The fact that they empowered her to speak up rather than them coming into the scene says a lot itself !!!

[@bigbulk688]

In all honesty, she's just 22. Let's give her a decade and see if the story remains consistent. We've seen a lot of child actors gushing over their parent's dedication and then a decade later Brittany Spears comes out with the truth.

[@sriv418]

​@@bigbulk688what truth

[@ygwunholy3732]

​@@bigbulk688Even if she is 22 or 35 her parents are her parents. That does not mean her parents cannot be loving and caring. Does not mean they will let their Daughter do a scene where she is uncomfortable or say something that she is not ok saying.

People always complain about how the industry ruined so many child actors ... Which is true but the main people who ruined those child actors are their own parents who never stood up for them or encouraged them enough.. Good parents would never just sit and watch while their child gets exploited by an industry ...

[@nidhikochar8898]

Her voice ..soo soothing

[@Mwaryam150]

This is a blessing that you have such parents. My mother has passed away and my dad always think about himself and put us down. He treats us like his enemy, always gossiping behind us to each other and has never been satisfied with us doesn’t matter what we have done, has never seen our sacrifices, selfish and judgmental.

​@@vroy2030Indian parents are nothing like how she described, they by large are more obsessed with how society perceives them than their children's comfort or happiness.
