Discussion Unknown Number High-school Catfish Spoiler

What the hell did I just watch? And what the hell was this person thinking?

I'm in shock that someone would do such a thing to their own child. And that she doesn't seem to have any focus on what she actually did.

The daughter didn't seem to grasp what her mother did when they told her but the father acted on it right away.

Was she totally jealous of her own daughter?

I read that Lauryn still hasn't talked to her mom and has changed her perspective about her. She is now 18 years old.

Thank you for adding this. I just read up about this too and that POOR KID was all turned around and muddled up. She was ALWAYS going to recognise the magnitude of what her mother did. I'm so glad for her that it only took a year to shift her perception. 🖤

Thanks, sorry really should have looked that up.

At the end of the documentary, Kendra is out of prison and hasn’t seen Lauryn for a year and a half. Lauryn is not ready to see her mom yet

The doc almost blurred those interviews at the end.weird

Ya I thought the end was a little odd as well.
