My favorite Maggie moment in the documentary was when she was defending Billie from that girl who warned her about including “Xanny” because she doesn’t want Billie to get backlash if she ever does drugs in the future.
Maggie wasn’t all “my precious baby girl would never”. Maggie essentially said that ‘my daughter has something beautiful and powerful to say, we’re not gonna clip her wings because of the possibility that she may change or make a mistake’ and that is SO SO IMPORTANT.
We Stan.

I'm half an hour in and I'm so impressed by the interviewing skill here. Maggie Baird is being interviewed, not simply the mother of Billie Eilish. She is incredibly inspiring in her own right, which is no wonder now I've finished the whole interview. Her parenting style is even more inspirational, so mindful and considerate to psychology and philosophy. I will carry her example with me

It's so adorable how much you can see Billie in Maggie. In some facial expressions, that "hehehe" laugh. How they talk and how they both really talk with their whole bodies. And yes. I lost my dad when I was 15. It totally changes you. Some people will never understand. That loss is something else.

Maggie is, simply, a living saint. She puts her family and society ahead of herself. She's the polar opposite of a sociopath. And her 2 kids are a testament to her & Patrick's deep love of humanity and Planet Earth. Finneas & Billie are following in their parents' footsteps as gifted artists and socially-aware activists.

there's a quote that goes "you cannot do all the good the world needs but the world needs all the good you can do" which i think applies to part of the conversation yall were having about veganism but also applies to using what power you have to do good and also the expectations we have of people. no one can be the perfect vegan, the perfect public figure, the perfect whatever but we can all do the best that we can, the most that we can and we should foster that instead of demanding perfection because everyone putting in effort, although imperfectly, will make the biggest impact.

After listening to Maggie, it is no wonder that both kids turned out so well. It all comes down to her work ethic and willing to work non stop to give Billie and Finneas the support and tools they needed to work their buts off to get to where they are. Easy to see where their genius comes from.

As a disabled young woman in poverty who once was able bodied to work, it’s next to impossible to find safe foods. I battle a couple rare diseases and I go into anaphylaxis or anaphylactic shock if I eat foods that arent clean and as natural as possible with no chemicals on them. Food shelves do not provide this. Keeping weight on is difficult so often I go hungry or end up in the er because I have no choice but to eat cheaper foods that are processed. Money is always an issue and food is a huge issue. I’m so glad you are using your power and status to help push the changes to happen faster. You don’t know how happy it makes me. Thank you so much 💜💜💜💜💜

Something didn't sit right with me about a third through the interview. I thought how could Maggie could have been so together as a young parent, a super well-informed and involved activist, have the confidence to homeschool her kids, weather the vagueries of show business and still be so secure in her view of the world, as well as have attained the level of wisdom she possesses now. Then she mentioned she (and her husband) had not been young parents. So I looked up her age, and lo and behold she is 62. I think it's her still young voice pitch and her enormous passion for wanting to help our ailing world that makes her seem so much younger. Kudos to a boomer really embracing what it means to be - as she herself described -- progressive.
