Y’all I can’t with jessa today🙄

I gathered that the Duggar family believed in original sin as the root of disciplinary issues, but it's interesting to see the script they were fed for years. -Suz

YIKES. i study child developmental psychology and so much of this just screams “im fucking up my children”.

Us Weekly - Jana Interview

A reporter from Us Weekly interviewed Michelle and Jana recently, focusing mainly on Jana’s relationship status. Jana talks about her desire to be married and have children (and says that she thinks it will happen), but that she’s trying to make the most of her singleness. She talks about trying not to dwell on the fact that she isn’t married. Michelle then talks about Jana’s business ventures and go-getter attitude.

This is sad, like in a pathetic way. If she's being honest, that is.

I think it’s hard for people who didn’t grow up in a conservative church to realize what an influence people like the Duggars have. In secular culture they’re just a blip on the radar, those the weirdos who popped out a ton of kids and don’t believe in evolution, but when you grow up and are discouraged to have secular role models, these are the kinda people they present as the alternative.

The Duggar Girls and others like them are the Kardashian/Jenners of conservative christian-girl instagram culture. They read their books in book clubs, they have them come talk at events even after J***’s whole shit show. I’m saying this from experience and my church wasn’t even IBLP affiliated or anywhere near as conservative. 

The Bates are gaining popularity, like Carlin and Josie etc on social media but idk people just don’t talk about them like they do the Duggars. The only similarly idolized christian celebs I can think of are like, Tim Tebow. Maybe the Gaines family sometimes.

Edit: The Bates are really popular don’t get me wrong, mostly because it’s easier for secular culture to digest them, but the Duggs have had their claws dug in for way longer.

First semi-update in 2 weeks says Bethany is doing well.

I wonder what the life update could be /s

I don’t believe this

Okay I hate speculating but, this only makes me believe there is something wrong with either her or the baby.

@countingandsnarkingon that’s how I feel too

Notice it says Bethany, not mom and baby

She had replied to a comment that asked if she had the baby saying “she’ll have to be the one to answer that”

completely agree, something is up. i feel as though her home birth didn’t work out as she’d planned and had to be transferred to the hospital for a c-section. i think she’s ashamed of it and won’t post regarding her birth, but will only introduce him.

again, just a theory.

Anonymous asked:

Did we ever hear JD and Abbie do the whole "saving our first kiss for the wedding day" spiel? I don't remember but I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't wait (even though they are both from IBLP) I don't know why.

Yep, we did hear it from them: 

And of course, their first kiss was a memorable one (and so long it’s gotta be two gifs!). 

The only married Bates or Duggar couple who has openly said they did not save their first kiss for marriage was Zach & Whitney.
