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?

Right there with you. The whole thing made me sick. My own mother is a piece of work..so watching this really set my teeth on edge. Her sitting there so smug comparing what she did to someone drunk driving?! Okie that is not good either..terrible in fact..but to try and act like cyber bullying her daughter for what..2 years, wasn't so bad. Then the love bombing from prison. And the guilt and manipulation. I was furious because I recognised it. That poor girl needs to run far away from that woman.

I actually had to skip through endra talking cause it was nauseating. I do think including her speaking while overlaying the text messages though kind of shows how manipulative she is... so like totally agree she doesn't deserve a platform, but also i think they were showing how easily she started spouting those crocodile tears and saying all "the right things". it was fucking disgusting to realize it was her, my money was on the principal the whole time and I was pissed I was wrong for the sake of Lauryn. Like jesus how do you get over that.

I was convinced that someone had hacked Lauryn's or Owen's phone, had access to their mic and phone content, and were aware of conversations because they were listening in that way. No way in hell did I suspect any of the parents.

I thought it was going to be someone nobody suspected. A mother of a student who rarely interacted with Lauryn and Owen, a male teacher no one would expect, or a neighbor who the families were barely aware exists.
