‘Unknown Number: The High School Catfish’ has Netflix viewers shook with jaw-dropping reveal: ‘Disgusting’

The bit I found interesting was when the police turned up, she admitted to most of it, apart from insisting that she didn't start it ("The first ones didn’t start, like, with me"), putting it down to "random, or whatever". She has admitted to everything else so why not just say she started it and it got out of hand? Unless it was someone else that she knew had originally sent the messages and she was protecting them... Therefore I think the daughter started it and was aware of what was going on. She didn't seem too surprised when her mum was confronted. Many have put it down to shock, I'm not so sure. I definitely think there is a lot more to it than what we know!

Also another thing to keep in mind is several of those messages that were shown during the program sounded very much like something a teenager would say.

I wondered who had the time for this crazy obsession. She had a full time job, family, and spent time doing all of these crazy messages. That is some deep psychopathology to do this for as long as she did.

Well, I just moved up in "being a good Mom". I never did any crazy psycho stuff like this. I couldn't even imagine why. Or think about it.

Well the shot of Mum confessing to the Dad in the kitchen also included an admittance that she had been let go from both her jobs months before. I mean how could he not realise her salaries were missing?
So apparently that’s how she had the time for all this. I also wondered why she was let go and suspected some kind of fraud or underperforming due to constantly being online?
Someone mentioned up thread jealousy of her daughter and an unhealthy interest in her boyfriend. I have to say I suspected the same.

Such a heartbreaking and baffling case.


I remember watching a LifeTime movie based on a case similar to this.

From what I remember the mom doesn't want to be alone or want her daughter leaving to go to college, so sabotages her daughters life to keep her daughter "needing" her, mom is eventually caught and goes to jail. I can't find it but it's not the 2008 movie.

Without getting too deep in the weeds on this one, is it a movie?

Some adults are trapped in their adolescence their entire lives.

Yes but they still usually don't continue to talk like teenagers. Most of the time when you see something that sounds like it was written by a teenager it usually means it came from a teenager.

Kendra true definition of monster mom, in my opinion. Also, in my opinion, LL, cannot heal if she allows her "mother" back into her life. KL trying to justify her crimes tells me that she is not remorseful, that she is mad about being caught only. She smirked and smiled so many times. I have no empathy for her because she shows no remorse for what she did, no accountability she blames only.

According to the People article she handled all household finances so I can see why her ex-husband Shawn wasnt aware of the sad situation she put their finances in. Its noted she was the breadwinner.

Really glad to see that LL and her father SL have built a strong relationship. :)
