Michelle Duggar is now pregnant with the 18th child of the Duggar family. I can't believe it, she just keeps popping babies out!

This family disturbs me so much. I can't explain it. There is just something about it that gives me a bad feeling in my gut.

Seriously. If I was a Duggar, I'd want to rebel. I feel bad for saying this, but I can't wait until Michelle starts menopause so she'll stop having children.

Haven't they considered adoption? Sad

I think it's wonderful. I mean if they want all those children and can take care of them then why not. It would be a different story if they could not take care of them.

All the kids are well behaved and every thing.

Why would they considered adoption if they want the children?

It's different. Unique. But I don't it is something to be suspicious of. I personally would hate to parent 18 children. I don't imagine myself even with one.

Their choice.

I saw their tv specials awhile back... I think it's absolutely greatof them to have as many children as they want and have the big happy family and....


Heavy random ramblings inside... just some random stuff that came to mind over the years as I heard about them in the news....
Spoiler:

oh forget it. I'm done pretending like it's perfectly normal. It's not. Dont' get me wrong, having a big family is fine... but I saw the special where they tried to build their own home. They couldn't get it done so they got all this charity money to have it finished for them. How lame. If you want to have that many kids, you better be ready to be able to support them. I'm not about to be handing out charity to people who purposely make their lives more difficult like that. If you want that many kids, get ready for all teh responsibilites that come along with it.
And no, I don't think it's okay that all the girls wanted to share a room with each otehr and all the oys wanted to remain in the same room, as well. What typical 17 year old boy chooses to stay in a room with his baby brothers? Pc or unpc, for the first time ever I don't care. That is not okay. There is something wrong with that. They are home-schooled and only associate with other kids who come from large familes. The girls never get to wear anything but dresses and the boys have to be immaculate at all times. I'm nto saying that girls shouldn't be allowed to weardresses, but I feel like they are sometimes asked to make sacrifices so their parents can have their big happy family. I would love to know how they are all going to get to go to their choice of colleges and make their own life choices. Do they get to go to movies with friends on weekends or do tey all pile into their bus and go together? It borderlines on creepy and I can't figure out why. It's not the size of the family... I think it's more about how they act like the Stepford kids. It's not healthy on any level.
