Kaylee, who imo is turning out to be a terrible mother, got stuck with the bill for the after gym snack.

I just watched the episode where a Spirit Chief tries to help Ed to find his parents, or at least his father. (Season 2) After watching (and loving) Reservation Dogs, I was completely comfortable seeing a character engaged with a Spirit elder. I have no idea how I felt during the original run of the show. It was a sweet episode. I just love Ed's character.

Sadly, differences are not allowed in this family. Gideon can adjust to the noises that terrify him or he will be "trained" to do so.

I may be jaded, but I think Gil and Kelly's values are fluid, and I doubt that they care about what their daughters wear, at least when they're gestating.

That sounds good to me! We're only just starting Season 2 and only watch one episode at a time. I'm old, so I saw most of these episodes many years ago. I'm not certain that I watched it all the way through back then, though. It's a relaxing show to watch.

Is anyone here familiar with Dr. Ramani Durvasula? She's an expert on narcissism and I'm finding her YT videos fascinating!

Jill knows it's time to pick up the camera and post to SM, rather than enjoying a quiet moment with your favorite child. BME! Not.

My super control freak oldest sister (the executor of Mom's will and trust) is being impossible. I think she's making poor decisions. I don't really care about stuff or even inheritance that much, but she's doing everything in the slowest, most un-wise way imo and she keeps claiming that what she wants is "Mom's wishes". We haven't seen anything in writing and she keeps wanting to hold in person meetings, with her typed up agenda and wants to control what we can talk about. She also wants to exclude spouses from these meetings (except for hers). I think she's being ridiculous. I'm very unhappy. She put off the memorial for over a month, for example. It makes the good-bye that much harder.😢

Amy probably thinks we would all benefit from HER parenting tips. She and King Pickle are raising a holy terror.

These 2 spend entirely too much time together, as it is. I can't imagine what they are hoping to achieve on this marriage retreat. C&E may be hoping to impart marital advice to the other couples! 🤮 I'm sure the other people in attendance work for a living and lead their lives as adults.

The Lord will lay it on her heart to have a free vacation at Nurie's!

I wonder what addicted to SM Jill would do if Nathan and Nurie asked her not to post pics of their children on SM? My guess is that she would shame them for dishonoring their parents and post pics anyway!

The King James version? I kid!

I agree, Calico. I also wonder if these women feel like they have to constantly praise their men. Their belief system seems to be designed to prop up the egos of weak men.

I love this story! How old are the grandboys? Sounds like you have a really fun rapport with them!

IMO Renee is not very happy. Of course others may feel differently.

I wonder if that is part of Renee's problem too. Not every kid is cut out for public performing!

Did Kelton's dad remarry? In the olden days, that baby may have been farmed out, or Dad would remarry pretty quickly.

This post just made me remember Joe & Kendra's honeymoon, where she learned that he licked his plate when he was finished. She had to train him to have some more acceptable manners. Duggar wives have to retrain their husbands, along with their kids!

Can someone refresh my memory? I know Kelton's mom died in childbirth. Did the baby live? How old was Kelton at the time? That's a terrible loss for the family. I can't even imagine! I wish he had gotten counseling, so Josie could make her own decisions regarding pain management. It's her body!

I'm sorry that is happening to you. I pay 99cents a month for extra storage. I made a couple of albums and then tried to delete the pics in my regular library. Nope! It would delete them in both places, which I don't think is fair. I should probably just print the ones I like that are in my iPhone albums and then go ahead and delete. I have way too many pics on my phone!

I really get tired of Jill's filtered pics. I guess she doesn't like the looks that the Lord gave her!

It appears from looking at various sites, that many people are happy with the finale and eagerly anticipating Season 5. I feel differently. I really don't like Miles, Sam and the rest of the renegade crew. I was disappointed that Aleida repeated Margo's pattern of disloyalty to authority. I thought it was foolish of her to take part in Margo and Sergei's secret meetings and communications, that it put her and her family at risk from the KGB. I guess the writers found a workaround that Aleida was looking out for NASA and space exploration, but I personally could not have gone the deceptive route to deprive Earth of this valuable asset. I have disliked Ed for quite some time, so I can't see him as a hero. I do understand that our own history and that of most countries, involves exploitation and that workers rights have been hard fought battles for a better life for....well, for all mankind! I don't know what to make of Dev's motivations. Surely he is after money and power and will achieve them by whatever means. Because the show chooses to cover years and years, the original attractive, young heroes have become old, grizzled and cantankerous. That's fine, but they failed to flesh out the younger characters. I think that's why Ed, Dani and Margo continue to carry the storylines. By 2012, they will all either be very old or dead. I hope the show can come back with a season 5 of interesting new characters, but I'm not holding my breath. I felt let down by this finale. I understand that many people feel excited and engaged by it. I just feel disappointed.

It would also give her more time to devote to Prince Rhett!

On Jill's FB page, she received compliments on her decorating "skills". Of course she wouldn't allow negative comments to remain, so we don't see any of those. This woman is the very definition of main character syndrome and narcissism. She loves her own image so much!
