter of Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Eric Stonestreet, will most likely not receive a higher raise because she only joined the cast last season.

Both representatives for the actors and representatives of 20th TV declined to comment.
