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 feel awful for Lauryn and am also reminded of people I know IRL who cannot cut a harmful parent out of their life.

It honestly made me feel like the grooming and overall harm the mother caused to Lauryn goes way deeper than just this incident. Dare I say almost a little Stockholm-like?

Yeah I doubt this was the only awful things she ever did to her daughter. Who knows what that poor child has been through.
