Thoughtful handsome young man. Very mature for this time period.

Leif had too much too soon. It’s overwhelming to have that success so young.

Such a lovely young man.

Mmm, Leif speaks well, he's serious and he does well with the topic. Sounds fairly mature here.

November 8, 2014 : THE LEIF GARRETT DAY Happy Birthday, LEIF GARRETT !

Love Leifs hair in this video

Wow. Really impressed with his answer on homosexuality. This was in the ‘70s and he was open minded back then. My estimation of him has gone up. He seems more thoughtful here than many adults today

Hi

Damn, here in South Carolina

Why are they asking him this crap? He seems uncomfortable and doesn't want to be there.

Leif Garrett Seemed More Mature When He Was Younger /When He Started Getting Older He Went Crazy /Taking Hardcore Drugs And Drinking Alcohol /When He Was 5 Days Shy Of His 18th Bday He Crashed His Moms Porshe And His Best Friend Roland Winkler Became A Paraplegic After The Vehicle Took A Tumble Down An 80 ft Embankment ...

He wasn't his best friend, but just a relatively close acquaintance. He had only known Winkler for a month at the time of the crash. Winkler settled out of court with Garrett's insurance company years later for around 6 million. They made amends on a film set in 1999. Winkler actually said that the crash saved his life, even though it caused him to be a paraplegic. Imagine that...He passed away in 2017. May he RIP🙏

Very aware young man. Open minded person.

He had multiple "relationships" with lesbians. Probably bisexual himself but no big deal. He was exploited and used by Hollywood producers until he lost his cuteness. Then they threw him away like garbage.

Jodie and Kristy are both gay. But at the time it wasn't that commune at all to be openly gay.

He was almost an adult.

Sad remarks in tge comments....that speaks of your character not his!!!

I was a teenager during this time. Actually, I see Leif in this interview differently that many of you do. You guys are viewing him through rose colored glasses. The "if it's gonna happen, it's gonna happen" (wow! Deep thinker, Leif) mindset that he has in this clip eludes to the dangers of having no boundaries whatsoever in your life. All you have to do is look at HIS life: He paralyzed his best friend, Roland, by driving drunk, and emotionally abandoned him after the accident. He has been a drug addict/alcoholic pretty much from the time this clip was made to the present, leaving a lot of wrecked lives in his wake. And, no, these weren't "mistakes". It's not like dropping your phone in the toilet or losing your car key. They were calculated decisions that he repetitively made. "(He) sounds fairly mature here" as one poster said. Wow, lol. When people get star-struck, they stop thinking. Yeah, really great guy, lol.

Jesus what a shitty and inconsiderate comment. Leif is an addict and addiction is a disease and he had a really hard time dealing with life once all that was over. So, he self medicated which is totally understandable when you're an addict. He made a lot of mistakes and he owns them all and to this day, he still has a positive attitude about things. Since your comment 4 years ago, he has written a book and talks about everything. If you were ever a fan of him, you would read it and see how selfless he is. He also took care of his father before he died, even though he was an abusive, abandoning asshole till his death. And Leif forgave him and now takes care of his mother, whom he also forgives by being so naive during his childhood. THAT is extremely noble and empathetic. He's doing great now. He's 60 and still sweet and loves his fans.

Can we just say? What is that horrible pattern on that couch? JS

There has always been this evil agenda to sexualize kids as early as possible. Gross. The teens are highly embarrassed and feeling forced into it. I am so glad, in my days we kept our innocence. I was 13 and still playing with dolls. Once I started dating and having sex, it was just about tears and suffering.
