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?

Sometimes it takes a long time for victims of abuse like Lauryn to realize what actually happened to them. Kendra is a master manipulator so I'm not surprised that Lauryn is still under her spell. What I don't understand is how the authorities are letting this happen. Where's the restraining order? Where's the sex offender regisration? Unbelievable.

I guarantee you that in time, and it may be 10 years, it may be 20 years, Lauryn will come to realise the level of abuse hurled against her by her own mother. People do not forget.

For sure. I hope she'll get all the help and support that she needs.
