 (If you want a clearer view of the situation visit youtube: American Murder: The Family Next Door)

Try to analyse the scenario above and list the right/rights of children that were violated. Defend your
answer.

Answer: What I learned from this documentary is that people who post how happy and amazing
their life is on social media are mostly the most unhappy ones. Social media is always far away
from reality. At the end of the documentary I feel like she was posting on social media to
convince herself that their life was happy and very fairytale like. Its so hearth breaking.

Godbless 
