  The financial burden alone! My goodness

  The endless interviews, programs and what they must get for advertising products during there shows, must be very lucrative.

  I still think that if they chose to have that many children that they shouldn't exploit them on TV...on the other hand, I am at fault too 'cause I like to watch them!.

  I think they said that their monthly $ for essentials such as nappies, milk bread etc is $2000US. And have you seen their pantry? Like a mini supermarket.

  As I said before: I'm fascinated!

  Sad...aren't I!

  how many people do you know who were caught and df'd because they bragged about what they did?.

  are these people just dummies?

  I knew of a sister that continually used to go and have sex with someone, then confess to the elders.

  Her excuse?

  I needed to 'do it' to get it out of my system!

  This has some very strong opinions of the family if you read the responses.

  And I have to agree with some of them. Especially the 'buddy' system they have outlined. If you cannot bring up your children without assigning them a 'buddy' in the form of an older bro or sis, who, in all respects, 'raises them', then I think it may be time to STOP having kids. Just my opinion.

  Google Duggars and their website will come up.

  Check out their favourite website links and have a look at the wholesome swimwear site! To each their own I guess!!!

  They have the fish symbol on their website...so I'm guessing they are Born Agains?

  I watched the latest show last night. 10 Boys and 7 girls, and no plans to stop!

  And the big house they built...7000sqm...they own it outright. Must be profitable to have interviews every week...your own programs... although I did notice while they were fitting out the house with appliances, furniture, plants etc that they zoomed in on the brands eg fridgidaire. Makes me wonder if they got it all for free if they advertised it on their shows.

  I wonder if that would work for me...

  I have 5 kids, and it's a handful with them everyday, let alone 16, and maybe having more!!!

  And they are home schooled...so no break for mum and dad!

  I do think it's a little unfair on the kids though as it seems they have too many responsibilities for their age.

  Don't get me wrong, I'm all for chores but I don't think it's right for children to be doing things like laundry and looking after little ones constantly. It makes them grow up too fast.

  But they seem happy enough...

  I only wish my kids could be as tidy as theirs...sigh!

  please don't leave.

  we do care about you and want to offer our support of you and your family in what must be very difficult circumstances.. the reason i called for assistance from a forum moderator was because i was afraid my alligator mouth would overload my hippopotamus behind where you were concerned.

  it does that sometimes.. frannie.

  I was wondering if you had forgotten to take some medication or something

  I should be offended and become all 'high and mighty' again...

  sigh...but don't want to be trashed again (today anyway)...

  so lucky for you I don't offend easily!

  Nah... doesn't bother me...makes for some interesting debate as my last thread showed. I'm automatically logged on when I come to this site, and it's too much of a pain to sign out and sign back in. Takes too long as well as I don't have broadband yet!

  By the way, just in case you were all thinking I was a tad schizophrenic, my hubby also uses this id to post his comments. That's why my comments sometimes are contradicting, as auldsoul saw regarding his post. We don't always see 'eye to eye' either. Makes things interesting!
