The Perfect Father

I like the way the writer tells you in detail about the lives of Chris and Shannan Watts. The details of the case have been seen in documentaries. In some of these documentaries, Shannan is portrayed as very innocent, which came out of the blue. I am not saying that Shannan deserves this, and please do not misinterpret what I am saying. Marriage is work. There needs to be compromises and conversations, which must be based on truth. It takes two for the relationship to work.

This marriage started rocky from the moment the in-laws clashed, and there were a few times on everyone's part to make the family dynamic work. Shannan had a strong personality and liked the control, which she admitted. Shannan does talk several times and reflects on her responsibility in the relationship, but it seems that Chris had made up his mind that the only way out was by death. It is still incomprehensible why the little girls he loved so much had to die. They were innocent. This couple was constantly in front of the cameras, claiming perfection and marital bliss. Did they lose their sense of identity and not see the conflicts? Only the Watts know, and as Chris told his parents, he will take to the grave the truth of what happened.
Cases that I can think that have some similarities: Scott Peterson and Diane Downs.: extramarital affairs and the desire of a new start without their children. (less) [edit]
