[Warning: Potentially Triggering Content] The more we learn about what Jennette McCurdy suffered throughout her childhood, our hearts just break more and more for her… The former child star appeared on a new episode of Red Table Talk on Wednesday to speak with hosts Jada Pinkett Smith, Willow Smith, and Adrienne Banfield-Norris about the horrors she faced at the hands of her abusive mother, Debra McCurdy.

We didn’t expect to be shocked considering what the 30-year-old has revealed already, but… wow. One of the instances she touched on included the claim her late mom insisted on still bathing Jennette herself for far too long — since she didn’t think they would do a good enough job herself.

The iCarly alum recalled while reading an excerpt from her book, I’m Glad My Mom Died: It did not make sense. Not at all.

When Jada asked how that terrible experience impacted her “dynamic” with her big brother, Jennette – who also has two other brothers, Dustin and Marcus McCurdy – shared that she still has a “beautiful bond” with each of her siblings.
