"I really don't. I don't give a f---. I have heard everything about me," the mother-of-one explained. "I have heard great things. I've heard terrible things. I've been made fun of. I've been loved. And this has been my whole life. So you think I give a s--- if someone cares that I handed my 2-year-old an iPad? Don't care."
Cuoco shares daughter Matilda with fiancé Tom Pelphrey.
Cuoco recalled the hate she got for letting her daughter watch movies and TV shows on her iPad. "I'm like, 'Calm down. Big time. Calm down,'" she told Shepard.
Shepard said he was "quietly applauding" Cuoco's outspoken advice. "Because it's like the shaming of everyone's parenting is such an epidemic," he added. "And I was like, 'Oh, this b---- is going hard. She's gonna say exactly what's happening and f--- all y'all if you have a problem with that."
Cuoco explained that after having a child she would never tell another parent what to do.
"But it's like I could never say, 'Oh, I don't think you should show her that. Or I don't think you should give that kid that or feed them that.' It's like the f--- am I saying to you?"
Shepard chimed in as he dealt with his own level of online parenting shaming.
"Well, the heat I've gotten for like, one time we said we don't bathe the kids every night," he recalled. "I'm like ... they're babies, but get real. They're not f---ing dirty. That was a whole stink up. Then I said when they were 18 I'd offer to pay for them to freeze their eggs."
The "Flight Attendant" star also believes Matilda will follow in her and Pelphrey's acting footsteps, saying "there's no way [Matilda's] not going to perform."
