Congrats to them!

I'm really tired of hearing about this family every few months....but congrats to them, I guess.

disneydance · 10-09-2009, 06:39 PM

I just saw this on Facebook seriously AGAIN
Well at least it's Anna's not Michelles so congrats to them

Sparx · 10-09-2009, 06:45 PM

i've been thinking about this recently.

when jimbob and michelle first tried to get pregnant, michelle had a miscarriage. which they believed was god punishing them. they also believe the blood of adopted children is unpure (whatever that means).

well, women michelle's age aren't really supposed to be having babies just on the biological sense, kwim? michelle is getting really close to going through menopause. and the later in life you have your children, the more likely you are to have a miscarriage or serious birth defects.

i really just wonder what they would do, as a family, in that case. i'm sure their family physician has warned her about this. and if they view a miscarriage as a punishment from god(

) what are they going to think when her body is just telling her she's too old to have a baby?

eh. these are just the things i think about while the show is on. that, and how much money they're getting from tlc when they make 75k an episode and don't pay any taxes.

(yet they still shop at bargain stores and have collection jars in all the grocery stores)

K-Shong99 · 10-09-2009, 06:52 PM

so, i'm not usually one to judge...

but i think this whole family is off their rocker.
but that's just my opinion.
no one needs that many kids.
it's not physically or mentally healthy.

congrats on the new baby though.
i wonder if they'll have 357,868,766 kids too.

pigletgirl · 10-09-2009, 06:57 PM

You know shelby that brings up a good point! i know that michelle did mention that she was aware of the complications that may arise with this current pregnancy, and they were willing to risk it.

I do wonder what they would do if their child was born with down syndrome or something??

ETA: I bet josh has 10 kids....they're just getting started!

I agree with Sparx (sorry- I forgot your name!). Although, this is Josh and Anna, not Michelle and Jim Bob. So it's different. But Michelle and Jim Bob are getting a little outragious. I know it's their religion and stuff but it's a little much. I'm happy for Josh and Anna though.

cindys_castle2011 · 10-09-2009, 08:11 PM

Ahww, (:

And, I don't really care about the whole "Michelle needs to stop having kids". I mean it's her body, as long she's not putting the baby in any serious danger then all power to her. I think if it came to a point where it was dangerous she would quit.

I don't necessarily agree with the not paying taxes thing. But whatever I can't do anything about that and I'm in no place to judge her.

it already is dangerous, and she's not quitting.

and are you just speaking of emotional/psychological danger or physical? where on that would you place risking a miscarriage, mental retardation, down syndrome, and autism?

what about the serious lack in a proper education? proper socialization? exploiting the children on television? teaching them to cheat on their taxes? (sorry i really cannot get over that one)

i'm not trying to pick a fight, i'm just wondering how everyone else feels about this past that point of "omg they need to stop having children!"

and not to you know, generalize or anything, but people who generally believe that a miscarriage is punishment from god also probably don't "believe" in things like autism or down syndrome, kwim?

And that money sure ain't going to college funds for the kids...

oh, of course not. actually, after about one season, they could send everyone through for their doctorate at harvard and have enough left over for a few months in disney world.

(and they've had a lot more than 1 season)

and i mean, if you add in all that tax money that theyre NOT paying, thats at least enough for grandbaby duggar to i don't know, buy a baseball team?

Princess Brittany · 10-09-2009, 10:03 PM

Congrats to them!!!

Honestly its not really anyones place to judge this family, but I totally think that it is great that they have this many kids. All that matters is if they take care of the properly and they are fully prepared for problems in upcoming births (ex. disabilities and such do to Michelle's age).

Anyways Congrats!!

Maybe it's going to Michelle's Lingerie Fund? I dunno, that might be against God.

There's always the chance they're giving it to charity and I wouldn't put it past them, but do they even support any charities outside the Quiverfull stuff? It's not like they pay for anything, everything's either paid for/donated by TLC or some other "generous" foundation, or it's tax-deductible.
