      Mama.Irish This makes me think so much about a girl I grew up with.... her mother always had her in commercial and dance competitions and pageants... this girl had trouble hanging out with us other kids, and this continued into high school and beyond. Today she’s famous in her own way and works her life away in high power jobs, but inside she seems empty and forever trying to impress mommy....and mommy is only ever happy when daughter looks perfect and has the perfect looking life.
      This really makes me wonder, what kind of childhood/ circumstances causes someone to be this kind of parent???? Clearly some kind of need for attention and status...... just interesting that the child gets pushed into the spotlight....

      She's got all the hallmarks of a narcissistic personality, so I doubt she ever made excuses, because in her mind, she never did anything wrong. If anyone questioned her, she would either charm them (if she wanted something from them) or cut them down and discard them (if they offered nothing). I mean, she's always right, right?
      That is so sad about your friend. It's why I can't even with the show "Toddlers and Tiaras", because it's encouraging this kind of self-involved parenting. Unfortunately, this is a generational problem. Narcissistic parents breed narcissistic kids, who become narcissistic parents, ad infinitum. It takes some insight into yourself, and usually a loving adult in their life, to break the chains. Olga, by being the scapegoat in their family dynamic, was tragically the "lucky" one. It's the scapegoats who tend to escape the enmeshment and go on to live a freer life.

    I was two when Natalie died, and one of my earliest memories is of my parents speculating about what had happened. They never believed her death was accidental, nor do I. What I didn't know, however, was that her mother was so abusive and domineering. I'm an animal lover myself, and I can't imagine having someone (especially a parent!) pull the wings off a butterfly in order to make a child cry. Something like that would traumatize me now, let alone when I was a child!

Then years later when my mother was pregnant with me she bought a book about Natalie and when she started reading she saw her being called Natasha, she already knew that was her birth name but it made her think about how much she liked it and so I was named natasha.

      I do too! I watched all of Natalie Woods movies over and over again ... Have always adored Natalie , and even named my 2 nd daughter , third child after her. She was so beautiful and had such lovely ,perfect features .❤️ My personal favorite was Love with the Proper Stranger with Steve McQueen, who I also adored all my life. My 2nd favorite is Splendor in The Grass ... so poignant, esp the ending which I cry at every time I watch it.😢

    Her Mom's sun sign was an Aquarius, her dad's was a Scorpio, and Natalie was a Cancer. This families story is such a great example of the shadow archetypes within Astrology. Will have to look deeper at their dynamics. Especially, this fear of water in her mother's chart. Great video Stephanie! 🤩

    As a mom, this must have been difficult for Stephanie to make. I find it hard to listen to the details of this vile mother's abuse of all of her children. It seems like the sisters genuinely cared about each other despite their twisted mother's behaviour which could easily have driven a wedge between them.

    I was a child when she died but I remember reading everything I could on her death back then. Of course there was only tabloids like the Enquirer or Star so I never what was true. She reminded me so much of my aunt. Just with this one video, I have learned so many interesting things about her family and childhood. I knew she had a fear of water but never knew this had been ingrained in her by her mother and why. Love your in depth studies and love hearing your voice telling the story.

    Okay so, this comment has been a long time coming but this video finally inspired me to write it! I was born in and live in Santa Rosa, CA which perked my long time interest in the Natalie Wood case and I am so, so excited that you have decided to cover it and am looking forward to every installment. I can't get enough of your videos. I watch A LOT of true crime shows and youtubers alike and you are my favorite for a very good reason. As much information that I have learned about all of the cases you've covered through other mediums, you ALWAYS manage to teach me something brand new that I had never heard before. The way you present all of your information is so engaging and the depth of your research is the best I've seen, I LOVE that your videos are as long as they are. I have to admit that I have a small pet peeve with 15 minute videos on very detailed cases. When I want to know something, I want to know everything, you know? Anyway! I really could go on but I'll spare you from it. Thank you so much for your videos, Stephanie, I'm so grateful for them. xo

    I had no idea Natalie had such a “childhood,” if we can even call it that! I grew up knowing my dad was really upset about what happened in her mysterious death, and I know more has recently come out about that. Really changes my perspective about my guilty pleasure movies, Austin Powers et al.
    That poor child. What a difficult way to grow up, with so much pressure and psychological abuse. Thanks for covering this!

    Very glad you decided to do a bio on the late great Natalie Wood.
    Hope you cover the incident/attack that happened to young Natalie at a hotel when her mother drove her to meet a very influential and older actor (K.D.) at a hotel to discuss a part. Many believe the rape to be true and some deny it happened. Her sister Lana on the podcast Fatal Voyage explained Natalie was still too young to drive and her mother took her. Lana also rode along.
    Poor Natalie was ravaged and her mother didn't want her to "complain" or "make trouble" since she might get a reputation for being a trouble maker.
    Natalie Wood was used and manipulated by people who were supposed to love and care for her.
    A very sad life for such a lovely and caring person.
