She is a lucky one. And we all see what a child can become and achieve when he/she has a supportive environment.

When you have parents like this, there's nothing you can't do in your life. I want to be this kind of parent.

This brought tears to my eyes....I only wish my parents were half as supportive as Billie's. Billie is amazing and she owes a lot of that to her loving, supportive family....So nice to see...

To add to this...Finneas had severe anxieties as a child, so he was home schooled. Billie also has anxieties, learning disabilities auditory processing disorder, as well as Tourrette's Syndrome. Homeschooled, too. This means that Maggie could not work full time. They bought a small house in northeast LA. Patrick fixed it up, and they flipped for the 2 bdrm bungalow that they live in. Then, the 2008 housing crash affected them, and they almost lost the house 🏠 Billie said that they had no spare money at all at that time. That's why she wore thrift store clothes. She said that going to Target was "fire" from her perspective. The Baird-O'Connells truly dedicated themselves to their children's best interests while working hard and living modestly.

Contrast this to the Spears family and you understand how special this is. What a good family. My dad was the set builder for a few plays my sister did, she always had a main role if not the lead. My mom did a lot of the painting. Those sets were never safer or more beautiful then those productions, so much so that a prop house gladly took several pieces after each show run was over.

I'm 40 and I absolutely love Billie Eilish, seeing how she was raised by great parents shows exactly why she is where she is in life, and I love that she's humble, that proves a lot. I wish my mom was as supportive of me when I was young... I hope I can be this parent for my son

It's hardwork plus family support! Highest respect for her parents. Happy Mothers and Fathers Day to all parents in advance!

Great video. Very insightful. Billie's parents did an amazing job at nuturing and fostering their kids passions. Took it very seriously. Now they're reaping the benefits of doing that.

I not only think Maggie & Patrick are wonderful parents, I think it's awesome that their children are humble & know they wouldn't be where they are in life without their parents. I love how their whole family is close & work as a team.

the part Billie wanting to put them in a movie, got me teary eyed. Dreams never die. We just make sacrifices as life goes on and piles up, and try our best to still achieve them. Billie deserves it all

This is incredibly soothing to my soul. I was raised in an incestuous family where there was hardly any sacrifices from my parents for me. This is so sweet to hear about how these parents showed love to their kids in very concrete ways as well as emotional support. I am re-parenting myself now with this family as an example. Many blessings to everyone out there from abusive upbringings that we can all change our mindsets towards health and peace. 🙏💖

Most people hear "actor" or "musician" and think that means money. Most career artists make, at best, a lower middle class or middle class living, without any form of benefits or retirement. They also pay high taxes due to being self employed, and need to pay in quarterly/estimated form. Great to put out things like this to spread awareness.

Am I weird to have cried the whole way through this video? It touched my soul to see the love in this family! They are my favorite entertainers of all! I am very sick and bed ridden and I can just close my eyes and listen to the and forget my pains! Thank you!!!

Billie and Finneas deserve all the good they're getting and I adore their parents for being hardworking

I love this video - I've always wanted to get more insight into Maggie & Patrick's love, support and contribution to Billie and Finneas - the pictures from their past, which aren't in "The World's A Little Blurry" are so wonderful. Thank so much for doing this. Like someone commented before me, I sure hope this Omicron virus bottoms out in the next 4 weeks and the world will get to experience Billie's superstardom. I personally believe that Billie is truly a great star, whose STAR will continue to rise. But more than anything, I want Billie - and Finneas - to be well, safe and to have peacefulness and well-being in their very young lives. P.S. This is January 10 - congratulations on the Golden Globe!

❤ Refreshing. No wonder they seem so genuine and not ruined by their success.

I cried because this was such a beautiful set of parents that were so sacrificing. I also cried because I mourned and hurt that I didn't have that. You're all so blessed.

I didn’t know about Billy’s parents. But I love how close they all are, and their success is a testament to what can happen when parents are equally devoted to fostering their children’s talents and creativity. Great video!

she has the most incredible parents, I'm jealous in a good way

Thats why shes such a powerful artist- she comes from a beautiful and humble place.

This is so heartwarming! I'm glad a family like this exists in our world.

Such a beautiful testimony on the sacrifices parents are willing to make for the successes and sake of their children. May God bless every one of you mothers and fathers out there who are present, supporting, and loving to your littles, for YOU are the examples.

Billy and her family is such a humble family...Regardless all the struggles / hardship, they always stick together. That is what family for. And Billy omgggg I was o lucky to see her and Finneas on live concert last month !

They gave the most important to their kids …LOVE.

Wow, I cannot imagine artists parents supporting their kids to become artists as well. Usually I have seen the pendulum goes to the opposite side from one generation into another. I know a family which was like billie's, the musical parents taught music at home to their son and then he graduated as an Engineer and later did MBA to become a worker in corporate world. He does well financially. And here me being an Engineer and doing well, teaching my daugher music as a side thing and asking her to focus on being a professional Engineer or Doctor.

She deserves the world! I'm very happy (and proud) for her. Amazing family!

i think out of all the artists I know of, this has got to be the most wholesome yet beautiful thing I've seen. I never knew this about Billie and her families struggles.

Mad respect to their parents for working so hard to cultivate their values and work ethics in their children 💪🏼💜💜💜

What amazing parents! It’s nice to see how much love and support they’ve shown their children.

It is a good house rule if your home schooled or during school holidays when you don't need to get up early, I find the best time to be creative and come up with ideas is at night.

I have SO much respect for the whole family! Seriously inspiring, not as much from the industry success but from the perspective of creating an amazing family that are supportive of each other. I love to see amazing people have amazing things happen for them in life!

Such an amazing beautiful family with genuine talent. Absolutely love how they are so tight-knit.

This is so touching. So proud for her and her family!

"They always needed money." No actually quite the opposite : they were true artists making do with what they had and raised their children in that ethos. Their parents live in the childhood home.

I have parents like that. It is the most amazing gift and you recognize what a special gift it is while you are growing so you can savor it and glow in their love and wonderful parenting. Then I lost Dad to cancer. It punched a big black hole in my soul that can never be repaired and I struggle to this day to function when I think of him. It doesn’t matter how old you are, if you lose a parent, a good one that did their job and made sure you knew you were loved above all else, it cripples you. And you don’t recover. It doesn’t get easier, you learn to breathe through the pain and keep it off your face. Some days, when it is most acute, I am certain, it would have been better to have never loved at all. And then the guilt rolls in cuz mom is still alive and still loves, but she’s broken too. None of us are the same. So everything is different and your pain is sharper when seeing her pain.

It is really nice to see that this family was so blessed with love and support. It's wonderful that something like this came from a place where there seems to be nothing but woe on the news. Much love and respect to Billie and her great family. 💖

Finneas was literally on glee. Are you telling me he didnt meet a single person from the music industry while he was on there?

Billie has depth. From poor to a celebrity. Others are just plastic/fake. But everything about billie is real

You are so blessed to have such a loving supportive and genuinely nurturing parents. Love your family

I love her story and her parents for being 100 percent committed to their family!!! God bless you all!

They are such a great example of parents to creatives. Love that Billie pays them as crew, this is how you take care of family 😍

Parent's love & sacrifice can move mountains ❤

Thank you Billie and Finneas’ mum and dad for allowing and encouraging them to become the incredibly talented artists they are today 🙏🌷

The upside is music was the inspiration, no matter how many challenges they had as a family, and it explains Billies incredibly deep and heartfelt lyrics💜

I love Billie n her beautiful family! I now love them even more. I had no idea her Mom n Dad were actors. I totally recognize her Mom from different roles. The fabulosity is through the roof!

It is like a perfect storm of good! Maggie and Pat are the coolest and best Mom and Dad!

So sweet to see a functional family. I come from a very dysfunctional family, and me as parent my self make my best to be not only food and shelter provider but also a spiritual parent guiding my son towards the best version of him self. But we the parents can do only so much, so I strongly believe that the greatest supports comes from above the clouds.

Billie grew up with her parents living paycheck to paycheck and yet: she has not the slightest clue how much a box of cereal costs. Did she never go grocery shopping with her parents? Like, ever? Not to mention, she sells her merch $50 for a shirt, $100 for a sweatshirt. (Yes, I realize they are organically and ethically made in the U.S., but try telling that to her 12 year old superfans with low-income parents.)

Its great they have gratitude. But also.. most parents dont love their children in a real way but only control them or demand what needs to be done or leaves them to live on their own struggle on their own and sneer at them when the child is upset at something and chastise them for not knowing what the real world is like. I think if we are truly kind and loving then gratitude is a byproduct. Expressing it and communicating it must be taught, as well. It is beautiful to see such a close family, and real true nurturing. I am so glad the girl i babysat showed me Billie Eilish. I wish i could have afforded the concert for us without it taking me too close to zero. Im just a loser but i know if my parents were for me and not against me, i would have made it to a different place than i am today. Still, even with that support, she expresses so much that i can relate to, with such cool calm collected sass. I feel the sadness, the loneliness of our Aquarian Moon hearts.. i wish Billie to be loved thoroughly, the way she desires to be loved, completely and wholly. No more sadness or less than. I appreciate the effort of the whole family to bring us this art.

They've got great parents and likewise they've got great kids!! 👏🏼♥️💯 To be ABLE to take care of their parents after all their parents have done for them, is a blessing. 🙏

I love the story of their family and how they support each other!

Amazing history, God bless you and your family forever and ever Billie Eilish!!!! I love her!

I love their story. As a mom who has homeschoolered her children for 20 years so far…our kids are extremely well rounded and have wonderful passions. The sacrifice that parents make are selfless ❤

Wow, the love. What a great family. This report gives significant insight. Beautiful 😍

Love and blessings to you and your family Billie. Truly wonderful people!

This honestly makes me cry. Parents should be like this. My parents never supported my passion, instead they always looked at me like I'm a loser. I never gave up, but its hard to go on with no support.

I don't agree that the parents are the ones who is doing this for Billie. Yes they are part of it. But it's her brother who's the real genious behind it all.

They are such an Inspirational American Family, Love it.

I am so glad to know of artists with both parents supporting them and loving them, great job mom and dad! More importantly, I love that Finneas and Billie give back the love & respect to their children. Great job everyone, I wish to see more of this.

Note that she didn't come out of nothing. Her parents were still In some big time shows... so... it's literally impossible to get into Hollywood without links. Even Hailey bieber, she's not just a fan and his wife, she's a Baldwin.

These parents are amazing. You hope all parents would make similar choices but sacrifice is hard for people. Look what love this family has.

What amazing parents. No wonder Billie is so talented.

Mad respect to this family.

That totally explains the vibes I caught from her. Adds up. Super glad for her parents.

Well no wonder you and your brother are so creative and talented it runs in your family!!

I always know that Billie is an awesome human being and the people around her too.Her family is the biggest support for her to be this big and to achieve the dream. 👍

Wonderful family ❤

I knew Billy as a youngster she used to ride at the barn I worked at her parents are tremendous people she's an amazing young lady I miss her everyday God bless her and her family.

I'm so glad finneas and Billie got wonderful parents! Thank u Billie and finneas's mom and dad!

I love You Billie Eilish

She's soo cute and fun👑💞 Love that girl

Very High respect to their parents 🎉. I love Billie's music😊

this is so beautiful, they're such wonderful parents

Just saw her yesterday ♥️ watching this video now, was a fan but now can’t get enough after that! WIW

Lol everyone saying “they started from the bottom!” But the parents were literally on tv shows and musicians. Guess y’alls idea of the bottom is different than mine. Eye roll

this is so beautiful. made my heart full

Cool to see a normal family create a wonderful unit that just works! You all rock!

Wow..absolutely incredible parents ❤️

This is a beautiful story. Its so wholsome and refreshing.

God Bless Billie and her family...😊🥰😌😇.

Maggie and Patrick are the best parents in the world and I'm sure, Finneas is the best brother that exists, in my opinion, Billie is the best person in this universe !!

Their family is so beautiful and talented ❣

Love this!

This is a beautiful story. These parents sacrificed everything most care about today to fully invest in their children's growth and success 🙌👏

an amazing family thanks for sharing amazing parents!

Wow. What an inspiration of a family!!

So inspiring and lovely great parents 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙌🏻

See, when my daughter played a song by BE I asked about it, so I started listening and watching her videos. I could see that she had amazing parents from the way she is, and this only proves what I had always known! "You have amazing parents"!

Interesting content & videos, but let down a little by the speed of the commentator ! It was hard to take in everything at that speed , but was well-presented. I never knew her parents were both famous, too. Nice to know there are also parents out there who are good at balancing support for their children without becoming taking over too much power from them. Love the dynamic between them all ! Seems to be a lot of genuine respect and love there. Love Billie Eilish, she's so incredibly unique.

I am soo glad I try to do as much as the same with our kids! support your children where you can and if they 'bother' you, it's time to wake up and listen to your kids because they are telling you something. It will never be easy.

As a mom once my children know what they want in life I will fully support them.

Such a beautiful family! ❤

This is beautiful.

Wow her parents are so strong and literally amazing for supporting thier kids dreams. So beautiful. Giving up so much so thier kids be successful. Wow what amazing parents. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Man. I had no idea. Amazing ❤️❤️

She’s so pretty and cute ☺️🖤💚

Truly greats. "Each of ya!"

These are the kind of parents we should all be

That's wonderful! Can't relate to any of it 🧚‍♀️

I cried at this. I wish I could have experienced this type of love too.
