      Not just fundamentalist Christian. Christian cultists. The “quiver-full” doctrine is extremist and violent.

      Ah, I got confused and thought this was an old story. I didn’t know it was another person from the same show.

      I kind of think it’s that woman’s place thing. Either she does a good job of that or all bets are off. It could be just so many kids is basically like running an orphanage of your own kids.

        There are a lot of confounding factors, I think. But yeah, the Duggar family was perfectly tuned for breeding sexual predators. There’s a documentary series on Amazon Prime. Shiny Happy People. Season 1 is all about the Duggars and the cult they are members of, IBLP. I haven’t watched season 2 yet.

        Yeah. A friend of mine in high school was number 3 or 4 of 10 and she was expected to raise her siblings. Two people can’t give 10 children the attention they need and they just treat raising siblings like it’s a reasonable chore for a child.

      Just a slight correction the older brother wasn’t convicted of molestation he was convicted on child porn charges, the molestation he did was swept under the rug.

        Caution: Disturbing Information

        It was just about the worst child pornography in existence, involving horrific torture. One such video in his possession was said by an investigator to be in the top five worst files that he ever had to investigate. Allegedly, it was a video involving the brutal torture and rape of a baby and young girls. One of the girls was later murdered by the creator of the video, and the murder itself was allegedly filmed in a video that he intended to distribute (but did not get to before he was arrested).
