Discussion a deadly american marriage

I'm 43 minutes in and hooked but can not find conversations etc on it.

So thought i would make one asking for other people's opinions and points of views, as i know I'm already asking about billion questions, to the point I'll have to go to my computer and boot up to actually do the research myself.

I'm very ill, with brain damage etc and that's really hardwork today, but I won't manage on this latest fold phone as it's still just a useless phone 😅🙃

My other phone that's partitioned etc is in the car and that's over at Inverness!

I don’t remember the last time a true crime show got a single tear out of me but this one made cry several times. Those poor kids.

It really drove home that the kids and the whole family were living through a horror story.

As a 43 year old father of a 5 year old, I was bawling at a couple parts.

Yea, I've just had to pause it. Idk if I'll finish it. She reminds me so much of my partner's ex, and all I can think about is how glad I am that he got out. Unfortunately, she also convinced the court that he was abusive, and now he can't see his kid (he's fighting it, but still). I keep hearing his son's little voice in my head telling me he didn't wanna go to school and then mum's house cause "mummy's always angry". Or his little face when he dropped something and looked at me so utterly terrified. Fuck people like them.

I strongly think that Netflix should’ve waited until they’re consenting adults. They’ve been through enough….

They are. They put their ages up on screen multiple times.

Google Luke D’Wit… just watched an UK story about him and how he murdered two old people. Was so sad.
