I am so happy that those kids have cut ties with their parents. I am glad they have their own opinions and that they have their own beliefs. I just finished Jill's book and the hell that her parents put her and her sisters through. It is so horrible!
Has it occurred to you, that Jill is after money. It was money that made her criticize her father in the first place. Jill wants money and that is why she wrote a book of lies. The only hell that will happen to her has nothing to do with her parents.
Has it occurred to you that maybe her parents owed her money for being on the show. Specifically her “father” they were under a contract without knowing or understanding the terms and conditions.
They attend independent fundamental baptist churches and follow the cult of iblp...all very oppressive and backwards not mainstream baptist christianity
Goes to show you every family has skeleton’s in their closet. Religion does not exclude them. Good to see some of their kids moving away from that toxic mentality and living the life they want with their spouses.
First Jill, now Jinger! It's because of Jinger's new book and Jill's new book will be out soon! Cousin Amy also talked about writing her own book, and I hope she does! IF my parents were like Jim Bob and Michelle, I'd wait until my 18th Birthday and just leave and NEVER return - whether I was married or not!

Jessa is still in IBLP with Dumbbob daddy. She's like the golden child now. Funny how she just announced her 5th pregnancy as soon as Jills book came out.
She was pregnant before and then miscarriage so now she tried again. Her last daughter was a rainbow baby. Fern. So now that Fern is older they tried again. I don't think she tried to throw shade on Jill. Is Jill pregnant or did she have another kid besides her 2 boys
Yet she was asked if they’re still in the IBLP and she said NO! So I don’t know exactly what they believe all I know is Ben is the Pastor and I believe it’s Baptist! There’s a couple different Baptist. Southern and Independent.

I don’t blame the ones that left and severed ties with their parents they were robbed of a normal, healthy, childhood and had to raise their younger siblings and they grew up in a messed up environment. Went on T.V. and had to keep up appearances act like everything was OK.when it wasn’t even before we found out about Josh’s issues and a Father who covered for Josh and because of all of this the entire family was embarrassed and JimBob wonders why his kids want nothing to do with him.🤷🏼♀️

It depends cause I was raised Southern Baptist. It depends on who the pastor is. Some Southern Baptist church have now closed doors due to being very harmful and the elderly cannot afford to pay for a pastor and building expenses if you do not bring in people. I used to attend one. It was very small and they brought in a horrible guy. He was very rude to his wife. His son was very rude. Well the choir director and pianist had a fling. They had to apologize and it broke the church up. Also that pastor denied youth or made comments about their attire. First off be glad they attended. And the girl wore a dress that was given to her. It was not short and the boy only had his shirt unbuttoned on the first button. Nothing was showing. Needless to say they closed their doors
The IBLP cult is called FAKE Christianity! They use Bill Gothard's IBLP "Cult Bible" instead of the "authentic" Holy Bible that REAL churches use! You can't force people to leave cults! It's a decision have to make themselves!
I'm not religious, let alone believe in my religion anymore, but I still believe in God. But I'm 💯 agreeing with you. It's a cult and everyone needs to get out of there. Makes me worried at times. Because the parents and whoever support them act like nothing's going on, while more and more of the Duggar kids are escaping and speaking up of what really went on.
Jai, when it comes to abuse, SOMEBODY has to blow the whistle, and in this case, it was Jill! I'm EXTREMELY proud of her, and she's my favorite, because I'm outspoken myself! The IBLP cult is patriarchal, and that's why girls and women are treated so badly! Bill Gothard makes the rules, and Jim Bob takes "orders" from him! Jinger herself said you can leave cults and STILL be religious, and that's true! I practice Reform Judaism, which is 100% gender equality, and I make my own decisions, and I'm accepted and respected for that!
@@LisaKoffler I used to be a type of Christian which Michelle and Jim Bob claim to be. And I can tell you that in my personal experience Bill is making it up and making it seem that it's a cult, when it's not. Yes, The Bible does say something about modesty and all but not on the way they're going about it. I feel bad about the fact that women and girls get treated badly, I'd take in Anna and her kids if I had the money and all. Like I have a few rooms but I feel like it wouldn't be enough for 7 kids and her. I know alot about abuse, I happen to be an abuse victim myself. That's one reason why I want to help out as much as possible. I'm just glad they're slowly getting out there and leaving it behind them and telling their story. I left my religion because of how they are and I couldn't handle it no more. But I still do believe in God tho.
That you are judging, a cult is a strong family. From the world y'all done broken that up. We are the evil in the devil works upon, he's domain is the Armageddon which is the earth, his okay ground, and were his vessel if we allow him. Quit judging, its nature place unless its a court of law. Because your no different.
Why would you say Jill and Jinger have "large broods" when Jill and Derick have only had three kids in nine years of marriage and only had two for a long time, and Jinger and Jeremy have only had two kids in seven years of marriage?
That’s a perfect size of a family! Nothing wrong with that at all. Jill just had her 3rd and she’s been married for many years and Jinger has 2 and I’d be surprised if they have another one.
Good for Amy!! I wonder if her girl cousins found the courage to follow her example. The girls have all said they have not stopped going to church or stop believing in God they know that most of the ridiculous rules are BS. I hope others Will follow in her footsteps
I go to a southern Baptist church and yes most belieave the woman should wear dresses and no makeup but come on most of them are breaking away from the old ways . The husband is in charge of the house hold but now aways the husband and wife work toge ather as a family.not all baptist churches are cults were not cults
@@Pixiegirl1280she’s not allowed over to the big house but Jill goes with the her mom and some of her sisters when they occasionally go out to eat. Michelle also went when Jill had her baby. It’s all because of Jim Bob that Jill isn’t allowed to go over to the house so I’m sure it puts Michelle in a difficult situation but atleast she sees them occasionally.
Her husband is a Baptist preacher and they no longer follow the IBLP cult of their parents. They may still speak to them, but they do not remain with the cult IBLP....her husband is now a mainstream preacher.
This is part of life when raising children. You live the best you know how to do in your faith and for your family. As your children grow and have families of their own, it's hard to let go but is a part of this process. In each family there wil be good times and challenges. Love conquors all. Best wishes to all families always.-John's wife
My oldest friend and I hate being an only child! When your parents get old, it’s all up to you! There are many things you don’t learn! Harder to be social!
Luke 12:2-5 GNBUK Whatever is covered up will be uncovered, and every secret will be made known. So then, whatever you have said in the dark will be heard in broad daylight, and whatever you have whispered in private in a closed room will be shouted from the housetops.
Every child raised in a Christian home has to find their own path. Christian’s need to establish their own relationship with God. Hopefully these children can also maintain a relationship with their other family members. Their husbands should butt out and let their wives sort out the relationship they want to have with the rest of the family. Dissension in families is not to be celebrated.
The IBLP cult is called FAKE Christianity! The 4 sisters that Josh sexually abused got lucky enough to find husbands who are willing and able to help them heal from the trauma! The husbands can only "butt out" if their wives tell them to do so! I absolutely agree with you that dissension of ANY kind is NOT to be celebrated, and the Duggar Family dynamics alone is enough to make ANYONE sick!
No their husband's have helped them crawl out of a cult,and to become strong Christians in truth! So no the husband's helped save them from guilt,lies,and betrayal!
The truth is, you don't know if anyone has cut ties with the parents. You don't know anything about these people. You can't believe everything that comes out of You Tube. Especially on channels like this one. Jill has shown her @$$ over money and Jinger has tried to cash in on Gothard but I don't think they have cut ties with their parents. I don't think they are like that. Well, Jill is awful but no one else has criticized the parents like that. You really should find the facts before you post garbage like this.
That's because they're part of Bill Gothard's IBLP cult instead of a REAL church! It's called FAKE Christianity! Josh was BORN "a bad seed," and Jim Bob and Michelle should have called the police the very first time he committed his crimes! I absolutely agree that they're weirdos and creepy at the same time!
@@shellymedley6795I’m Praying the Daughters Will finally start talking. Their parents Are hiding. N Keeping Way to many Secrets. I believe their Dad SA His Daughters n the Mom Knew.
That's a baby involved in this whole situation with Josh Duggar end up dying. Because I'm pretty sure what they were saying it seemed like it was really horrific whatever happened to that child. And considering he was contributing to that. I kind of feel like he may deserve the death penalty.
Jim Bob said something about ANYONE who commits crimes like Josh's deserves the death penalty! I'm just surprised that he didn't apply that to Josh himself! It's because he loves him TOO MUCH! It's sickening!
@@LisaKoffler yeah I told her son it was a test and they clearly failed it. That's just my view. But I do understand why they are the way they are. Is because it's their son what do you expect them to do.
Conservative observer, your view isn't wrong at all! Josh was BORN "a bad seed," so his parents are only PARTLY to blame! IF they reported Josh the very first time he committed his crimes, it would have made life so much easier, but the IBLP cult doesn't "trust" law enforcement, and after they put themselves online, on social media, and on TV, it became everyone's business! Rules apply to everyone, and NO ONE - not even the President of the United States - is above the law! Jim Bob and Michelle should have been smart enough to know better!
EXCUSE ME? Jim Bob and Michelle joined Bill Gothard's IBLP cult instead of a REAL church! It's called FAKE Christianity! Bill Gothard makes the rules, and Jim Bob takes "orders" from him! Sadly, Jim Bob STILL insists on controlling his adult kids even after they get married, move out of his house, and have their own kids, and it's absolutely disgusting! That's NOT "doing a great job raising kids!" It's a form of abuse! It's true that NO family is perfect, but you need to get your facts straight!
MirenaVlad, Cousin Amy asked Josh WHY he never sexually abused her, and he admitted that she would have punched him out! Jill did, and she reported his crimes and she was "punished" for it! Josh never touched Jana, either for the same reason! He victimized "weak" people who couldn't defend themselves! I learned that Cousin Amy is writing her own book, and I'm NOT sure if it'll make as much money as Jinger's and Jill's books, so we'll just have to wait and see!
Why? Why are you playing LOUD music? Are we at a concert? The Crappy music is over shadowing your youtube show. If I want to listen to music i will listen to my choice of music.. Very difficult to hear what your point is about on the duggars
Now that you know that they're part of Bill Gothard's IBLP cult instead of a REAL church, do you STILL enjoy watching their TV show? I hope not, because they lied to the world! I watched their TV show to learn how supersized families worked, and I learned that they made their own homemade soap! I asked myself WHY it wasn't used to wash out Josh's brain and mouth!
The IBLP cult teaches their members to let God decide FOR them how many kids they'll have, and they don't allow birth control of ANY kind! Jim Bob himself "pocketed" the money that rightfully belonged to ALL of his 19 Kids, and when Jill and Derick tried to sue him, they didn't get much! It's absolutely disgusting!
I think this family is a good family and raised their kids right but because we have free will, their children will make decisions bad or good... don't blame the family, blame the person who made the bad decision.
Jim Bob and Michelle are not good parents, Jana is the one who raised her siblings, that Jim Bob and Michelle robbed Jana and Jill, Jinger, Jessa their childhood twice Jim Bob and Michelle are their golden boy Josh to SA his little sister for years
JL, are you blind and stupid? IF Jim Bob and Michelle were "good parents who raised their kids right," they'd be part of a REAL church instead of Bill Gothard's IBLP cult! It's true that we all have free will, and that an entire family shouldn't be "punished" just because of one "bad" family member, but you have to remember that ALL cults abuse and brainwash their members in the worst ways, and the IBLP cult is NO exception! Josh himself was BORN "a bad seed," so his parents are only PARTLY to blame! WHY they got involved with Bill Gothard in the first place is the million dollar question, and they're now experiencing karma in MORE ways than one because of that! MOST of their 19 kids are slowly breaking away from the cult, and that's a good thing!
The kids raised the other kids Jim Bob & Michelle didn't nothing to raise these kids older raise those kids and if their arms and tongue skink notarize I want to believe a word out of either one of them they should be using those kids for money for them not sure what those kids who deserve to be paid
Jim Bob and Michelle committed parentification, which is a form of abuse! ALL 19 Kids deserved to be paid, but Jim Bob "pocketed" ALL the money for himself, and that should be against the law!
Amy stayed close while the Duggars had a T.V. show. Amy wanted fame and used the Duggar family to try to achieve a singing career. Amy is the opportunist in the Duggar family. She was in like Flynn when there was a T.V. Show but now demonizes them when that’s what others are doing. She changes like the wind. I liked the Duggar’s Show but I ‘m not surprised it all fell apart. Jimbob made some poor decisions in life for his family.
You know what's messed up, this is a family, like any other family. But the difference is they have media. But a Christian family living in hard times and gand. And they wanted to show the world their love and trust in the bible, there getting trashed about how women are trapped and enslaved by showing their bodies and stuff but it's not the same if you read your Bible you would know if you believe in God you would know. No one knows the spirit that guides your heart. Your father and Creator and those who want to downfall it just because they can get a pay check, in my book are lost, corrupted, and have evil on there shoulders. Man cannot judge man. Man douse it so well. That the fact is even if one of there son did something really bad. Well what about you what's going on in your household. Are you on TV to show the world your problem or sickness, no your not. The thing is we are all human, and we mess up, but if you read your Bible, god if forgive those who repent and lay it down and not do it again. That's murderers cheaters child pornographers All the Above. But you're eager to judge and then you never know he'll turn around in your own household, could have that same outcome. The only differences are that you're not on tv. Man needs to learn to quit judging others if they can't even judge their self. Now all this media done took a good old culture family growing up into a really messed up bad situation where kids family stay away from their parents because of the way they look. All that pressure all that from them trying so hard to teach him right. All the way up until now. I hope you're happy with yourself. In my heart, Christians are Christians the bad people are bad people. You should find our Lord Jesus Christ. To save you from all your damnation. If you believed in him.
It's not in slavery if you're covered read your Bible it's when you show your body, makes it lust, not love for the only eyes who can look apon you with love.
I ALWAYS hated the scenes from the show that had Amy Duggar in them and tried my best to start skipping them, because it just seemed to me like she was just there to grift off their fame. I guess that turned out to be true, because I think she tried to get some singing career going at some point.
Some of the husbands are creepier. They seem to have married for money and fame. Derrick was Jim Bobs little buddy. He took Jill over seas to meet Derrick. Evidently they didn’t complain about that. Seems like several of these husbands are mooches.
Ih yes they deprived them of all the depravity and filth they could have experienced in the government/public schools. Learning about homosexuality and transex and all the other many lies taught by government school teachers.
The bible said to train up a child in the way it SHOULD go!! The dad tried to train them up respectful;. Ever what choice they choose when they grew up ..is up to them...seems like it is rebellion towards the parents & God...poor things, they dont know what abuse is......todays world is anti-God so what do u expect ....my heart goes out to the parents....honor the mother & father that your days will be long ......
The parents Michelle and Jim bob should be TRAINED TO BE NICER PARENTS TO THEIR CHILDREN do the kids have toys because when in was on tv didn't seem to have any toys to play with
They didn't get any money, that's the point. the parents were the only ones who received any of the money and the kids were told you will get it through inheritance once we die. which isn't right. Jill also alluded to the fact the controlled the money for tax evasion purposes. It was all corrupt
I am so happy that those kids have cut ties with their parents. I am glad they have their own opinions and that they have their own beliefs. I just finished Jill's book and the hell that her parents put her and her sisters through. It is so horrible!

Schadenfreude much?
Jinger still has a relationship with her parents. It’s strained but she’s not banished like Jim Bob did with Jill.

And I can tell you that in my personal experience Bill is making it up and making it seem that it's a cult, when it's not. Yes, The Bible does say something about modesty and all but not on the way they're going about it.
I feel bad about the fact that women and girls get treated badly, I'd take in Anna and her kids if I had the money and all. Like I have a few rooms but I feel like it wouldn't be enough for 7 kids and her.
I know alot about abuse, I happen to be an abuse victim myself. That's one reason why I want to help out as much as possible. I'm just glad they're slowly getting out there and leaving it behind them and telling their story. I left my religion because of how they are and I couldn't handle it no more. But I still do believe in God tho.
That you are judging, a cult is a strong family. From the world y'all done broken that up. We are the evil in the devil works upon, he's domain is the Armageddon which is the earth, his okay ground, and were his vessel if we allow him. Quit judging, its nature place unless its a court of law. Because your no different.
Why would you say Jill and Jinger have "large broods" when Jill and Derick have only had three kids in nine years of marriage and only had two for a long time, and Jinger and Jeremy have only had two kids in seven years of marriage?
My thoughts exactly. To me, that's a small family.
Their families are either small or medium-sized, and it's Anna who has "a large brood" of 7 kids with Josh, the perverted, disgusting pig!
That’s a perfect size of a family! Nothing wrong with that at all. Jill just had her 3rd and she’s been married for many years and Jinger has 2 and I’d be surprised if they have another one.
Also Joy Anna she just had her 3 kid. She had 2 til this year.
@@annkupke4263Her 3rd baby was stillborn in her 2nd trimester. It was sad they showed pictures of Joy and Austin holding thier sweet baby.😢
Getting old jessa
Good for Amy!! I wonder if her girl cousins found the courage to follow her example. The girls have all said they have not stopped going to church or stop believing in God they know that most of the ridiculous rules are BS. I hope others Will follow in her footsteps
I go to a southern Baptist church and yes most belieave the woman should wear dresses and no makeup but come on most of them are breaking away from the old ways . The husband is in charge of the house hold but now aways the husband and wife work toge ather as a family.not all baptist churches are cults were not cults
Jill and Jinger and Jessa still talk to their family
Actually, Jill is still estranged from both of her parents and haven't see nor talk to them few years now.
Jill hasn't stopped talking to her parents altogether, and Jinger and Jessa still talk to them, but not as much as they used to!
Jill still talks to Michelle but she is guarded around her now though. She now understands boundaries
Pixiegirl1280, absolutely! We ALL need to have boundaries!
@@Pixiegirl1280she’s not allowed over to the big house but Jill goes with the her mom and some of her sisters when they occasionally go out to eat. Michelle also went when Jill had her baby. It’s all because of Jim Bob that Jill isn’t allowed to go over to the house so I’m sure it puts Michelle in a difficult situation but atleast she sees them occasionally.
So over all of them . And they are ego maniacs now
I dont believe Jessa cut ties with her parents
Her husband is a Baptist preacher and they no longer follow the IBLP cult of their parents. They may still speak to them, but they do not remain with the cult IBLP....her husband is now a mainstream preacher.
This is part of life when raising children. You live the best you know how to do in your faith and for your family. As your children grow and have families of their own, it's hard to let go but is a part of this process. In each family there wil be good times and challenges. Love conquors all. Best wishes to all families always.-John's wife
I quit watching as I get sick of hearing about the cousin.
Thats wat religius do to eachother 😡😡😡
My oldest friend and I hate being an only child! When your parents get old, it’s all up to you! There are many things you don’t learn! Harder to be social!
No they haven’t 🤦🏻♀️
The Duggar family were not Baptists.
Luke 12:2-5 GNBUK
Whatever is covered up will be uncovered, and every secret will be made known. So then, whatever you have said in the dark will be heard in broad daylight, and whatever you have whispered in private in a closed room will be shouted from the housetops.
Every child raised in a Christian home has to find their own path. Christian’s need to establish their own relationship with God. Hopefully these children can also maintain a relationship with their other family members. Their husbands should butt out and let their wives sort out the relationship they want to have with the rest of the family. Dissension in families is not to be celebrated.
The IBLP cult is called FAKE Christianity! The 4 sisters that Josh sexually abused got lucky enough to find husbands who are willing and able to help them heal from the trauma! The husbands can only "butt out" if their wives tell them to do so! I absolutely agree with you that dissension of ANY kind is NOT to be celebrated, and the Duggar Family dynamics alone is enough to make ANYONE sick!
No their husband's have helped them crawl out of a cult,and to become strong Christians in truth! So no the husband's helped save them from guilt,lies,and betrayal!
She didn’t complain when he took her overseas to meet that boy she married.
It’s sad that a child would cash in on their parents’ mistakes. Really sad.
The truth is, you don't know if anyone has cut ties with the parents. You don't know anything about these people. You can't believe everything that comes out of You Tube. Especially on channels like this one. Jill has shown her @$$ over money and Jinger has tried to cash in on Gothard but I don't think they have cut ties with their parents. I don't think they are like that. Well, Jill is awful but no one else has criticized the parents like that. You really should find the facts before you post garbage like this.
The family is so freakin creepy
Jim Bob and Michelle are the weirdos!!!!
@@shellymedley6795 YESSSSS!!! ABD THE OLDEST BROTHER TOO.
That's because they're part of Bill Gothard's IBLP cult instead of a REAL church! It's called FAKE Christianity! Josh was BORN "a bad seed," and Jim Bob and Michelle should have called the police the very first time he committed his crimes! I absolutely agree that they're weirdos and creepy at the same time!
@@shellymedley6795I’m Praying the Daughters Will finally start talking. Their parents Are hiding. N Keeping Way to many Secrets. I believe their Dad SA His Daughters n the Mom Knew.
That’s not at all fair to say.
About the young people stand up for them selves
Good for jill sending her kids to public school raise them with the bible and a bible believing church.
That's a baby involved in this whole situation with Josh Duggar end up dying. Because I'm pretty sure what they were saying it seemed like it was really horrific whatever happened to that child. And considering he was contributing to that. I kind of feel like he may deserve the death penalty.
Jim Bob said something about ANYONE who commits crimes like Josh's deserves the death penalty! I'm just surprised that he didn't apply that to Josh himself! It's because he loves him TOO MUCH! It's sickening!
@@LisaKoffler yeah I told her son it was a test and they clearly failed it. That's just my view. But I do understand why they are the way they are. Is because it's their son what do you expect them to do.
Conservative observer, your view isn't wrong at all! Josh was BORN "a bad seed," so his parents are only PARTLY to blame! IF they reported Josh the very first time he committed his crimes, it would have made life so much easier, but the IBLP cult doesn't "trust" law enforcement, and after they put themselves online, on social media, and on TV, it became everyone's business! Rules apply to everyone, and NO ONE - not even the President of the United States - is above the law! Jim Bob and Michelle should have been smart enough to know better!
Who has a perfect family?? They did a great job raising their kids, they can’t control what happens when the kids got older
EXCUSE ME? Jim Bob and Michelle joined Bill Gothard's IBLP cult instead of a REAL church! It's called FAKE Christianity! Bill Gothard makes the rules, and Jim Bob takes "orders" from him! Sadly, Jim Bob STILL insists on controlling his adult kids even after they get married, move out of his house, and have their own kids, and it's absolutely disgusting! That's NOT "doing a great job raising kids!" It's a form of abuse! It's true that NO family is perfect, but you need to get your facts straight!
Even raised a great kid that molested other kids, including his sisters. Yep. Wish I had great parents like them.
Sick, sick, sick.
No, they didn't Jim Bob and Michelle raised a pedophile who was allowed to SA his little sisters for years
😅😅😂🤣
Good. not for Michelle, but Jim-bob yes!
I’m proud of Amy to know to cut ties with the weird ones
Setting boundaries is NOT disrespectful! You're just letting people know where you stand, and it's something we ALL need to do!
Cousin Amy is a backstabber.
MirenaVlad, Cousin Amy asked Josh WHY he never sexually abused her, and he admitted that she would have punched him out! Jill did, and she reported his crimes and she was "punished" for it! Josh never touched Jana, either for the same reason! He victimized "weak" people who couldn't defend themselves! I learned that Cousin Amy is writing her own book, and I'm NOT sure if it'll make as much money as Jinger's and Jill's books, so we'll just have to wait and see!
Why? Why are you playing LOUD music? Are we at a concert? The Crappy music is over shadowing your youtube show. If I want to listen to music i will listen to my choice of music.. Very difficult to hear what your point is about on the duggars
JOY has distanced as well.
I always enjoyed watching the show but children grow up and are exposed to different things and people
Now that you know that they're part of Bill Gothard's IBLP cult instead of a REAL church, do you STILL enjoy watching their TV show? I hope not, because they lied to the world! I watched their TV show to learn how supersized families worked, and I learned that they made their own homemade soap! I asked myself WHY it wasn't used to wash out Josh's brain and mouth!
Amy was always there for the camera
Not everyone can afford homeschooling or christian schools my mom couldnt
Everything for money😷
The IBLP cult teaches their members to let God decide FOR them how many kids they'll have, and they don't allow birth control of ANY kind! Jim Bob himself "pocketed" the money that rightfully belonged to ALL of his 19 Kids, and when Jill and Derick tried to sue him, they didn't get much! It's absolutely disgusting!
Michelle is wearing pants. 4:41
She's wearing her black leggings under a black tennis skirt. It looks like pants in some angles.
While shopping, I've seen "tights without feet!"
I 2:04 like 2:23 her
I think this family is a good family and raised their kids right but because we have free will, their children will make decisions bad or good... don't blame the family, blame the person who made the bad decision.
Sure. They raised a wonderful pedo kid who abused his sisters and they did everything they could to cover for him. Wonderful family.
Jim Bob and Michelle are not good parents, Jana is the one who raised her siblings, that Jim Bob and Michelle robbed Jana and Jill, Jinger, Jessa their childhood twice Jim Bob and Michelle are their golden boy Josh to SA his little sister for years
JL, are you blind and stupid? IF Jim Bob and Michelle were "good parents who raised their kids right," they'd be part of a REAL church instead of Bill Gothard's IBLP cult! It's true that we all have free will, and that an entire family shouldn't be "punished" just because of one "bad" family member, but you have to remember that ALL cults abuse and brainwash their members in the worst ways, and the IBLP cult is NO exception! Josh himself was BORN "a bad seed," so his parents are only PARTLY to blame! WHY they got involved with Bill Gothard in the first place is the million dollar question, and they're now experiencing karma in MORE ways than one because of that! MOST of their 19 kids are slowly breaking away from the cult, and that's a good thing!
I don't think sopp
I do not think that The Duggers were Baptist.
Nope, when you base your faith on anything but Jesus it's a cult.
The kids raised the other kids Jim Bob & Michelle didn't nothing to raise these kids older raise those kids and if their arms and tongue skink notarize I want to believe a word out of either one of them they should be using those kids for money for them not sure what those kids who deserve to be paid
Jim Bob and Michelle committed parentification, which is a form of abuse! ALL 19 Kids deserved to be paid, but Jim Bob "pocketed" ALL the money for himself, and that should be against the law!
Yep
Amy stayed close while the Duggars had a T.V. show. Amy wanted fame and used the Duggar family to try to achieve a singing career. Amy is the opportunist in the Duggar family. She was in like Flynn when there was a T.V. Show but now demonizes them when that’s what others are doing. She changes like the wind.
I liked the Duggar’s Show but I ‘m not surprised it all fell apart. Jimbob made some poor decisions in life for his family.
So disappointed in Ben and Jessa.
Amy is not a nice person.
Amy does and says anything to stay relevant.
You know what's messed up, this is a family, like any other family. But the difference is they have media. But a Christian family living in hard times and gand. And they wanted to show the world their love and trust in the bible, there getting trashed about how women are trapped and enslaved by showing their bodies and stuff but it's not the same if you read your Bible you would know if you believe in God you would know. No one knows the spirit that guides your heart. Your father and Creator and those who want to downfall it just because they can get a pay check, in my book are lost, corrupted, and have evil on there shoulders. Man cannot judge man. Man douse it so well. That the fact is even if one of there son did something really bad. Well what about you what's going on in your household. Are you on TV to show the world your problem or sickness, no your not. The thing is we are all human, and we mess up, but if you read your Bible, god if forgive those who repent and lay it down and not do it again. That's murderers cheaters child pornographers All the Above. But you're eager to judge and then you never know he'll turn around in your own household, could have that same outcome. The only differences are that you're not on tv. Man needs to learn to quit judging others if they can't even judge their self. Now all this media done took a good old culture family growing up into a really messed up bad situation where kids family stay away from their parents because of the way they look. All that pressure all that from them trying so hard to teach him right. All the way up until now. I hope you're happy with yourself. In my heart, Christians are Christians the bad people are bad people. You should find our Lord Jesus Christ. To save you from all your damnation. If you believed in him.
It's not in slavery if you're covered read your Bible it's when you show your body, makes it lust, not love for the only eyes who can look apon you with love.
Jim Bob and Michelle aren't Christians.
Bullcrap.
They are controlled freaks if my parents were like that I would not have any thing to do with them 🎉@@LaraCroftEyes1
They were NOT Baptist. They were IBLP Its more of cult and not a religion. Do your homework.
Absolutely! The IBLP cult is called FAKE Christianity!
I just came here to see if any Mormons or other religions or cults that believe in force populating the world,are on here 😊
REALLY? It's mostly CULTS that expect wives to behave like sex slaves and baby factories!
I ALWAYS hated the scenes from the show that had Amy Duggar in them and tried my best to start skipping them, because it just seemed to me like she was just there to grift off their fame. I guess that turned out to be true, because I think she tried to get some singing career going at some point.
If true great
The parents sre not christian
Yes they are
Seems like the complainers are trying to make money from their books maybe because they have deadbeat husbands.
Derek isn't a deadbeat and neither is Jeremy.
I pray the older Duggar young women continue to break free. Jim Bob is ssooooo creepy.
Some of the husbands are creepier. They seem to have married for money and fame. Derrick was Jim Bobs little buddy. He took Jill over seas to meet Derrick. Evidently they didn’t complain about that. Seems like several of these husbands are mooches.
No, they're not, Jim Bob and Josh Duggar are creepers
I find the mother and father deprived their children of going to school ..
Ih yes they deprived them of all the depravity and filth they could have experienced in the government/public schools. Learning about homosexuality and transex and all the other many lies taught by government school teachers.
They're creepy and they're ookie !!!!!
I love Amie
Amy?
I love her, too!
The bible said to train up a child in the way it SHOULD go!! The dad tried to train them up respectful;. Ever what choice they choose when they grew up ..is up to them...seems like it is rebellion towards the parents & God...poor things, they dont know what abuse is......todays world is anti-God so what do u expect ....my heart goes out to the parents....honor the mother & father that your days will be long ......
Jim Bob and Michelle are bad parents.
JIM BOB AND MICHELLE WERE CRAZY AND CREEPY they followed the cult
Respectful obviously it didn't work with pervert Josh disgusting human being
In all religion or cults their are evil people
The parents Michelle and Jim bob should be TRAINED TO BE NICER PARENTS TO THEIR CHILDREN do the kids have toys because when in was on tv didn't seem to have any toys to play with
Sad. No parent is perfect. Too bad you turned your back on yours. I bet the money you got from the show helped all of you.
Wasn't Jill's argument that she and Derrick _weren't_ paid?
Jim Bob and Michelle turned their backs on their daughters.
They didn't get any money, that's the point. the parents were the only ones who received any of the money and the kids were told you will get it through inheritance once we die. which isn't right. Jill also alluded to the fact the controlled the money for tax evasion purposes. It was all corrupt
JOY has distanced as well.
