I’m going with tutor. Anna is probably busy figuring out when/how to be in touch with her hubby. KJ Bates uses college age girls from their church so I’m guessing there are still some sweet friends of JB & Meechelle willing to let their daughter tutor some Duggars. Just like JB was able to find someone to babysit his oldest son.

I’m not seeing Austin teaching math to Giddy. He may take Giddy along to work sites as Giddy gets older and start showing him how to handle tools etc. But I hope Giddy will be learning to read, write and do math well before then. And Joy doesn’t seem suited to homeschooling. The Duggar grandkids who live near TTH could certainly start attending SOTDRT together, seems like a lot of them are already there.

I guess reading the Bible while traveling around in the RV with your entire family crammed in is something, but I don’t think it expanded their world view or exposed them to critical thinking. Not that Philly will be experiencing too much of that, but he will be exposed to a few people not named Rodrigues.

Can you imagine poor Joy trying to help Giddy with modern math homework? They will homeschool - it was good enough for them, so it will be fine for their kids.

Austin was homeschooled too IIRC so he may think Joy is capable of teaching the kids. Joy can stick Giddy with a tablet just like Alyssa Bates Webster does.

Carlin and Evan: But Mostly Carlin!

Don’t be giving them any ideas! -
Maybe they have Pre K at TTH? Aren’t there a few Duggar grandkids around Giddy’s age? Joy seems the least qualified of all to homeschool. I still remember how gleeful she was at her graduation from SOTDRT, no more learning for her!
-
I forgot all about the JB Fundie theater! So it’s up and running? The Hannie and Carver friendship could be like Joy and Austin where sometime next year they will be best friends and married 6 months later.

I can’t figure out their end game if in fact Carlin is either faking or exaggerating her seizures. It is dragging on far too long for “we prayed it away” or Jesus answered all our fans prayers. Maybe now that Evan is officially a BSB employee the episodes will just stop. Just like whenever they are on vacation or doing something fun. -

Maybe KJ will rent a house near Katie so everyone can come to the gender reveal! What fun. I’m sure Katie feels entitled to have all her family there since she probably went to every single one of theirs. Think of all the YouTube and Instagram story opportunities! Will Josie snub Carlin? Will Erin show up? Maybe Lawson and Tiffy can sing. -
So annoying how even back then, Boob and Meechelle walk ahead of every single one of the kids, holding hands. Leaving the sister moms to carry baby in car seat and keep track of the little ones.

Yes that is true since as a self employed person you pay your share plus your employer (you) share. -

And now back to other annoying things about C&E, do their kids ever sleep in their own beds? They always seem to fall asleep wherever. Now we are getting pictures of Zade with clothes that seem too small or are just plain bizarre, just like when Layla was a baby. -

Regardless of how much C&E make I see them as the type who spends whatever comes in. So if in fact they gross $100k from social media, they will be shocked at tax time when they need to come up with $$$ for self employment and income taxes. And regardless of deductions and child care credits, self employment tax rate is about 12%. -

Even if right now C&E are making decent money via YouTube and IG it doesn’t seem sustainable for them. Unless they really up their game, they are basically boring, dumb and short sighted. Layla is sort of cute but how interesting will that be in a few years? Zade is a potato baby, will people be interested in his squishy looks when he’s 5? And the seizures/episodes are already not bringing the numbers they did earlier.
