Anyone watch this documentary on Netflix? Just crazy. It will make you scream at your tv within the first 10 minutes. You can't make this stuff up.

So I read this post earlier today and was getting bored so decided to check it out. OMG, both families are pretty screwed up. When the mom was talking about making out with the creep who was molesting her daughter, smiling and with a twinkle in her eye, I thought WTF???!!! Then the dad comes on and tells his story and I was done.

Hi every one! Can you believe it? I still cannot believe my luck and I was there!!! Again while on my way to work this morning there was someone white and *quite* chunky looking flying across the road. I pulled over, backed up a bit, and admired a stunningly beautiful snowy Owl perched on top of a utility pole. This one was much larger than the first Owl I had seen and was more heavily barred. The barring seemed darker / black. I believe this Owl was a female as her face, nape of the neck and center of the breast were white. From what I was able to research that does describe the female snowy. Maybe this was an immature but I did not find much description of them. Any way ... I am 113% sure this was another Snowy Owl! What a wonderful start to the day! As my luck would have it, I did not have my camera in the car for the past week. Had the camera been there then for sure the Owl would NOT! LOL! So that was a great start to the day. I was 20 minutes late to work but work is just soooo over-rated. LOL! The rest of the day was downhill but who cares? I saw another Snowy Owl! The Owl was about 1 mile south of the earlier sighting on Rt. 83 in N. Ridgeville again. C3D and 2 Snowy sightings this year!

If they let them get together, gardenia, it'll be the kiss of death for the show, it never fails. Once they lose their "sexual tension", it's over. But if was "real world", yes, I'd like to see them together. I'd like to see her happier, though, she's always pretty morose. (Of course, with her dysfunctional family.... who can blame her?) lol

I've read that since they had to leave their eggs behind, they try to find good sites for them. It's just how they are hard-wired because of following the bison. Since I've learned that, it doesn't bother me. Heck, man is so much worse and done so much more damage than cowbirds.

Just watched it....

It really is difficult to believe the parents were so stupid... or naive? But even at that, the FBI agent himself admitted to how uninformed he was to this kind of deviant.

As they say: Truth is stranger than fiction. Certainly applies here.

The parents should have spent time in jail for being the STUPIDIST people on the planet! Who befriends a pedophile who has kidnapped your child? And who has an affair with a man who has kidnapped your child?) BOTH parents! Seriously, my jaw fell open and the words just would not come out of my mouth when they both admitted to having sex with the man who not only kidnapped their daughter, HE DID IT TWICE! OMG! And to top it off.... THEY ALLOWED A DOCUMENTARY TO BE FILMED ABOUT THEIR DUMBNESS! And there's a book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A book! They're making more money off this. Off their daughters horrible upbringing because of their dumbness. Okay, I'll stop now, but those people really need a slap upside the head. Or two. Maybe more.

Ya know, even right of the bat when he picked Jan up after piano lesson, parents, nor his wife, didn’t call the law & report B & Jan missing for 4 days. Even the most innocent explanation ***an automobile accident & they were hospitalized *** wasn’t enough to make them take appropriate action. That is such bizarre INACTION!

My daughter is watching this as we speak and updates her reactions on FB. They're hilarious. But I can't repeat some of the words she's saying. hahahaha. I'm sure my kids appreciate my husband and I a lot more after watching this show. hahahaha

Debby, your post made me laugh out loud. Sounds very like my own DDs would be if they watched it.

Watched it last night. This is an all round weird story, the whole thing. Starting with the father who ‘helped out’ B. Why didn’t the mother ever ask B why he wanted her (the mother) to marry him when he kept pushing to marry ‘Dolly’?

Caught that last week. Very disturbing. Serious dereliction of duty on the parents part. Disgusting on all the adults part actually.

I finally caved and looked at this thread. I have no clue- had no clue that this was even a thing and now I am curious but I don't know if I will cave to reading about this. Just sounds too insane. (but maybe I will have to see- curiosity killed the cat you say?)
