      My mom were so close growing up. I mean so close, I would sit on the toilet or floor of the bathroom while she showered, sometimes she’d take me to work worth her during her overnight shift and I’d sleep in the break room. It wasn’t until before her death I started to piece together, the abuse and terrible things she did my entire childhood. And it wasn’t until after she died, I learned about all of her lies and hated her. With time that’s passed, I’ve learned to forgive most of what she’s done. But if given the choice to bring her back to life, I wouldn’t.

      It’s because she’s forgiven herself and it shows. The more you heal, the less you become defensive because you’ve already had that conversation with yourself. It shows how big of a person she is. I am so proud of her and I don’t even know her.

Our Creator, The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is mighty, He doesn’t need a woman to beget a son, He is God.

      So, it’s time to confess that Lord Jesus Christ is the Lord and to believe that He died and rose from the grave after three days and you shall be saved if you only obey Him by praying, worshipping, praising, reading the Bible and living holy and righteously according to the Bible. You have to endure until the end, carry your cross daily and build your relationship with God by following Lord Jesus daily until the end. You must never renounce your faith in The Lord Jesus Christ, there’s hell awaiting those who reject/deny Lord Jesus Christ and those who continue living sinfully, even the Christians who don’t want to repent will face the same fate, so please repent beloved people, in Lord Jesus Christ’s mighty and precious Name, Amen.

    As a grown victim of narcissistic abuse from a parent, I applaud her for speaking her truth. Society has such a big emphasis on loving your parents unconditionally but that’s pretty much impossible when one or both parents have abused you in any way. It changes the make-up of your brain, as when you’re a child you’re constantly absorbing information and learning how to survive in your environment. When the home is not a safe environment, that can have detrimental consequences later in teenhood and adulthood. Good for her.

      The ‘Creator’ was Dan Schneider. It’s becoming more widely known that he sexually abused her and Ariana Grande, as well as other child actors on other Nickelodeon shows he wrote and produced. It was later that Nickelodeon finally cut ties with him due to allegations. Ariana Grande will not speak out about the abuse but others have. The $300k was so that she wouldn’t out him openly and directly, but as she said she turned it down and has already implicated him and his abuse on her Twitter.

    I totally relate to her. I wasn't a child actor, but my mom projected all of her own insecurities on me. She was a bully my entire life. But then she would love bomb me maybe twice a year telling me how amazing I am. I almost wish she never did that, because it was hard to actually feel my true feelings towards her without being swayed by those handful of times she was overly nice. It took me until I was 23 to realize I was not treated like a normal child should be treated. I would stand by her side for years after my brother emancipated himself at 16 and hasn't talked to her in over 10 years now. Therapy and being treated with kindness and respect from my friends and even just the general public made me realize she was not normal. Why are strangers at starbucks being nicer to me than my mom? Why are coworkers asking how I am but my mom hasnt called me in 8 months? She didn't have a husband to nag at or complain about, so she made her kids her enemy. She treated us like a woman treats her husband that she can't stand, she couldn't wait for us to leave. I think when my mom passes, there will be grief there for the mom I wish I had and saw glimpses of once in a blue moon, but there will be a huge sense of relief and I'll feel like I can breathe for once in my life.

      I relate to you! My mom was very manipulative and mentally abusive. Told me before that she wished she had aborted me. I’m 28 and still don’t have a real relationship with her nor any of my siblings. I’m the youngest of 5. I think when it’s her time to pass on I won’t even be sad. She was never really there she made sure I was well taken care of. But I never got hugs from her as a kid I barely was told that I was loved. I think apart of her feels very guilty how she has treated me because we can go the whole year just about without talking. Mothers day I sent her a text instead of calling because she was always very mean to me and I never thought that she was that great of a mother.. Everyone always wanted my mom to be theirs she put on such a front on how our relationship was to our family and friends. I got the occasional affection from her but maybe a few times a year. Because of my relationship with her and the torment from my siblings and bullying I will be starting therapy very soon. You are not alone. Stay strong!

This isn't always plausible given generational trauma and economic factors, but I am realizing, as I may be a father one day, that the best gift I can give to my child is guided autonomy. Of course they are going to be dependent on me as children- that's just nature. But I can't abuse this power I have because it's for my child's well being- not my own.

    People with great relationships with their parents (good for them) tend to be defensive when other people share their struggles with toxic parents. We should all support her and be glad she was so brave to share her struggles. Wishing her the best of the best.

    I went to one of her meet and greets when I was in middle school. I remember the event was paused and we heard something about her good friend dying (not sure of the legitimacy of that claim). But when it came my turn to meet her, her eyes were bloodshot and she looked like she really didn’t want to be there. At the time I felt a bit let down since I waited a while to see her, but later I realized she shouldn’t have been forced to continue with the signing if something as horrible as that happen mere minutes ago. I can’t imagine everything else she’s been through that’s not in the book, daily instances of abuse and injustice she should never have dealt with as a child. I’m so glad she got the support she deserved and is able to share her story. She’s incredibly brave

    I’m so glad that she’s coming out with this. When I was a child living in an abusive home situation, I loved watching iCarly and Sam & Cat to distract myself. As a kid you do not get the inappropriate jokes, nor do you understand the severity of abuse in child acting. Now this leaves a particularly bitter taste, but I will buy her book as soon as possible to hear her side of the story.

    Her character's mother on ICarly also was abusive, she seemed to be naturally angry and resentful when said mom was brought up in script. Obviously because it was real life for her as well. Glad she's speaking out. Especially about Nickelodeon, there's been a lot of rumors over the years, but none of the child stars have bluntly said what really has happened. And you just know some dark shit is there.

    Kudos to Jennette for speaking out about the trauma she endured as a child. No one should ever have to succumb to such abuse, especially at the hands of their own parent. She speaks so eloquently and thoughfully, and I hope this books helps others realize and work through any similar struggles they are experiencing.
