I’d like to know how the people who are piling on the Duggars would have handled a similar situation if it were their son and daughters.
I’d be in jail.
Exactly, they are saying they would hang him if Josh was their son - yeah right.
I am glad Law Enforcement were never called in because I never told anyone until 28 years later to my mother. It would made matter worse for me. I told my mother that I forgave them and she must too must forgive them for what they did do me. Yes I was also molested by Teenagers and children in a span of 5 years, but they have grown into mature responsible adults and I feel comfortable being around them since they are my cousins. They are not the teenagers nor children anymore. They grew and so did I.
My mother and I figure that they too were molested by someone also for them to have done it to me. As for the Adult though, he should have known better he remained a jerk and I remained far away from him as possible. God took care of him - he died in an accident.
Now I wonder about Josh, the Duggar parents seem very nice and trusting. I wonder if they left Josh alone with someone whom they trusted for Josh to think that was ok - just a thought.
I would not put them on television.
Shunning but first I would go to the police.
Actual therapy instead of a talking tour with the family’s many pedophile friends (cop, minister).
Not searching for publicity to fund our lifestyle.
Removing the offender for a long time.
And when, years later, the offender made incest jokes in public to torture his victims, remove him from the home altogether.
Of course those people are without sin, especially sexual sin, so their kids obviously would never do that.
