Y O J....and I find that very sad. After watching the Duggar family I feel somehow I have failed as a parent. My kids ask for something and right away I see that they get it but unfortuanately they just want more and more and more....they have no needs just wants....how selfish.
Many have mentioned that the mom doesn't do anything that the children are doing all the work...I feel that there is alot going on in this house and the children are helping out....just as families should do...I'm sure that while Jana is making supper mom is not taking a nap...she probably is dealing with a little one...and I am also sure that someone is helping Jana....these kids do not look like they are being deprived....they have many things....my gosh...they took a month long trip in a RV and saw many things that my kids will never get to see because we can't afford it...well maybe we could if we weren't so materalistic. I say having that many children is a personal choice and we shouldn't be bashing them. Those children are not lacking anything and I think I takes strong parents to live by your beliefs and teach your children strong morals and values....I wish I could be half as strong. There are many children in this world that are abused daily maybe we should bash those parents instead of the parents that are really do a good job. |
How do you know they are happy? You know for a fact that they are Happy?
By watching TV? How do you know if they are lacking. By watching them on TV? Do you really think any negative comments would ever be recorded by the children? If they said boo about mombob or dadbob? Do you really think that would ever be allowed? You don't think for a moment what you see on TV is fake or made up to look good? you believe everything you see on TV? You need help too.
There is a heck of alot more to a child FREE TO BE THEMSELVES than having parents run every thought word or deed. The kids don't even have their own feelings. They sound like robots. They don't even have personalities.
It's a lot easier for us to say it looks all nice and sweet and cute, and wonderful. Oh, glory they read the Good Book together - then they are perfect.
It's a television show. And not a very good one. Let them have 50 or 60 kids. Let the drones carry on the chores of the PARENTS. Whatever. They have been brain washed. They have no LIVES. My dogs have more freedom.
