When Travis said "Family is the most important thing in the world", it sounded so flat and rehearsed. And then he hints at the reason why family, perhaps, is not worth the self destruction.
Fast forward to that chapter in the Hackett's house, you hear his ma brutally push the "good boy protects his family no matter what" narrative, while Travis, a 56 years old man, has the body language of a child punished.
No wonder he carries so much conflict within himself. A wonder, though, that he didn't turn even worse.

When Constance spat "Murderous bitch!" at Laura, I love how Travis just immediately spat back, "Ma, shut the fuck up!" 🤣
He defended her so fast! He didn't even think about it, he just did it. I love that so much. ❤

Travis just keeping back and staying quiet like the obedient dog
Very true. Because...
They trained him well…
Which is why it's so much more impressive that he does not shoot Laura when they tell him to do so:
And it hurts him to do that:
Well trained indeed... and still he does not shoot her. (It also suggests that he has silver bullets in his pistol?)
We all know why most fanfictions with Travis as an important part are tagged with "former child abuse".
Anyway here is the reaction of Travis if you shoot Constance:
One thing I constantly think about is the fact that Travis has to know that Laura is infected because the last time he saw her she was missing an eye...
And they meet again and Laura has two:
I would have loved to see any real reaction about that from Travis but I guess that is just another thing the developers didn't get around to add.
Because the inner monologue had to be something like "Why the fuck is Laura here? Oh shit, she is bitten and she is in our house and she is the one who killed Kaylee and mom knows but they don't know she has been bitten and when will she change? What the fuck am I going to do? Oh shit..."
That would explain why Travis did not react any more than he did when Laura gets shot, because he knows she might get up again?
