Police: Duggars Used A Rod To Spank Their Kids

A 2006 police report detailing Josh Duggar’s molestation of his sisters has caused a media firestorm, yet the document has also revealed another detail that the Duggar family has yet to address: namely, the assertion by one of their children that Jim Bob and Michelle use a rod to spank them.

The allegations surfaced in the police report, which was released in a redacted form last week by In Touch Weekly. The report includes a summary of a conversation which occurred between an investigator and one of the Duggar children, who remains unnamed.

“Inv. Taylor asked [redacted] about getting spanked. [redacted] said that when [redacted] is bad that [redacted] mother and dad spank [redacted]. Inv. Taylor asked what they use to spank. [redacted] said they have a rod. Inv. Taylor asked if they do this to all the kids and [redacted] said yes. Inv. Taylor asked if they leave any bruising [redacted] said no.”

What is hurting the victims is the media and obsessive idiots bringing what happened up when they had put what happened behind them.

Yeah. The media is causing this.

Haven't you heard? You'll want to tune in next week for a prime-time two part exclusive interview with the Duggars as they discuss how sad they are that their son was caught.

Set the VCR and cancel your plans so that you can watch as Jim Bob and his wife piously complain on national TV that they have no privacy since pimping out their children to fund their lifestyle years ago.

On FOX, Twitter, and coming soon to a very special issue of People Magazine.

"You're seriously not denying hate Duggar, are you? It would be laughable if you are.

Sadly, people like you drive those in need of repentance away from Christianity. Who wants to seek repentance for their sins if they knew heartless people will continue to bring up their failings.

You, more than Duggar, will have a lot to answer for before God.

More than a deviant who gets turned on by his five year-old sister? Okay then.

I've pretty much come to the conclusion that you're a member of the freaky Gothard cult. Nothing else explains your foaming-at-the-mouth hysterical defense of a sex pervert and his enablers.

Funny thing...in your very interesting posting history, I found a post decrying (rightfully) the sexual abuse of a 14 year-old. Yet, when a 14 year-old is doing the abusing, you wail and cry over him, as though he were the victim.

You're as desperately in need of help as those freaks, the Duggars. So until you come to that realization and avail yourself of said help, you continue to defend perverts in your spittle-flecked posts. And try to sleep well at night.

Yeah, I have my own thoughts on that.

He started out on FR as a vociferous, reasonably polite anti-RINO poster, went quiet for a couple of months, and came back in 2012, seemingly having undergone a conversion to the church of Mitt Romney. He did a complete 180. Now he's very much pro-RINO, and very nasty....spends his time on the board snarling at people who have no use for liberal Republicans. The vast majority of his posts are bristling with hostility.

Makes me wonder if he hasn't been here before.

Are you talking about the same Jesus who said this?

“But whoever shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.”

Too bad there’s no sea in Arkansas.

If you don't think God can forgive Josh Duggar or anyone else, you're preaching a FALSE gospel.

There is nothing Christian about implying someone can't be forgiven. That is perversion of the gospel.

Then you are denying that Jesus despised child abusers?

With regard to children, the Biblical terms “rod” and “discipline” should be interpreted metaphorically as tools for guidance, not instruments for the inculcation of fear. This is not to say that punishment is to be prohibited. Rather, positive reinforcement of positive behaviour should predominate, rather than aversive training. Language and reasoning should be tools for guidance. Furthermore, positive and negative parental reactions to the child's actions should be measured and proportionate to each other. Do not lavish rewards for normative behaviour. However, do praise when merited. Special rewards should be given for exceptional deeds. Similarly, do not chastise for minor indiscretions. In every instance explain to the child why parental actions are being taken, and be sure the child is able to understand the reasoning. A very young child will not be able to think in terms of “good” and “bad” but will simply be acting in accord with stimulus/response mechanisms. The brain is a very fragile organ, and a child's brain is easily injured.
