What, people think this family is well adjusted?

I'm betting the collective therapy bill of all those kids could pay for china's national debt.

People have been saying poo poo for years like "what's the problem, they aren't on welfare, they aren't starving, they have clothes and a place to sleep, seems like a great family to me"

Sanatorum said something about how if Bruce Jenner says he's a woman, he's a woman. No way they'd back that.

They campaigned for him in 2012. I'm surprised him being Catholic wasn't a deal-breaker.

Their cult's power of shame and victim blaming would be incredibly hard to overcome no matter what the law was. It's hard enough for abuse victims in regular society.

Even if he's not actually gay it's possible she realized "you have no education, no skills, and your family's gravy train is over. How are we supposed to make a living?"

But hey, congrats on using your freak show family to destroy innocent lives and then write off your awful choices as God's will.

It should have been obvious long ago that the duggar cult was toxic and dangerous to everyone involved. The religious nutters were going to always support them no matter what but it was ridiculous to see so many other people saying stuff like "the kids aren't starving or bruised, I don't see the problem here"

this is one strangely successful family, there are hundreds of other quiverfull families packed into trailers barely scratching out a living.

This was them before the show and even early into it they were still all about thrift shop clothes and feeding the whole family subsistence-level garbage from Aldi. Then TV built them a house and got them all stylists.

Josh became a hilarious tubbo once he got out on the road and eating chickfila twice a day.

Oh, and they are basically grifters.

It's funny how when they first got on TV they talked about saving money every way possible like on clothes and eating subsistence level garbage and then when the ratings took off they were like gently caress that,give us all this poo poo for free. And nowtthat the TV gravy train is over they really have to double down on the mooching.

Yeah, they think Catholics worship the pope and Mary aren't actually going to heaven. There are some funny Chick tracts that treat Catholics the same as Muslims and atheists.

My grandma was a pretty devout Irish Catholic and when she was on her way with her seventh child she asked her priest if she could have an abortion and he was all like yeah go for it.

I think it's funny that fringe denonimations like the Quiverfulls think Catholics are brainwashed zombies getting messages beamed to them from the antenna under the Pope's giant hat. I'm not even religious but I've cited my Catholic background to get out of conversations with proselytizers because they think I'm in an even crazier cult.

Yep. Saying "I'm Catholic" is definitely the best way to get rid of JWs and Mormons. They think they can win over atheists or agnostics.

When did they go from "identical shapeless outfits" to "fashionable clothes and tons of makeup"? Was it for TV, to marry them off, or what.
