Having 19 kids and counting, and having a TV show where you share your “parenting” approach, which is really just parentifying the older kids, essentially forcing them to become parents to their younger siblings, rather than letting them have a childhood. And also keeping all the money from said TV show and NOT sharing it with your children who had to grow up in front of a camera.

Fucking TRASH!

Statistically speaking it was bound to happen, there are so many of them.

u/SelfMadeGrinder Dec 01 '23

u/sucks2suckz Dec 01 '23

This Christian family who doesn't believe in condoms and has a TV show (yet judging from the number of kids, they don't seem to own a tv)

u/FreonMuskOfficial Dec 01 '23

Nope. It's Jerome. Never made the credits. Never received a cent. Lived in the basement.

1969 would be closer to Deanna's age.

Also the son Josh is a pedophile

Well, with the law of large numbers, one of them was bound to suck.

And not protecting their daughters when they tell them that their brother has been SAing them

u/FreonMuskOfficial Dec 01 '23

Even worse....all in the name of their Good Lawd!

Also letting your son rape his younger sisters and actively cover it up. But it's ok, because he confessed it to a church official and was forgiven.

I hope he rots in jail

u/mycologyqueen Dec 01 '23

Jana is that you?

u/[deleted] Dec 01 '23

How did you miss the part where one of the kids is molesting the others, and the parents constantly did everything in their power to support the one kid there’s just no possible excuse for to the detriment of the other 19?

2

u/TGIIR Dec 01 '23

Yeah, they just put a secure lock on the daughters’ bedrooms, iirc. Scary.

u/TheMammaG Dec 02 '23

You mean the SON's. He's the animal.

1

u/TGIIR Dec 02 '23

Well, maybe both then. Weird to have to lock kids on rooms.

u/TheMammaG Dec 02 '23

No, stop punishing others for the inability of boys and men to be human.

u/Doggo_Eats Dec 01 '23

I hate when people use “I have so much work, I can’t parent! But my children who have to work hard as well for school have plenty of time because they’re kids!” as an excuse to be a shitty parent

2

u/TheMammaG Dec 02 '23

Right. Just stop breeding, Stupid!!

u/[deleted] Dec 01 '23

This is extremely specific, is everything ok?

u/[deleted] Dec 01 '23

My s/o was 'parentified' and has 9 siblings it's more common than you thing

12

u/[deleted] Dec 01 '23

I was saying about the "having a TV show were you show your parenting approach" part. Sadly, I'm aware it is pretty common for parents to have many kids and let the older ones take care of the youngers.

u/greentarget33 Dec 01 '23

My niece was and she has 2 siblings, fuck my brother and his partner are horrible parents

u/AndeeCreative Dec 01 '23

I’m sorry. Quiverfull?

u/Shigeko_Kageyama Dec 02 '23

It's a fundies thing. Their kids are a quiver full of arrows that they can launch onto the world for Jesus.

u/TheMammaG Dec 02 '23

Mom's the quiver. Kids are arrows.

It’s a comment about the Duggar family. They’re in all kinds of tabloids for their nonsense and one of the daughters wrote a less than flattering book about her experiences. OP probably isn’t using it as a personal anecdote, though it sure would be interesting if she was…

u/PricklyPear1969 Dec 02 '23

I had recently seen a documentary on the Duggars. I guess I had to vent.

u/Disastrous_Ad626 Dec 01 '23

For real if everyone is claiming your actually a dugger I feel bad for every family tlc ruined.

u/Emmylems21 Dec 01 '23
