Okay. I started reading again. Reading posts below news stories or whatever and don't get why people are so up in arms that the duggers had another kid. Calling them publicity whores and what not. It is just JEALOUSY. Plain and simple. Jealous of what you may ask?
Jealous of the fact that here are these people that live a different way of life than most. And they have 19 children. 8 of which are teen agers and above and these are the most respectful, helpful, well rounded children with great work ethic that I have ever seen. This mother has 19 kids and never YELLS...at all. These children do their chores without backtalk, they enjoy doing things with their family, they are not into drugs, alcohol, promiscuous sex etc...or the many other issues that are "plauging" the kids in our society. How many times have you heard...I just cannot get my kid to pick up his room, I cannot get a minute of peace since my child has all these issues. And parents these days (me included) say there is nothing I can do. blah blah blah. But here you watch evidence that not all kids are like that. That there are children who do things with their family and enjoy it. The hate and accusations is because we are mad that it shoves in our face our inadequacies and perhaps if we were a little more aware about what we do and how we act and the choices we make for our 1-3 kids that maybe they could be like that. I mean I can't understand how the mother with 19 kids never yells shut up..how when her kids do act the way that she doesn't approve of she doesn't punish them, she kneels down to their level and almost whispers her expectations to them and whispers how she wants them to correct it. If anyone is qualified to be parents it is them.
Before their show they could afford their kids. They are not on any form of public assistance, they are not in debt, their kids are not suffering any and travel and do good for others. They are not preaching about things that are in our opinions detrimental or wrong like polygamy, etc... Why is it so hard to believe that they let their kids make their own decisions and their kids choose to do the "right:" things. Those kids are not brainwashed. They seem to be happy. What...OMG Their 21 year old son works, and got married and saved his first kiss for his wedding day...how horrible and wrong... and How many 21 year olds are out there still living in their parents basement or house and not contributing anything and sitting around all day smoking pot, playing video games and have no ambition in life. Wanna guess these are the same people that judge the duggars... How horrible the kids helped build the house .. God forbid children learn a skill these days and god forbid the parents teach them a usable skill. The children socialize. The parents go to things several times a year where the kids meet up with other kids. So what if they are like minded. The best way to stay on track and on the path you want to be on that won't sink you is to stay around positive people that have the same beliefs and morals that you do.
Okay I will stop now. I am not religious, I yell at my kids and am definitely not a star parent, but the difference is I recognize it and I don't say it is society or anyone elses fault my kids are the way they are. I don't fall into the comfort zone that yippee look at all the kids worse than mine or the majority of kids are the same way. . the judgement of not so stellar parents is a murmer but great parents get judged so much louder especially if they limit tv, video games etc...because we don't have the strength to do that because we believe we will be hurting our kids in some way and these people prove that our kids could be so much more. And what amazes me is this mother remembers all her kids birthdates, and can list the personality traits of all her children. I only have three and have issues with that. BTW the baby being premature had nothing to do with her age. Do people get onto twenty something year olds because they had gull stones and pre eclampsia? I did are you going to attack me because I should not have gotten pregnant because there was a chance of pre eclampsia? How are they hurting you? They recycle. They shop at second hand stores and so forth so they aren't taking away from you. Maybe if we believed and left more in gods hands we would be better off than we are too. But it is hard to do isn't it. I know I can't at this time, but boy do I wish I could.
