It's insane to realize how these events (happening during my childhood) caused Britney such great harm and it took many of us years to realize it. I was about 6 years old when Britney debuted with Hit Me Baby One More Time; naturally, when you're a kid you think most people on TV are full blown adults. To later realize she was a teenager at the time is extremely disheartening. When watching this, it helped me realize how ahead of her time she was as a young adult. and how we somehow normalized paprazzi; constantly being watched, followed, and documented? This literally would have sent anybody into a public mental breakdown.
