Duggar #18
 

I just saw here the Duggars are pregnant with #18. I'm speechless!

I think it's wrong. Not horrible, but what the heck are they trying to prove except that they have sex a million times a second. And they say dogs should be neutered!

I guess that wasn't very nice of me...but geez!

They seem like very nice people and the children appear to be well behaved. He's a realtor I think and they are not on welfare.

Oh I know, they are very above board and making it on their own. The bottom line is I just don't understand and that's okay. I, personally would be embarassed to have that many. I try not to worry about what people think, but I would be afraid 'rabbits' would pop into mind...LOL

I would be stark raving mad if I had that many kids. They must be on call 24/7 with all those kids but they seem to love it. Fortunately for the world, most people don't.

My aunt and uncle had 16 kids, but we're Irish:D

I forgot that my 'good' sister-in-law is the youngest of 12.

There's a girl in my town that has 7 & she's only 30. I think it's insane, but she plans to have as many as often as she can until she can't anymore. She homeschools them & makes their clothes. They are very well behaved.

There was also a family in my town that had 21 children & one died. When I was in the seventh grade there was one kid from their family in every grade & one grade had twins.

I understand that they are supporting the kids with out government assistance, But, I don't get it? Why?

As a population we are already draining the world of its resources.

After last week's negative results, I'm still feeling a little sorry for myself. I don't understand why they are blessed with 18 children, and other people like myself are unable to have even 1.

Dobie what I don't understand is the people that are blessed with children and then abuse and mistreat them when you would love one and give it a good home. I guess we just have to remember God has a special plan.

Dobie,

You will hold a baby in your arms and raise it and be a wonderful Mom. God has
a reason for this for you. I know that you are suffering though and I wish there was a way to change it for you!

My .02 about the Duggars is very judgemental, but I think they are whacked out!

I feel bad that I'm judging these people, but it is what it is.

I've watched the tv specials, and it's obvious that the kids are well taken care of and seem happy - I just wonder if they get the individual attention that kids needs.

I agree. I'm sure that they have something worked out to have one-on-one time with each child. I have some friends that have 9 kids and I know that the Mom takes each child out to eat so she has some one-on-one time with each of them.

The Duggars have worked out a system where the older children help out with the younger chldren. It would certainly help with the parents stress level. The children seem to be very well behaved. I think that it's great that they are taking care of their family without any financial help.
