If not there,are lots of mouths to feed. Josh could go back to selling used cars.

People were buying used cars from that asshole. Even before I knew about his past, I would never have bought a used car from him. I've driven used cars my whole life, and I'm careful about where I get them. Some salesmen down here bring up their 'faith' when they're talking to you, and those are the last ones that I would buy anything from.

Would be nice to give the state an exscuse to take all their children away from yheir little cult.

they were the legally responsible parties for all of their children. They failed all of them, while parading them around and making money off of them and "blanket training" them (a horror) ...makes the Gosselins look like a picnic...and continue to while Josh takes all the heat.

He had no sane adult to talk to or model his behavior. He was as trapped as the rest of them. He had no chance. Your parents teach you what is right and wrong and They Knew...if he had hid it, but he didn't. They knew and they covered it up which endangered their daughters continually until the statue of limitations had run out. That was not his decision it was theirs.

He had no contact with normal people. He did not go to school. I'm sorry, but he's as much a victim as the girls. No, not the same way and there is a difference, but he had no other role model and the guilt ate him up anyway. I'd bet money that Jim Bob has a history, as well. He did not grow up on television, so we'll never know. But, the apple does not fall far from the tree.

the family is sick

direct victims, still bear the guilt...sometimes even more because they cannot stop it, thinking of the 12 year old girl who was probably having periods, so she was safe. And the other boys and girls knew and could do nothing...because the first born son is the "chosen prince". What a mess.

I'll even give Michelle a bit of a break because her only role was to idolize her husband and stay barefoot and pregnant..her entire marriage. So what could she do? It all comes down to their own religious insanity...it all lays at the feet of Jim Bob Duggar. He's the Patriarch...the god of the family...the one who should be banned, shamed, and blamed. And what does he say? It was a rough time for our family to find out what Josh did...way back then. He's the sickest one of all, IMO.

she and her sick showboating husband do not give a damn about those kids

and shame on the people who tune in to this freak show

She could have stopped that shit a long time ago, but she chose to go along with it. Just because she acts like she's one of the kids doesn't mean she isn't an adult with responsibilities. She's a mother who continued to allow her children to be victimized, all in the name of her fucked-up religion. She's an adult. She's as much to blame as Jim Bob.

were 90% scathing. I and many others, I'm sure, emailed TLC and they are smart people there. Also at least one major brand said they would not advertise. That's probably the real reason.

They've got a dwarf couple and another mega family that are musicians in the line up now. Easy come, easy go. Very sad.

Not the same kind of victim as his sisters, but a victim nonetheless. How, in his isolation, taught by those parents, was he supposed to know right from wrong?

most abusers were abused. that's my belief.

They had to know that as their "fame" grew, people would start looking at their backgrounds.

Perhaps the christian community will adopt them and pay them 40K a week....NOT !!!

Their frugal tips will be put to the test right away..

feeling "above it all". That's why it takes a hard situation to begin to bring awakening...to their fans, as well as their "mentors" and pals.

Huckabee's Facebook got flooded with angry ex-voters and people. RW people/enablers are resigning as we speak...most of whom had at least an inkling if not direct knowledge. I haven't seen anyone else in the public eye support them, I could be wrong, I just got up. But what could he do...they were coded into his website.

The only thing they "Discover" or "Learn" anymore is taking advantage of people's baser instincts and making a hell of a lot of money.

Homeschool family, Nashville singers, 14 kids.

Let's hope they aren't some cult. Their past doesn't bode well, however. Maybe it's the stress on the family of being perfect all the time and on the road, I assume, and not having normal lives? Who knows.

do.

it would be difficult to find a family that is so bizarre as the duggars are.

the duggars are against kissing before marriage and even oppose holding hands until they are at least engaged. and then there is the whole chaperone thing .

and of course the whole deal with having so many kids.

even the duggar kids are unable to find someone to marry with a family similar to them. usually the women will wear pants and other stupid shit they are opposed to.

First "Honey Boo Boo" and now the Duggars.

"Reality" (HAR!) shows based on dysfunctional (at best) families.

for killing off the learning on their channel. :x

If we're going by what TMZ has reported, which is what the linked article is quoting, it's a bit behind.

If TLC couldn't continue to support Honey BooBoo because her mom had taken up with the man who'd molested her sister, they certainly cannot support Jim and Michelle Duggar's obstruction and dereliction of parental duty in the handling of their son's molesting his sisters!


rocktivity

The family will have figure out how to work legitimate jobs. I do not consider getting paid for having babies much of a career path! And I am not entitled to an opinion since I have never watch the show!!

and keep trying to cut their assistance

all the padded drama drives me up the wall.

Rush Limpballs did, The show will become unprofitable and they will have to decide whether to prop it up or toss it out. Guess which one they'll do?

Even a show without Josh would be haunted by his crimes and the crimes of his parents and church elders.
