Duggar #18

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.
