Re: The Duggars 17th baby is due this week!!! I've seen them on TV. I have mixed feelings about them. I have a problem with their buddy system. I don't it's right to make the older children care for and raise the younger ones so that momma can pop out another baby every year. I have also heard (not sure if it's true or not) that the girls are not allowed to go to college. Two of the older girls are responsible for meals for the whole family. They seem secluded from the world and other children which can be good or bad, depending on how you see it. They even have church in their home.
On the other hand I think they are a close family and that the children love and care for one another. They seem to be well behaved but I am sure we wouldn't hear about the bad things the kids would do.
Kinda curisous as to what Mom's responsibilities are besides having the babies. I know she homeschools but the older children do a lot of the teaching. |
