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'm mad that the documentary and police never called her what she really is, a pedophile. Her texts weren't just harassing, they were wildly disgustingly sexual. She fantasized about being with the young boy in those texts. She stalked him and his new girlfriend from another town. Owen himself said she acted inappropriately towards him. She needs to be in jail before she hurts another child.

The police have the majority of responsibility. But documentaries are supposed to be investigative journalism. They should have asked her, Are you a pedophile? Did you volunteer at the school to get closer to Owen? Why did you stalk Owens new girlfriend? Why did you attend Owen's games when he was no longer dating your daughter? Her answer would have been lies but the implication would at least be aired.

I wish they could have asked all of these things, but I bet in order to get her to even participate they probably had some kind of contract to avoid certain questions. I hate that they didn’t pointedly ask her, but I think (judging by everyone in here) we all see the truth and not a single person could argue otherwise, this woman is a dangerous pedo.
