"I feel like anything important will be divisive"
She's absolutely right
I don’t even know this lady, but what she said for this clip was 💯 right
she's using the wrong word divisive separates people, but the controversy separates the wrong from the right there may be a better were there probably is a better word .
@@8Platinum8she used the word right lol, pull up a dictionary
@@beef8wow youre so educated and funny
@@8Platinum8you’re the worst type of person. 🤦♂️ And you do need to pull up a dictionary.
She's earned every right to express how she feels, her mom was horrific. For her to die & never be able to harm her again was probably a huge relief & closure she needed.
My thoughts exactly!!!!
Having experienced a terrible mother myself, I totally understand where Jeanette is coming from
What did her Mum do to her?
@@gaylechristensen6285i see your point but is it considered a "wrong" to feel a sense of relief when a force like that is gone from your life? if she played an active part in her moms death i think the two wrongs dont make a right phrase applies more. not trying to argue just curious on your perspective lol
@@Hi-vr3kdthere's absolutely nothing wrong with the relief she feels. her mother was insane.
"If people wanted me to write fondly of them, they should have behaved better."
-Anne Lamott
Omg never heard of this quote! I LOVE it! Thanks for mentioning it its perfect!
I love this
I’ve never heard of that quote, but I like it. Treating people poorly results in unfortunate consequences. Debra AKA Jennette’s Mom was wrong and unapologetic and what she’d done to Jennette was unforgivable. Jennette’s not obligated to be an actress or country singer, she can be anything she wants to be.
That part.
RIGHT!!!
she is just so well spoken i wish i could talk like she does
my sister and i actually talk like her pretty similar actually, i recommend looking at new words in dictionaries and reading! it can help out your vocabulary and the way you talk to sound more mature!
Teach me
Not only that but she has had a lot of therapy 🥲, she needed it and she has said in other clips/interviews that the therapy is something that she wish she had sooner but didn't know how to get it really.. 👀 (which i totally understand, as most really young kids don't know about it when having a bad parent around).
She is better off now, i hope she can continue with her life journey in her own way with her own decisions.
Creating her own happiness, love and peace for herself!! 🫂🙏🏻🙌🏼
She has to be able to defend that insane title lol
vocab tip: stop saying really or like
“Did you URN it” ahaha
was looking for this comment😂
@@mispralis I guess you can call me a pundertaker
Literally busted out laughing when she said that and saw the Urn on the book. 💀💀💀
So dead😂😂
Perfect
😂😂😂
The audiobook of I’m Glad My Mom Died is incredible. Jeanette McCurdy exposes the truth about a wound many of us have.
I'm listening to it now and really enjoying it!
I need to read the book 😔
she choked up once... and left it in. i really loved that, it made me cry too
Never occurred to me there'd be an audio book.
Yes, and it's read by her, that adds extra value to the experience
The intelligence in her responses is beautiful
she puts her sentences together like tom brady very eloquent and intelligent
@@GregoryAlanBaileygamereviewsis Tom Brady known for being well-spoken? I don't know much about him
@@alioh7615 I've always thought so.
I'm 52 this year and I just now realized that my mom is a mean mother. She was good to friends but not to me or my sisters. We mostly laugh but it was through telling our stories to our children that we , my sisters and I, have revealed the level of meanness as abuse.
@leahjagger1309 ❤
Blessings on your Journey 💜🙏🏽🕊️
Sounds like she was narcissist.
But that’s your MOM! She is a parent who is a female and is therefore infallible and practically holy!
@@hididdleydee yo r u the mom? If not then definitely one of those folks that makes such people confused and take such long time to realise that they were abused
I had a friend who shamed me for the way I spoke about my abusive parent. I tried to explain to them that the mistreatment occurred behind closed doors, when no one was watching or listening. They didn’t believe me. It hurt me to know that even when I spoke the truth, it would be seen as me being an ungrateful child.
I understand. ♥️
Same for me. I feel u
You really need to sorta put yourself in their shoes when it comes to those situations. How would you have responded if what they went through happened to you? Would you consider it to be how you would have wanted to be treated? Not to mention that trauma may cause someone to have clouded judgement until as late as adulthood, when they finally realize that maybe what they experienced growing up may not have been okay
People just don’t understand when they don’t see the real person behind closed doors. I understand and I’m sorry you went through that as a child.
I had a ex husband that did this he was one way to others and different behind closed doors. It can affect your mental health like no other.
As someone who has an emotionally abusive parent I can relate 😭😭😭. Also people tend to have a harder time accepting it if it's not such a black and white situation where sometimes the parent was actually good and showed up for you. Like she's still in my life but I definitely have boundaries and I live far away from her for a reason.
She’s so well-spoken
Jennette had every right to express her feelings. Her mother and Dan Schneider were 2 horrible people who made her life miserable and she deserves to spend her future unharmed by them. That book was an emotional rollercoaster knowing what she’s been through.
One was just about as bad as the other one was
We love drew barrymore and Jeannette McCurdy
Update: We do not love Drew Barrymore
@@HasblockOf course we love Drew Barrymore!
@@Hasblockdrew hasn’t even done anything bad
@@KaylaaaReneecrossing the picket in a strike is bad.
@@hyenagore2982 ya acting like she’s the only one that kept working thousands of people did.
I feel like the people who don’t quite understand the title should wonder what made her write such a powerful statement before judging her.
Because you’ve got to have very strong reasons to be glad your mom died. No one says that jokingly.
You do not owe an abuser anything, even your love and respect.
I love her so much. So mature, stunning, and I can sense an extreme amount of intelligence by the way she speaks.
This woman is incredible seriously she handles everything with grace and compassion
"did you earn it?" While circling an urn is just👌
Came here to say this exact thing 😂
I literally just made a comment saying the same thing 😂
I feel like Drew is the perfect person to interview her for this
Such a smart woman
Drew Barrymore is so considerate and I love the questions she asks in her interviews.
Well Drew is an expert on this topic too sadly.
@@MrStGeorgeIllawarrashe knows exactly what Jeanette is going through, since she lived it herself
You can see where Drew just wants to hold Jeanette and cry. For both of them too. Then laugh about it after.
@@madamDOOM105 agree plus she gets it, since it’s her story and millions of others before and now
How did the questions make you feel?
So true. That’s why speaking boldly .. is BOLD. Bc you understand that the reality of saying big things comes will come with big opinions 🤷🏻♀️ That’s just the world. Good for her.
Love that final answer. Anything worth saying is often decisive because it shows there’s a convo to be had there.
I am very happy for the people that don’t get the title because it means they have not experienced that kind of parental betrayal❤ I understood it and I’m glad that she has found some humor in her pain
People get the title it's just why waste time writing a book about being happy and relieved your mom is dead I mean it's not like its gonna help her heal it's nothing but a hatred book and the only thing she really accomplished is not forgiving her moms actions she would rather hold on to it and write a book about being happy that she is dead than just letting it go and forgive its pathetic
@@lightning13clair29You can't assume it didn't help her heal. She had to revisit and process her experiences (the book is basically a memoir) to adequately express them so there likely was a lot of healing involved. And no one is owed forgiveness. Also, ultimately, if you can make a lot of money from a terrible thing that happened to you while also making other victims of abuse feel seen and heard, why wouldn't you?
Writing can be really cathartic, especially if you can write down emotions as you feel them. Irl you can't always express how you feel so no wonder you need to vent in a safe (like writing it down).
Forgiveness can only come when you can let go of the emotion. After a life time of abuse it's no wonder she can't and she doesn't have to.
@@lightning13clair29did you even read her book? There’s no part of it where she talks about being happy her mom died. You get to the end and she’s at the beginning stages of realizing her mom was abusive.
@@lightning13clair29 Not everyone deserves to be forgiven.
She was so real for naming it that
Jenette is far beyond her years! So incredibly wise and intelligent and eloquent with her words. Cheers to both her and Drew for coming out on the other side of turmoil and doing something amazing with your life!🎉
Love Jeanette and Drew there real honesty about there childhood and adulthood and controlling parents and life lessons in life.
Their
"If it's not divisive, there's probably no new conversation to have there.
Very insightful.
People that have only ever experienced a loving home with loving parents will not understand the roller coaster of emotions it is to have an abusive parent, loving them because you feel obligated guilty because you hate them the mix of both and the trauma response of comedy and detachment to cope.
I think I can imagine how horrible it must be to have parents like that, but not know exactly how it feels. What I will never understand is how parents can be that way towards their own children. Why have kids at all if you're not going to love or care about them, and be complete monsters to a child?
@@galloeUnfortunately some people like to couse pain.
this is so true
I'm happy she's speaking the truth.🎉
Only someone who has experienced the same or similar with their mothers will understand.
Agreed. I’m sure the both of them have a lot to relate with each other about both having bad mothers.
she’s genuinely so beautiful
People seeing the title as 'joking " can't ever grasp the trauma caused by an abusive mother
I stand for it! Call the generational trauma OUT! Covert narcissists need to be called out! I dont know if she was considered the the golden child or the scapegoat or a mixture of both but she spoke her truth and I bet she mentally feels GREAT!!
That's not what generational trauma means. This is parental abuse. Not the same thing at all.
💯💯💯💯
She was the meal ticket, her mom basically forced her into the industry so she the mom could benefit. I'm sure it is in the book but her mom chastised her about something explicit being leaked in an email and then had the nerve to ask for money for a new fridge at the end of the letter.
@@hardcorenativextremeI thought it was her mom finding out she was dating some guy then her saying something inappropriate about it and disowning her before asking for money for a new fridge?
This book is on spotify included in premium. if anyone is looking to hear it.
Jeanette looks so relaxed and peaceful now ❤ after all she has been through, she deserves closure and peace
Agreed
Jeanette is golden. Her book and true spirit really say alot about her experiences and journey ❤ soo worth the read if its something that you resonate with😊
One of my favorite books! The section on “No more Bette Midler” hit home for me. I grieved with her here. One of the few times my mother showed she was human she sang The Rose at Karaoke. But she has chosen a cult over me and my sister and we probably won’t even know when she dies. Honestly life is better without her 100%. But there is still grief.
it’s her story… her relationship with her mom… if that didn’t go well… she have every right to express itx
Such an incredible book. I hope we see more writing from her - she's great at it.
Her book was SO well written and i love that she narrated the audio
I read the book in a day, it was so good
If she wrote a sequel to it would it be about a certain creator? 😂 (All jokes aside maybe that would be a good read too because she would have her focus on him instead of her mom)
I have her book on my shelf ive never regretted buying or reading it it was so eye opening weirdly relatable in a very strange way because her situation was so unique to her and her life specifically but it still managed to come across in a beautiful way it feels like it was easy to comprehend
Such a good book, Jennette is an amazing author.
She has such an endearing smile.
I love seeing these two together. They have both done so much and healed so well considering what they went through.
It needs to be said. Some people have parents that hate them. It's a fact
That might be true. But this situation was different. At least I didn't read in this book exactly that her mum hated her. She was ill and controlling. Abusive yes. But hate? It was more complicated.
*most people
@@charlie7694Weird to defend someone like this for no reason?
@@chuck7024 I didn’t defend her. Just stating the facts. Read the book.
Jeanette is so amazingly beautiful because she has that great sense of beauty that we all don’t actually see in ourselves to be like that but I’m so grateful for how she treats herself with all of the kindness that she brings out to other people
She’s so beautiful
I just wanna hug her she deserved better
Ditto
I love janette mccurdy she is such a sweet person
❤❤❤❤. Strong and wise young woman. Beautiful
I’ve been a big fan of hers for a long time she’s such a well spoken, strong and unbelievable woman. Jeanette mccurdy deserves nothing but success, love and respect. Not to mention she’s beautiful, Total package for sure.
She’s so well spoken
God Bless U Jeannette! U Go Girl Speak Your Truth!!😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love Jeanette she’s an amazing comic actress…….
You mean author? She quit acting in 2017
The One Person who can Truly connect with Drew. Serendipitous, to say the least. 😌
I love her so much! I grew up I Carly obviously so she was like this huge part of my childhood but the book really made me fall in love with who she is as a person as an intellectual as a voice for so many people that could’ve formulate these thoughts or put them in the page. The audiobook being read by her just made it so much more personal and better too. And she really made us all dig into our relationships with family and childhood traumas also made us dig into how we treat celebrities especially child stars if anyone has an eating disorder I think she touched on so much there as well in such an honest and open way. Thank you Jeanette for your wonderful book and insights and perspectives ❤
I’m sure a lot of people can relate to not being sad about someone abusive in their life passing away. Sometimes it’s a huge relief. But it’s not always polite to say that or some people can’t relate to the experience so they think you’re being horrible.
I used to say it all the time, it felt ugly but I truly felt it was the only way I'd feel relief, even if it came with tremendous hurt. 6 months ago my mother had a life threatening event and tried to "apologize" after 20 yrs of nastiness. As hard as it was, I'm glad I didn't give in, even if it meant her dying without closure. She lived and has not changed as a person. After a few months, I finally realized the closure had to come from within. Not giving in, and putting myself first, allowed me to finally grieve the loss of her in my life and it changed everything. I don't wish ill on her at all these days. Sorry for the rant. 😬🙃
My step dad is currently alive and I, along with about 100 other people in my area wish he wasn't.
I really understand that they went through having stage mothers who were more narcissistic than real parents, and I feel so sorry that they were abused in the process. I can't relate because I had the best mom who passed away over 2 years ago, and I STILL cry almost every day I miss her so much!
She’s so well spoken, I’m so glad she’s doing so much better now.
Something about her. Seems like a beautiful soul. Cheering for her
The ones who have experienced parental abuse definitely get it. And agree.
"..And how does it make you feel" love Drew ❤
Her intelligence never ceases to amaze me. She is wise beyond her years.
She was my favorite on iCarly. I loved her style. I had the same Vans as her and the same Abbey Dawn hoodie also.
As someone who was raised in a cult, was treated literally like Cinderella... and was called the problem child for my mental health problems dueeeee to birthgiver I am alll here for Jeanette 100%
Having experienced a narcissistic mother, but NOWHERE near what Jenette went through, i get the title of her book.
If you don't grow up with your parent(s) being your first bully(ies), then it's a lil harder to understand.
Her book was amazingly written, set up, everything. I most definitely will be listening to her book again at some point
I didnt mean to dislike 😢I was just trying to expand the comment to read the rest 🤦🏻♀️
Nah we understand she was abused and traumatized what we don't understand is why she thinks writing a book about being happy and relieved that her mom is dead is gonna help her heal in anyway cause it ain't there is nothing beautiful about being happy that someone is dead that's creepy as hell and it's obvious that she hasn't forgiven her mother because if she really did she wouldn't have wrote the book
@lightning13clair29 it seems like maybe you've had a really nice life since you cant relate enough to understand the relief someone might feel from their abuser never being able to hurt them again, and that's great, but I don't think it's fair for you to go to comment after comment and attack the people who do understand it.
Her journey is crazy glad she can tell her story
Had a friend in 8th grade who made it onto a popular NBC sitcom in the early 90s. We were about 11 yrs old, and I never ever saw him gain after about 2 yrs. His uncle was my basketball coach, and he just said that his parents literally had been waiting for this since he was born. HE was their golden goose!
My boyfriends mom was quite upset that I gifted him this book for Christmas 🤣
Is she a bad mom? Or did you just like the book and want your bf to read it?
😂😂😂😂😂
Drew, you've garnered such a genuine, sympathetic audience because of your stance on compassion and community. Big Picture Community needs you, don't sacrifice the whole for the few. Your staff will survive and your writer's deserve that same community from you. Don't do this. This announcement has already muddied your character and costs you the people's trust but pivoting and taking accountability for abandoning your fellow artists in their most difficult time can maybe regain people's respect for you. It's not too late, don't let us down. You've been an ally to many communities, don't be a trader to the community who directly helps carry you.
Stay on the right side of history Drew.
Well said!
@@madebyboysI’m sorry, I feel like I’ve missed something important here, what is she doing that’s wrong? Please and thank you.
I like Jennette. ”Anything worth saying is probably going to be divisive." What a quote.
I have a new found respect for her. My heart goes out to her for having to endure all that at such a young age.
You know how much you gotta suck as a parent for your child to dedicate a book in dishonor of you
Everyone hating on the title of the book:
“Not everyone is lucky to get a mother like yours.” - Lydia, TWD
She EARNED it this was a trigger for me! Her story to tell! Hollywood truly changes people for good or bad!
I admire Jennette McCurdy, her book is amazing ❤
The people judging her have no idea what abuse from a parent feels like. She was emotionally, physically and sexually abused by her Mom. A parent is supposed to protect you and love you. Not abuse you to the point you’re glad they’re finally dead. You have every right to feel this way if you were abused by your parents.
Esp if they made you feel like you wanted to be dead. It would literally be a survival type feeling at that point.
Exactly!
I have a narcissistic mother and I got her book as soon as it came out. I love the title and it was perfectly chosen. She’s hitting the nail on the head that anyone who has experienced parental abuse will immediately understand, and if you don’t understand, just read the book and learn something
She was smart titling the book that. It made people more intrigued in why she would name it and what her life was really like growing up. Love Jennette and how strong she is
I am extremely happy with the title she went with. It's exactly how I feel about my dad, like she said people with parental abuse would understand. When I first heard the title I immediately felt SO seen and understood, it was a very important moment for many I think.
Trauma comedy, is my favorite kind.
Traumedy
I’m a reader rather than an audio book listener. But this Jeanette’s book and Trevor Noah’s I had to listen to. Far more powerful and impactful when heard in their own voices.
👏👏👏
BEST TITLE EVER! Like she said especially if you relate to this book!
she preached with the title because everyone else is afraid to publicly say it but its a thought we all briefly can relate to or completely understand by personal depth experience
i read every word of the book with relief i felt the same (and im not a reader regrettably) this is a title for any and every reader
I’m on the same title and can’t wait to read this book ❤
“Did you urn it?”
I was looking for a comment on this lol
That title alone without reading the book let me know that I was not alone with my deep-rooted thoughts of my mom I have. I let those thoughts stay inside me, scared to be judged for thinking badly of a dead women. Her title freed me of that.
Her book was great, I hope she writes more in the future.
I know how u feel Brilliant title ..the pain is there in the name for all to see
It's the abuse. If you've never been badly abused by a parent then you don't understand that someone can be relieved to know they never have to be abused by them again.
Great conversation. And she’s totally right. I’m about to start her book. Excited to read it
She’s so eloquent and sharp. I’m so glad she was finally able to speak her truth. ❤
Grateful that Drew made the right decision and decided not to continue the show until the strike is over! I know it took a second to get it right, but I appreciate it!
Experience with that particular area isn't really spoken about 😢
No it isn’t. When childhood trauma continues into adulthood trauma I’m OUT! I have zero contact with my mother.
Drew Barrymore knows how to deliver hard hitting questions like “have you always had a sense of humor”
She been through a lot . Poor girl😢
Did you urn it ? 😂
love the title of this book and still waiting for my mum to die 😂😂😂😂😂
She is an extremely intelligent and well-spoken young woman. I completely understand why she chose the title she did for her book.
I had a crush on her as Sam, and now I love her even more
