    It's funny how she seems so serious and down when she was 15 and now that she's 40+ she seems more child like. I think she's way more happy as an adult.

      She now gets to be the free child she never got to be. And a much much better mother to her beautiful daughters (: Who aren't burdened by evil, selfish, uncaring parents who use you as a paycheck. What Drew's parents did to her was child abuse. She is so strong!

      That just blows my mind. That an 8 year old would drink two glasses of champagne. That's so dangerous giving a child that age strong alcohol. What adult would do that? Where was her mom? And before she was even 15 she was doing hard drugs, cocaine. Astonishing. This is the problem with children brought into celebrity/acting at a young age, they don't get to grow up normally. It's a familiar story, Michael Jackson was same and ended up a drug addict.

      @clockwinder2924 4 роки тому +23

      @Julie Lovestrees, Sorry I didn’t mean to offend, but by her own admission she went way beyond a bit of alcohol. Also no, at nine (I wasn’t in high school at that age) my parents actually did keep an eye on my siblings and I if we were at an “adult” party (by that I mean alcohol freely flowing and swimming pools, that can lead to drowning.etc) I wasn’t referring to parties for 15 year olds. I apologise if it makes me uptight to wish to keep a decent amount of supervision on a child that is under ten. (Yes, I know she’s older than that here, it’s not the age I was referring to.) Still, I come more from a place of sadness rather than judgment and I do apologise if it came across as such.
      Also, by homeschooling, I mean that the Barrymores are wealthy, so surely something could have been done about the relentless bullying that Drew referred to. Aren’t our children our most precious people that we must take care of?

    • @clockwinder2924
      @clockwinder2924 4 роки тому +6

      @deekat3279 That’s good, my parents worked too. You don’t have to be wealthy to homeschool, nor do I think it’s necessary. It’s just she said being bullied lead to her drug use. The Barrymores are an acting legacy family, so if she was being bullied, maybe they could of afforded to change her school. Not accusing her mother of this, but who bought her the drugs and alcohol if she didn’t have her own money? Please don’t get me wrong, I’m the same age as Drew and I grew up a big Drew Barrymore fan and I still enjoy her movies. I just remember, even as a child, being shocked that she was allowed to be out behaving like that (because of her self admitted drug addiction,) I don’t judge addicts and I admire how she’s put her life back together, but her parents should have kept a better eye on a child who was only nine years old.

      I mean, what kind of "adult parties" are we talking about? I daresay, if you're at an all adult party full of untrustworthy people doing shady things and you need to worry about your child being unsupervised there, they shouldn't even be there in the first place!
      If you're at, say, a wedding or a housewarming party or cookout or some other type of gathering that might very well have alcohol, that's an "adult party" but you aren't going to hover over your kids. Because almost no parent suspects they need to keep watch out for their child drinking at NINE.
      Did this woman fall short as a parent? Absolutely, inarguably. But I don't think it's negligence for a child to run around having fun at a social gathering.

We all make mistakes and must grow. Its important to be merciful. Jesus said God's merciful. But we have to repent and keep trying. Drew is forgiving too. Maybe mom was suffering mental health issues. Doesn't make it OK. AT ALL and it needs intervention and consequences but there's a difference between recognizing wrong doing and thinking it's our job f poo r of us to punish and judge others. Example. My boyfriend beats me. I must recognize he's abusive and get out. Not stay around and make him understand how bad he is and try to make him fix it or shame him to others or himself.

      Hardly vicious, let's not exaggerate.

Who wouldn't be angry to see that? If you want to see vicious watch Diane Sawyer interview a lone, teenaged Britney Spears in the early 2000s

"I went my way and she went her way" is not how you talk about your verrrry underage child , that's how you speak about a grown adult friend, who let's their child roam free at a party w strangers and drugs and alcohol all over the place.

    I can’t understand how mature she was at 15 and younger compared to how she acts on her show now!

    the way her face lights up a little when oprah brings up E.T. , which drew has mentioned over the years were good memories 😢

    I adore Drew Barrymore she changed her life around got clean and focused on her acting career and doing fantastic today. Thank God ! She didn't end up one of those Hollywood casualties like so many other young stars.

    In 2021 she admitted she was totally clean for 2 years. In all of her interviews as a pre-teen and teen she was high in everyone of them.
