The same goes for my biological mother.
These people are not alone.
Whoa.
Didn’t realize they look alike. 😮
His dad sounds like he was very abusive and I read he used to beat his mom I'm glad he's found healing in the situation what he went through sounds very traumatic
What does the Kardashian have to do with Culkin?
Keeevin is 44 😮
He looks like he's almost in tears sad
No one not anybody except those that lived in that home knows what's going on.
It's so obvious that something happened if all the kids want nothing to do with his father
I dont think my mom would do that, lol well she did that🤣
So sad
❤❤❤❤❤
he said my kids want nothing to do with him?? umm how would they know that without u telling them that, hilarious,
I love him
So proud of McCauley Culkin❣️
Sound like Mac was in it for the money that why he made the kids famous
He should not retire. Love to see Maculay on the screen again.
Just goes to show while most often we view celebrities as having picture perfect lives, success sometimes comes at a price. Despite their upbringing, both Maculay and Kieran seem to be super humble, caring and loving guys. Kit can deny it until he’s blue in the face, but when all SEVEN of your kids cut all ties with you, that’s all the information you need. They’re not all wrong.
First of all, i didn't realize he's older than I am lol (I'm almost 42). Secondly, I'm so happy that he has been able to overcome so much. Glad to see him happy and thriving
Damn Kourtney's son is matured for his age cool. And aww Mack is back!
It's still amazes me how people don't understand that you can actually have real reasons to hate your parents. More than just them giving you the wrong pronoun
Was it because he left you Home Alone? 😂
Shoutout to Mac and Kieran and the other boys who are breaking that generational cycle by being better parents to their children.
Now Macauley Culkin is having peace with his life outside of Hollywood with Brenda Song and his 2 sons!!!!!
That’s right protect your peace! ❤
It's SO obvious why Michael Jackson had some of the close celebrity friends he did (regardless of age). He, Liz Taylor, Macaulay (and probably others we don't know about) were members of a strange club/support group it's almost impossible to join (and nobody would want to): wildly successful showbiz kids with pathologically abusive fathers. Who else would ever understand what they had to deal with when their abuser was signing all the contracts and forcing them to work against their will?
Is NO ONE going to call out these moronic Kardashians for allowing their children to address GROWN UP ISSUES on social media?! Man I hate it here. 🙄😒
1:51 everyone can see he looks more like Justin than his “dad” Scott.
