Disappointed and Disgusted I am. It does explain one GIANT room for the girls and a separate one for the boys. All those girls in one room, someone would notice if Josh creeped in.
I feel for those girls. I don’t know if they got counseling and therapy. Perhaps they did, but it’s bound to affect their relationships with men.
I see these school pictures on the news of children that have been abused horribly, smiling for the camera but at the time no one helping them get away from the abuse. What goes on behind the pictures. Makes me sick.
True about the bedrooms. I didn’t think it thru that far...
One thing from the show jumped to my mind (when I first read of this horrible story). The entire family was driving to visit another “quiver full” family. They had two vans (and used walkie talkies to communicate.) Jim Bob drove one, and teenage Josh drove the other one, NOT the adult parent, Michelle. I just found it weird. Why let a NEW driver take the wheel with half the kids of the family in it; while the other parent just “say.” It’s so minor, but I think it speaks to the family dynamic.
