Disinviting them from their grandchild's birthday party, etc., qualifies as crazy in my book.

I guess you missed the part about the inlaws not showing up to their wedding because they didn't like her.

There's probably a whole lot more to the story than the fricking cookie incident. That one situation wasn't so much about the cookie as much as it had built up to that and she decided to use that as an outlet to her emotions.

There isn't a married woman out there alive that hasn't thought about not inviting her inlaws to a party or two. Come on man.

Seemed like she did it constantly.

The beginning of the story started out as two cheesy starry eyed lovers madly in love with one another.
She talks about how she didn't deserve him, how great of a man he was, had her daughters sing to their daddy that he was a hero, etc. If anything, she was annoying in the opposite way. I don't get where you're saying she pestered him the entire time. She starting doing that when: 1. she was pregnant, and 2. he started working out and started ignoring her. That was about halfway into the story. I'm gonna say it again. Pregnant women can be erratic and irrational on a fricking dime. Makes sense to me that she would start flying off the handle there.


I feel like you got it in your head that you watched this and kind of had sympathy for Chris Watts so anything the wife did, you didn't pay full attention to the story or missed pieces of it and connected the dots any old way you wanted them to be. I'm not saying she's completely void of fault in the way she acted. But the stuff you're choosing to harp on can easily be explained and simply say that she was annoying. There is nothing about the way that she acted that would tell me she deserved to be killed. Nothing.

How do you explain what Chris Watts did? You can't.
