Dugger Wedding...... Opinions?

[Clarinetbabe95]

Hey this is for all of you 17 kids and counting fans who tuned into the Duggar Wedding. Any thoughts?

 

[Cinderelli16]

It was seriously the most ridiculous thing I have EVER seen.
I mean their first kiss was on their wedding day, and they actually had chaperones whenever they would go out, so that way they wouldn't go against their morals, and kiss. I mean whatever it's their religion, but I find it really weird.

Parents are sending mixed messages. OK so the parents can have sex 18 times just to promote themselves and get on TV and become fame*****s, but the kids can't kiss until their wedding? I smell a hypocrite.

 

[Clarinetbabe95]

Yeah, It was really wierd. Especially the whole talk with his dad. WTh?????

 

[hkrox]

I'd have to give it a . The cd they were listening to in the car was so weird.

 

[EeyoreFan1]

I thought that even though it was EXTREMELY bizarre, the first kiss being their wedding kiss is kind of cute. I could never do that, nor do I exactly agree with it, but it makes it a little more special I guess. The talk with the dad, and the CD, that was way out of line, in my opinion. I mean, to each his own, and I have to admire the self discipline it seems that their lives entail, but I could never live like that.

I didn't watch it. I saw all the commercials promoting it while watching Jon and Kate plus 8 but I did not want to watch it at all.

That family just rubs me the wrong way.. idk. I know a family with 13 kids and they're all "normal".. not to be mean or anything. Like it's just the way these kids dress that is strange...

idk my thoughts are getting all jumbled together..

 

[HSMndLKfan92]

I saw it. I put the religious factor aside and just watched.

 

[STOPxmickeytime]

I watched part of it.
I thought that the dad giving his son "the birds and the bees" speech was a little awkward, but that's to be expected.

And sure, they take their religion to what some might call an extreme level.
But if it works for them, who cares?

 

[BabyPiglet]

Like I've said before, those parents creep me out. They're such hypocrites. The kids can't watch TV yet the parents exploit them all over it.

I watched a little bit of the episode as I was flipping through the channels. No kissing and only side hugs? How everyone you date gets a little peice of your heart? How JimBob was saying that guys should listen to what their woman says even though it'll only be small and petty? And how because Michelle (the mom) dates before marriage, she brought baggage in?

Anyway, the guys messed up. He just wants to control the life of everyone he can.

Those poor kids are so sheltered, they have no idea what the real world is. And the poor girls, all they do is take care of the house and the younger kids. None of them get to just be...kids, ya know?

And then at the wedding the brides dad said how authority of her was being transfered to the husband now. AUTHORITY!?

But the son who got married and his bride looked really cute together, hopefully he'll be a better man than his dad.

 

[pigletgirl]

It was weird.
I now know what I dont want in a wedding!

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

I only saw the commercials but I caught enough.
1) We've never kissed.
2) It's like legos!
and
3) Them listening to the "Your Wedding Night" tape.

I've heard about the chaperoned dates and stuff though.

The legos thing was so stupid. What a way to describe sex. And since the kids had been homeschooled and so sheltered, if his dad hadn't had "the talk" at TWENTY would the son even know what to do? Seriously!?

If they had to be chaperoned, what is the point of having morals? Can't they control themselves? I mean if you are really committed to something it shouldn't be so hard that you'd need a chaperone.

 

[Clarinetbabe95]

Yeah. I really think they are sheltered and not giving them any time in the real world is going to hurt them in the long run. And I agree, if they choose not to have their first kiss until marriage, then they shouldn't need a chaperone if that is what they both want! I also didn't like when both sets if parents went on stage to announce the kiss and the song just plain confused me! But, I know I will NOT see my husband before my wedding and if they're going traditional why did they do that?!

that we know of lol.
and they were never married?
watlol

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

Well.. they previously used BC, and when they had a couple of miscarriages they thought God was punishing them for using BC.

Soo... no BC for them and the kids ensue. No big deal, even if I disagree with "God is punishing you"

They would probably be shocked to know what their older kids know about sex and whatnot. I know they screen the internet, but there are ways to get around that!

You betcha he knew. He's a 20 year old BOY.

Ha.

Ha.

Yeah, I mean even if nobody ever tells you about it. You just kinda...know.

 

[pigletgirl]

And the parents of kids who wait to tell them about it, are always shocked to know how much their kids already knew.

He probably found it humorous to listen to his dad about the 'talk'.
