Drew Barrymore said no matter how many times her kids have asked, she refuses to give her two young daughters cell phones and “access to everything.”

Speaking at the taping of “The Drew Barrymore Show,” the 49-year-old actress and talk show host spoke to her audience about the challenges of parenting kids in a time when everyone has cell phones, including kids.

“I am struggling. I have a ten- and an eleven-year-old daughter,” Barrymore said in the clip posted by the show on Instagram. “Most parents are dealing with it. A lot of parents are giving their kids phones at very young ages.”

“And it’s just access to everything,” she added. “It’s really tough. I’m like very overwhelmed. But I’m not going to give up. I’m going to give in. I haven’t let my kids have phones yet.”

The Hollywood star talked about how amazing it is to have “wanted so badly” for her kids to love her and their environment, but she’s willing to risk it to keep them safe.

“None of us want our children to resent us and we don’t want to be their enemy,” Barrymore explained. “It is such a hard choice to say, ‘I don’t care if you hate me for this. I don’t care if you are mad at me for this. I know that I’m doing the right thing by you. And I accept your anger.’”

The comments drew loud applause from her audience members.

“Nobody wants their kids to be angry with them,” she added. “It’s not a great feeling. But I know that this is what’s best for them. And I’ve got to stick with it. I have to find the courage every day to not give in.”

The “50 First Dates” star said if you are a parent who has given up and let your kids have cellphones, she understands and said there is “no right or wrong,” calling it a hard thing to navigate.

Barrymore previously opened up about raising her kids in the public eye and got emotional about the challenge, calling it something they “didn’t sign up for.”

“When I had my kids, I was like … that changed everything,” Barrymore explained on a past show. “Don’t f*** with my kids. This is not okay. They didn’t sign up for this. It’s so hard.”

The host then really broke down and started crying as guest Pamela Anderson tried to comfort her, agreeing that it was “hard” to have your kids be in a spotlight they never asked for.

The “Charlie’s Angels” star married art advisor Will Kopelman in 2012 and welcomed one daughter that year and another in 2014. In 2016, the couple announced their separation, and their divorce was official later that year.
