Re: The Duggars 17th baby is due this week!!! If you can't say something nice has been a mantra I've been having to repeat to myself in regards to this family.
I will say that I think it extremely reproachful that a child can not have a childhood. In that environment, with older children being responsible for younger, I just don't see how the older ones are able to enjoy their childhood and then have a chance to fully mature and THEN be responsible for raising a child. This world is harsh and cruel, and the only time a person has to be truly free without care for that cruelness is when they are a child, and in this instance this seems to be ripped from them and they're thrust into that world before they even have a chance to savor that free moment. |
