What comedian was it who said “It’s a uterus, not a clown car”?

I extend another congratulations. I see a lot of unfounded hostility to this large family, as is fashionable right now. It seems like Population Bomb sentiments, along with some resentment about tax breaks, are still in full force.

I have been numbed to the agressive idiocy of those too narrow-minded to comprehend the joy of children.

I guess that’s a good thing...

I am putting on my best asbesto right now...because, I know I shall be flamed...but...

Though I will concede the Duggars seem like very nice people, conservative Christians, homeschoolers, yada yada yada...BUT they have made themselves a 'public' commodity by inviting the cameras into their family home and receiving payment for the intrusion (which allowed them to finally build the size home they needed). A win/win situation? Duggars get cash, notority and Lifetime gets some ratings (and a few appliance type sponsors get free publicity for the placement of their products in ChezDuggar...) No problem...except the camera tends to capture more than is intended in these reality type shows.

Mrs. D seems a bit (ok alot) spacey...detached or something. And the girls. If you have watched their shows...wow...those girls are workhorses...should kids have responsibilities absolutely...do chores...yes! Run a small laundromat day after day of their teen years...no. Sorry...but Jinger (Jinger?) looked 14 going on 40; she was decribing in great detail her laundry process and it was sad. Depressing. She was thrilled to have front loaders (in her early teens!). There was another episode where the family did a road trip...and met up with another huge family...ok...alot of similarities...things to share. And what did the camera capture...well...how about an equally spacey mom of the other fam and their teenage daughter telling a Duggar teenage daughter about her grocery shopping and pantry inventories. These girls were 16...no way should they be the chief cook, grocery impressarios for their parents large family. Again...don't bring those cameras in if you don't want the vignettes captured. These girls were spending their teen years mothering, mentoring, cooking and cleaning to excess due to the size of their family. Being responsible is one thing...but being handed a sibling (to mentor and teach) and given several hundred pounds of laundry weekly is just too much (IMO). Again...asbestos at the ready...but if you honestly have watched their programs...well, you have seen it too.

They have 17 kids already...How the heck do they find the time & energy to work on producing #18?

Now they will have exactly twice as many kids as I do, but I have more grandkids.
