For me, it’s the “white collar” crime storylines. This is personal to me because my father went to prison for fraud. It’s weird because it manifests in different ways.

With Teresa, her kids were going through the same thing as me while it was happening. I’m older than them but I really was hit hard with the dorter’s reactions to the circumstances that were completely out of their control.

With Erika, I feel triggered by her and feel like I see right through her. I can see that she truly has convinced herself that she’s done nothing wrong. That is similar to how my father handled things.

With Jen Shah, it’s complicated. I have no empathy for her and I can see through her fake tears. She really believes she is the victim. I feel sad for her family and I get triggered when I see people speculating on whether her family knew and all the cold assumptions that are made. I saw speculations online about my father and people saying that his kids knew when of course, I know that we didn’t. It’s extremely hurtful, on top of going through all the emotions of realizing your parent isn’t who you thought they were your entire life.

I am no contact with half of my family because of my father’s actions and those who blindly support him and buy into his lies. It’s sad but it’s what’s best for me. So yeah, mine is really personal!
