Chai

I'm in Boston and relieved they finally learned the identity of Baby Doe. In reading I learned the mother had two older children who were placed for adoption after her parental rights were terminated. That made me go looking up reasons for loosing parental rights. On the long sad list it included refusing to educate your child. The Duggars have such low quality homeschooling I kind of wondered if they could loose their parental rights? Or it could be argued, they are giving them an education, no matter how poorly done it is. (I wasnt sure where to put this post so i went with in the media. Please move it if it belongs elsewhere)

HFC hugs!! Hugs! Thank God everyone is ok! I wouldve been out of my mind, as you were. So glad all is well! <3

That and the mother of the year doing NOTHING. Her own child is hysterical for her health! I cannot believe i am saying one positive word for Josh, but i saw the look on his face when his father told him. He isnt an actor and that look told me he knew they were in dire straights.

I absolutely feel the same as you. When i heard similar news in the car i fought hard to regain my emotions. I couldnt see for my tears and i didnt want to cause an accident.

I understand your nervousness, I would be too. But, hopefully it is something simple that can be taken care of without much fuss. I'll keep you in my prayers, sending positive thoughts your way :-)

I've felt the same way, mostly. I wondered if I should've been whatever comes after Capricorn, because I was so premature I was born 2 lbs 8 oz. I do have some characteristics, such as loyalty, but ambitious(maybe), conservative(yes) determined(yes) practical(yes) helpful(double yes!) you know what? never mind, I guess I'm good. LOL!

Hi!!!!!!!!!!!! so sweet to see neighbors! :-)

Hi all the Massachusetts posters! Chai here from Boston!

My name is one of my favorite beverages. Hot or iced ;-)

Just to be clear, they stopped selling alcohol and cigarettes because they thought it was wrong. To me, that was the right thing to do.

I'm ok with a cash bar or open bar. Whatever the wedding couple wants is fine with me. What I'm not ok with is being made to go to a wedding in an open parking lot with no chairs and have only a root beer float in November or whatever month it was. Give the guests something to eat with wedding cake for dessert. If you are that against alcohol and you invited me to a wedding, I guess I'd know that. I wouldn't go. But don't diss those of us that drink socially, either. And just to add to the hypocrites, in the first book of theirs I bought, they used to sell alcohol and cigarettes in the store they owned. I will givejthem a pass since they said they found it upsetting to be getting wealth from something they didn't like using themselves.(socially wrong, financially wise.)

very pretty!

In my marriage my greatest gift to my husband was our children. I would think they would think the same way. Maybe I'm wrong.

I could only watch a few minutes of part 1 (couldn't believe there are 5 parts.) Michelle looks like she is "simple minded" for lack of a better description. She was standing there with her mouth hanging open, and staring. Watching them when they are so young I am sickened to realize this must have been when the problems began. It makes me so sick I just cannot watch. There is just nothing I can learn from a family that can allow that to happen.

I hate Michael--ah! I hate that! and I love the Bates! this, but no! maybe some one else can explain it!

www.duggarfamilyblog.com/2012/12/pilot-john-david-duggar.html Gawker.com reports a plane owned by Duggar Aviation LLC and often operated by Josh's brother John David Duggar departed Springdale Municipal Airport at 10:45pm Monday and landed at Chicago Rockford International Airport at 12:17am. q985online.com

I am completely floored that JD is an instrument rated pilot! Considering he has NO formal education that's saying something.

While Josh is away how will Anna pay the bills and buy groceries and other things for which money is needed? Where did his money come from? TLC? I hope Anna uses some , if there is any and opens her own checking account. I would hope for more, but I am afraid to say she probably won't. These people are making me sick too.

I'm surprised nothing happened sooner if he was going into strip clubs like that ALL THE TIME! and while there asking "Do you know who my father is???? !!!!!

how absolutely horrifying! The similarities between the two are scary, as are the MIL's to the Duggar parents.

It must have crossed their minds by now!

That's probably true! This is like the Island of Dr Moreau with all the science experiments running amok.

That is terrible considering those people don't have a pot to piss in and JB has millions. They did give them a beautiful wedding.

Well it was just a matter of time before an actual person was giving interviews and taking lie detector tests. Next question : how many?

I think the above account is true. I think he's a sick MF and needs serious counseling. Poor Anna! (She has my support and sympathy, but need counseling on how to deal with all this.)
