I watched the TV special on this family. The parents admitted that they do NOT raise the children. As soon as they get home with the new child, he or she is passed off to the older children to raise. Each child raises the younger ones until he or she is able to take care of a younger one. . . . I believe the show said Mr. D was a real estate agent. She might have been one.

I think the people need to use birth control or they both need to be fixed. It's as if he's a dog and can't stop himself from breeding and she doesn't have brains enough to say no more!! If they were breeding to have enough farm hands to run the plantation, it might make sense...but they're just breeding to be breeding. Just like a puppy mill!

The dad must be raking in at least 1 million dollars a year.... AT LEAST! But i think it's aweful.. how can they possibly provide the emotional needs for each child?

Somehow, someway, someone always manages to throw in something about gay people. I know it was said in relation to AOL, but so what? Give it some thought Jerome, it's not gays that are ruining our society, its hater mongers and greed and a lack of respect for those around you. People-express your opinions, but don't trash others no matter how ridiculous their statement is.

the older kids are doing the parenting

What gives so many the right to think that they know what is best for this family? It is their business, they have not come to me or mine for a hand out. Plain and simple it is their business. It may not be for me but apparently it is for them so lets shut up and leave them alone. Perhaps if we all clean our own homes and back yards the world will be a much happier place. Also a big plus in their favor.......They are legally married, they have no out of wed lock children, as so many do today.

That's just lovely. If everyone in the world followed the Duggar's example, Earth would be stripped of all her resources. And how can anyone be an attentive parent to EIGHTEEN children? Forget about having any one-on-one time with Mom and Dad. I feel bad for the older children. Whether they like it or not, they have been forced into parenting roles. And of course, on a crude and shallow note, I'd hate to see the shape of Mrs. Duggar's uterus. Geez. After turning out litters and litters of miniature Christian fundies, her body has to be exhausted. As for their sex life? I would imagine that it's like feeding a Tic-tac to a whale.
