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?

The way Kendra kept touching and hugging Lauryn after she confessed - I was yelling at the TV, “Get off her!!!” You could tell Lauryn couldn’t process it. I’m still in shock over this one.

When she was like “I can’t leave her” I actually yelled at the TV “you fucking told her to kill herself” like what the fuck?!

And I was shocked the dad told the police “she has to leave we can’t be around her, I might do something I’m so angry or she might do something to our daughter etc..” and then the Police just leave. They don’t wait for her parents to get there. He just said we aren’t safe here with her alone and then they take off. WTH. Really bad police work

I was proud of the dad for taking immediate action. He called her parents to come get her. He was very clear that she had to go. The police should have enforced it and backed him up.

Yeah I was shocked they just blew all that up and walked out. They’re lucky there wasn’t a murder suicide or something. Also she confessed. They should have taken her to the station and got a proper confession done then and there

Yeah unfortunately they were only there to collect evidence and not for a domestic dispute. I wouldn’t be surprised if one of them waited outside for a bit but they did need to go process the evidence. I do agree they should have kept someone there until her parents showed up. They also might have been unsure if they should let them have some space but as soon as the dad was like “I’m afraid something will happen” they should have kept an officer at least on the property.
