    This is why I say if Britney ever wanted to tell her story I think Drew would be the most amazing and compassionate person for her to go to. Love Drew Barrymore I have seen many of her movies and have loved all of them. She is a genuine and sweet soul.

      I’ve heard great stories about her behavior off camera. Anna Ortiz from ugly Betty once said when she was a struggling actress/waitress Drew would come in and was kind to everyone and would always tip 100 percent of her bill. I think that says a lot about her. You hear stories of powerful people treating working class people as less than. But she seems to be kind to everyone regardless of their social status.

      Yes! I didn't have a tough childhood, but my daughter did growing up with a single mom barely making ends meet.
      She used to ask me why we had to have it so tough and her cousins could break a toy and have a brand new one that same day. I always felt bad that she couldn't always have things she wanted even as a birthday or Christmas present.
      Later on, when she went off to college she actually thanked me for it all, for being around more rather than working harder to give her things. She still tells me that she feels she learned a lot more about life, budgeting, and being responsible than had I been more well off.

    I love her vulnerability so much. When she’s looking at her childhood home with tears and talking about her loneliness, it made me look at her performance in Grey Gardens with even more admiration because that movie was probably therapeutic yet very hard for her to delve back into those emotions again. She’s always looking to examine her emotions and improve herself, such a beautiful person.

    I was about 14 years old when I read Drew's autobiography and I've felt a connection with her ever since...
    But nothing could have ever made me feel more connected to her than her sentiment about books, just then. Even if I didn't know her life story, that would have given it away, enough: I see your heart, Drew. Only a true reader knows this kind of reverence, and recognizes it for what it is. The most blissful, magical safe space.

      @@JazzyB9481 it's not that simple. You have to make yourself a safe person for your kids to talk to if you ever want them to actually share the deep things in their head. By the time I was in middle school I knew I couldn't talk to my mom about the things I was thinking, because there was so much judgement and shaming if I didn't behave exactly the way she wanted me to. By the time I was in high school I was leading two different lives - the one she saw, and the one my friends saw. There were so many things I was dealing with as a teenager that she will probably never know about, because by the time I was dealing with those things I knew the only true support system I had was my friends, because going to my mom meant more judgment, more shame, and likely losing privileges over stupid things. So yeah, theoretically the answer is "talk to them", but that only works if prior to that you've made yourself someone they can feel safe telling the truth to. Otherwise you're just going to get "I'm fine, I'm okay".

    When Drew got teary eyed about wishing/fantasizing about having a more bonding mother daughter dinner experience made me want to just give her a huge hug and let her know she is not alone in this…

      @@libertygiveme1987 In 1984 my parents committed me when I was 14 years old because they wanted to go overseas and I couldn’t be taken out of school. It was easier for them to pay $3,500 a day to have me institutionalized for nine months. Why do I know the cost? Because my Mom threw it in my face for years, leaving out the part about them using a rehab as a babysitter. I got myself a child advocacy attorney and got myself out of there, then I left home and never went back. Sometimes you have to rescue yourself because nobody else is willing to

    This segment brought me to tears. I too never thought I was going to make it or leave the horrible circumstances I was forced into. Yet I did and I now have the most beautiful life I could have ever dreamed of. Thank you so very much for being so open and vulnerable, reminding me I am not alone xx

    I really didn't know anything about your situation growing up when you were little. I am so happy that you grew up stronger and powerful. And now you're hosting your own show. You're full of so much love in your life. You're not that lonely girl anymore Drew. Now you're that tough survivor. keep the videos coming. I look forward to seeing your heart pour out on these videos every single time.
