[@marypowell921]

@@Tracy-rf7rinobody deserves to end they way she and her children did. But being murdered doesn’t automatically make her a saint. She was so concerned with projecting the image of wealth and happiness, she put her and Chris Watts deep into debt, she was bossy, and craved attention at all times. That idiot she married just sat back and allowed it all to happen, instead of putting his foot down, he just gave her access to all the finances so she could blow it all on Thrive products. Did you know he had $12k in savings until she spent it all on an engagement ring he couldn’t afford? He should have have spoken up then. Maybe if he had a spine in the first place, it wouldn’t have ended in disaster. But you can’t just ignore her flaws and call her a saint because she was murdered.

[@leemayhan4199]

I live in Alaska where North Pole AK is a town and Santa is there all year long sitting on Santa’s big chair and with children from all over the world. I took my children and now grand children to visit Santa every single summer. That is over 40 years of photos with Santa. The history is more than 1/2 my photos are the kids crying or hiding and we begging for them at least to stand near Santa. The rest of the photos are as happy as you can get. I will note the kids who refused are now in photos as they aged up. All my kids are fine. They did not need therapy because I sometimes try to coerce them into a short visit with Santa. Ha ha Kids are never fine, they are like a volcano ready to go off any second.

@@sunnyjaz5564respectfully? It’s more nuanced than that. Bella was clearly emotionally distraught already, and then first tried to get Shanann’s attention by “asking” for help with opening the gift (“it’s too hard.”) which is perfectly okay for a child to say about opening a gift. then when Shanann isn’t as attentive to her, she escalates. She was a child. Honestly, I think her Bella and Cece’s emotional responses were the only rational ones here. Chris is too scared to actually comfort his crying children and her parents just watch on live. I didn’t see issues w the videos from Shannan before but she truly disturbed me with this one.

This is what social media does. It gets people so obsessed with creating fake happy family moments and completly makes them forget about the real family moments they should be enjoying. Christmas Eve should be about eating food, watching movies, playing board games and enjoying your family not creating this bullshit forced social media "look how great we are" video. The kids were the only real part of it and instead of enjoying their christmas eve they were tramatized and then called names.

It is awful how many families force “family moments” on social media. First of all no one cares outside of the grandparents and maybe close friends.

How many times do these poor kids have to say hi and goodbye to a faceless cell phone in one day? Grinch shaming your 4 yr old and telling the audience that your other daughter had a BM is going way over the line imo.

Why can't we stop doing that? This is not the responsibility of the people who post these videos.

The perfect family and "perfect" life. All of them dress the same. Smile the same. They even all stand the same 😅 Hand on hip, slightly turned to the side, one knee bent and wide toothy smile.

At 2:07 look how Shan’ann’s whole demeanour changes and she makes it clear to Bella she isn’t happy with her and she MUST see Santa or he’s being told to leave. I’m sure both girls would have been more than happy for Santa to be sent away. The lights on the Xmas tree were only being switched on because Santa was at the door. Poor Ce-Ce was terrified but she was still dragged kicking and screaming to sit on his lap. Why on earth would you go live on FB when your two kids are clearly extremely distressed? It’s so, so sad. She was filming the whole disaster but still needed another phone to take photos of both girls on Santa’s lap where Ce-Ce is clearly upset and scared and Bella is extremely ill at ease. I’m shocked that she actually admitted Ce-Ce had pooped near the end. The whole thing is just awful from beginning to end.

Sit down Santa. Twice. What's really hard is I see myself in her. Before my marriage fell apart and I ended up homeless I would get caught up more in posting what a great time we were having even though I had a mental illness that kept me from having a good time. I didn't know I was sick at the time. I wasn't this bad though. I wouldn't ever traumatize my kids like that. And if one of my kids was acting how Bella was acting I would have asked if she wanted to cuddle and have me read books to her. And if I could get her relaxed I would ask her if she's upset about something. She doesn't care about the stupid water bottle or the slippers! Did she hear her dad six discussing his plans to murder them? She really looked pale and upset. While I would get stupid about social media at times I was very attuned to the children and if they were upset they knew their feelings really did matter. But I ended up slipping into a mental collapse and like i said I went homeless. But that's also how I became independent and empowered and no longer seeking external validation to feel validated. I learned how to self validate. I ended up slowly working my way outta the streets. It was a long process. This is one of the most depressing things I've ever witnessed. Sadly I think she was being a good parent compared to what's going on in a lotta homes. And neither of these two ppl are capable healthy parents. So depressing!

One word, maybe two. They were buds because guys don't really have to talk. They can just be with each other. Chris Watts came from a family where the mother yammered on constantly and the husband and son just vegged out with "whatever" towards their busy body wife/mom. And the same dichotomy played out with Shannan, who was more than happy to hog the attention she never got in high school.

Point blank period None of these videos give a hint on what he would do to his family , you all are reading way too hard into this case when in reality Shannan had so much love for her kids and her husband . She took this video mainly for her family and close friends on Facebook not for millions to see . Grow up , let this family grieve in peace . Let’s move on instead of making assumptions on Shannan. Stop giving Chris the fame he doesn’t deserve , let’s move on with our lives instead of reading into something that has no business being ours. May these videos remind everyone how bright Shannan was and appreciate her time while she was with us . Leave her family alone, leave her friends alone, and most importantly leave this case to rest - Also those who make “conspiracy theories” and make-up their theories on the case is sickening. Nikole (Shannan’s best friend) said even SHE hates the fact this is still being talked about and theorized . Shannan in NO means meant to “traumatize” her children - if you’re an adult with 2 toddlers you’d understand - why can’t we grasp that Chris quite literally dumped his family off at the side of the road and expected to get away with it . If you’d like a reminder on how awful this scum is I’d suggest watching his court footage . Their videos in no means where meant to be put out once again to a large audience to pick apart , read the court cases it’s all there.

Your name alone says how disgusting you are, but I'll go into a little detail here. She was an online marketer. Her Facebook looks like every woman's I know, and their husbands didn't rip their children's lip off smothering them. Chris's complaints only started 4 weeks before he murdered his entire family. Before then, everyone that knew the both of them - and Chris himself - said they were happy. Like most narcissists and sociopaths, Chris didn't have the guts to say what he felt or wanted. And until he met his mistress, he wanted to be there. Her FB was part of her job. To sell and network online, you have to put yourself out there. She's no different than millions of other women who do this. The problem wasn't her social media. It was that she was living with a serial killer who said he fantasized about killing his kids for 4 weeks after meeting a woman he barely knew at work. What's sad is that this is genuine. This is the family she thought she had. It's not her fault she was married to a quadruple murderer. How many men do you know that would murder their 3 and 4-year-old in front of each other because they met a mistress at work? But you're sitting here on the internet YOURSELF... talking about someone else who worked online? She made money networking. How much are you making? Maybe you're the neglectful one. Her children were happy. You can see the love she had for them at their birthday party. That's a small snippet of that day. A 2 minute video in a 24-hour day that she shared. The issue is the murderer, not a mother so proud that she filmed her children.

She could have had no clue that one day tens of thousands would watch them - for all the wrong reasons. She was trying to market a product by selling you a lifestyle. It sometimes backfired. Sometimes it didn't though. There are plenty of happy clips that those hostile to Shannan ( "Thought Provoking Videos" etc.) don't care to analyse. They ignore the ones where the kids were laughing and running around.

It's so interesting to view a family's life through segments of self-shot video like this... Obviously it only provides a small snapshot of their lives and not the entire story....

"Chris dress up as Santa for CHristmas" is all a very good and normal behavior.... The questionable part is that when things didn't go as Shannan's expectations had determined they would go, Shannan doesn't stop recording or disengage from the "FB Live friends". She instead disengages further from her family, while live-streaming it. The whole thing is uncomfortable. She's live-streaming herself having 'Santa' take photos of her and her daughter.... And Chris apparently isn't supposed to break his role as Santa... Such a tragic and confusing situation for everyone. Chris should have just broken character and said "Bella, this is daddy dressed up as Santa Claus...." And showed Cece that it was him dressed up as Santa. At 6:47 Chris even addresses the "FB Live Audience" and expresses his concern for Cece.... He should have just stopped the charade but I think he was too worried about backlash he'd receive from Shanann? Who knows? This is why these videos are so interesting...

Oh its horrid isn't it? What an unmitigated disaster this Christmas at the Watts Household was. Those poor wee girls. It was an absolute torture for them wasn't it?

It was all about the online video Shannan Show! Like you said, poor Bella, opening her first present, only to find a cheap plastic water bottle, and not even the one she said she liked. How disappointing for her. What child could be excited about that? Then Shannan gets all drama queen on her, and calling her "the Grinch" over and over. It really annoyed me. I would have taken both of the children out of the room if I had been a relative visiting or one of her parents. I sometimes wonder if this is why she couldn't wait to move Chris out to Colorado, away from both families, so she could exert full power and domination over him and any children they would have. She could run things all her own way without risking interference and criticism from other family and friends. She knew Chris was absolutely no challenge to her authority right from the beginning, and the kids being so young they couldn't rebel or understand. However I bet that would have changed a few years down the line when Bella and Cece were adolescents. She probably would have had major problems as they asserted their own characters. I reckon they would have left home and run off pretty young. Its sad that nobody in the family tried to make them see their problems and face up to them sooner it could have made a difference and things may not have ended the way that they did.
