    Even if “blanket training” for babies was the only thing I knew about them, I would still want their parenting practices investigated. To deny & punish a child’s appropriate & developmentally normal curiosity is, in my opinion, a form of mistreatment.

  • @reetz5624

    I never believed Michelle's soft spoken Mother Theresa act. You can't have that much control over 20 human beings without a forceful hand and a lot of yelling and strict discipline.. A part of their brainwashing is to make the kids think it's their idea to behave and fall in line. As far as Jim Bob goes, he's got a God complex going on where his children worship everything he says and teaches them to never second guess him. He's one shifty dude

      Well said! I agree, you can’t have that much extreme control over 19 kids by acting passive and speaking in childish whispers. There are major scare tactics going on behind closed doors. I hate when someone says “they seem so nice”, everyone SEEMS nice. It’s very easy to act friendly in public but be completely different, actually it’s an epidemic among humans.

      Sometimes i like to compare the Duggars to the Radfords (britains biggest family. They have a vlog on youtube and are currently isolating with 19 kids age 2mnths to 26?). Its a LOT more rowdy. Both sets of kids are well behaved and polite and nice. But you can tell the Radfords are a normal family - not too strict and a bit chaotic.

      Bianca Cox Because sadly she’s been brainwashed her entire life to believe that the choice of leaving your husband does not even exist. It’s not even an option for her, and her own parents, siblings, and the Duggars ensure that she is reminded of that on a daily basis. She’s essentially been raised in a cult from birth that has drilled into her brain that she has no autonomy, that she only exists to please the men in her life, she has no real world skills or preparedness, and on top of everything she has always been taught that anything wrong that the men in her life do is HER fault. She 100% has been made to believe that Josh’s cheating, and God only know what other shenanigans, that have taken place during her marriage were because of her. SHE didn’t please him enough. SHE wasn’t “joyfully available” 🤮 enough. If only SHE had done x,y,z this would have never happened. These are all the teachings of Bill Gothard, which her parents abided by as well as the Duggars. She doesn’t know any other way of life, and her confidence and self worth has been stomped down to such an extreme extent her entire life that there is very little, if any, of it left. On the outside looking in, leaving may seem like an easy choice to make, but sadly Anna doesn’t even see that as a possibility. Every single person in her life has failed her and set her up for a lifetime of guilt and shame. She sees no other option, and the men in her life controlling her ensure that it stays that way. This was the life that was chosen for her via her own father and Jim Bob. My heart breaks for her and her kids.

I find it disgusting to buy used shoes - - some things, you just wouldn't want to wear that you don't know who wore it before you. I can understand used shoes if they were hand-me-downs from your older sister, but not from a second-hand store.

    Michelle was also cited for implying that Anna Duggar wasn't 'joyfully available' enough, hence Josh's Ashley-Madison account scandal and his alleged encounter with a strip club dancer. And while I'd stopped watching the show long before the two were expecting their first child, I read that Anna's mother wasn't present for the birth but Michelle Duggar WAS in the delivery room. I'm very fond of my mother-in-law but I would never consent to her being present at such an intimate time with me in a vulnerable (and butt-naked) state. Those TLC filming contracts create way too much compromise and intrusion into privacy.

If they negotiate with all those adults separately, they run the risk of one sibling taking X dollars and a different sibling getting Y dollars and then the next sibling is like, 'I deserve more than that sibling because I am on camera more". Then someone could say, "But you gave her 3x what I agreed to. If it's not equal, I'm out." TLC acted in the way that was most profitable. One dude. One contract. Less $$ to pay out.

    Organizations like “A Minor Consideration” was created by a former child actor who was hardly making any money & working insane hours. And the biggest problem (like Jim Bob is doing) was the parents were able to get & spend all the money on themselves. So when they became an adult, they had zero money, whatsoever, to show for all the years they worked so hard. They fought hard to put these laws into place to protect kids. Now they desperately need to work just as hard to create the same laws to protect children of reality shows. Set up with trusts so the parents can’t spend the money. And this law needs to be made that apply to every state.

    • @debbienpeters
      @debbienpeters 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Heidi Blake in general, child laws are all over the place. Parents have a lot more control over the kids than most people understand. It’s a weird thing to say without backup, but most laws involving children seem to protect the parents more than the kids. My parents stole thousands from me. But the law favors them, cause they claim they spent all this money on me, ect so by law they can legally take money from me without consequences. In my case, my parents gave money to my brother that was legally mine, but used laws to justify them having control over my money, that was suppose to pay for college, for themselves and my brother, leaving me basically penniless and homeless when I was 18.

    The family has been in the public eye for so long that it was only a matter of time before their past caught up with them in the investigation against Josh and hidden information coming to light.
    This family has talked so much about hidden sin and coming clean about hidden sin, but what about the sins of Josh that were not public knowledge until recently, or the sins of Jim Bob not paying his children?

Still, I don't know if Jill's parents would ever speak to her again if her husband actually went through with a book.
    I'm from Arkansas and I think we need to make a few new rules about these kids on reality shows. Someone like Derrick will have to bring that about since I guess the Duggars are our only TLC "celebrities". OR, maybe TLC should be held accountable for not insuring that these children get paid, I dunno.
    I think Derrick is a smart guy who will do the right thing but, dang it, he needs help. He shouldn't have to be the lone David against that Goliath empire. Some of the others should stand with him for the sake of the little kids still at home.

      If you get involved with the local legislature, don't forget the exploited kids of TH-cam. Their parents are making far more money off of them then reality tv kids, and have absolutely no oversight as they are filmed in their own homes by their parents. The need also goes well beyond payment. These kids need basic rights regarding schooling, working hours and access to mandated reporters, etc.
      Katie maintains that Derrick somehow made it through TLC's clutches without signing so much as an NDA, which is not true of the others. I don't think anyone can help him with risking their own legal position. He needs the help of lawyers and legislators to unravel this mess.

      There was one episode after they had moved into their new house and the kids a little older that Michelle’s best friend cut her hair off like to just below her shoulders and straightened it and put nice make up on her. She actually looked really good AND you could tell that Michelle really liked it as well as all the kids But Jim Bob IMMEDIATELY said ...something to the affect “oh NO Michelle I don’t really care for that style at all...I really prepare your previous hairstyle”...it seemed like a real blow to Michelle you could tell ...but she told the kids ...”this was fun for today but Dad likes my hair better the other way so tomorrow the curls come back...you could tell that Michelle’s best friend was pissed at him....
      I think he DID like it...I think he DID see how much prettier the style was on Michelle and immediately felt threatened by that beauty and wanted to immediately squash it before someone else came along and thought she was pretty too!!
      Wow...that’s TRUE LOVE for ya! And it shows just how insecure Jim Bob really is!!
      When I get a new hairstyle and feel it makes me look pretty I’m here to tell you when I get home my husband is ALWAYS complementing my new improved look right along with me👍❤️

    I became acquainted with a woman who was a member of one of those mega churches. For some reason she took interest in me as a young single mother. She was a stay at home mother and they were well off. She always tried to get me to go to their church, and she gave me a book, Training Up Your Child, by the Pearls. I started reading it, and I was disgusted, they talk about flicking an infant learning to breastfeed. I only gets worse from there. I never answered her calls again.

    I didn't discover the Duggers until Derick was courting Jill and I remember how Michelle proudly explained how the children all had their duties, how the older kids were expected to taking full responsibility for a certain amount of their younger siblings, how everyone had laundry, cooking, dishes and so on duties....by the time she finished she was left with some home schooling and to keep having more babies for her older girls to take care of. I'm sorry, I do not care for her or Jim Bob. You know, having as many babies as possible was "normal* a 100 years ago because the family needed .more children to work the crops etc. I doubt seriously that God wanted people to procreate to crowd even more the already over crowded world. Mom's could stay home with their children 50 years ago but no longer....it now takes both parents to make a living.
