We knew it was bound to happen one day: Josie licked the wrong thing/person!

"A bit" - to see if this Counting On works out and the money starts rolling in again.

Thank you NewDigs! I too question "a bit." Can courtships have a time out?
-
I like how Honey started in on how men and women can be just friends just like and her husband for years until..... "oh crap!" LOL
-
People has up an article about Josiah and the "truth" as to why he and Margorie broke up. I can't get it to open.

They are "Counting On" us fools to keep watching the show and funding their lives. No real jobs to be had!!

I still remember the one episode when they went to support some movie (Fireproof?) and after watching it JBlob said that he would take his family to the movies if more good Christian ones like that were made. I remember shouting "No way!" First of all it would be him, JShell, and at least 10 of the kids. 12 people x $12 per person (give or take - don't know their movie prices) = $144! NO WAY is Mr. Buy Used and Save the Difference going to pay $144 so his family can be entertained for 2 houses. Who buys this crap that comes outta his mouth?
But yet again we should all go see these movies and support them with our $$

I thoroughly enjoyed this episode! To think Dustin's great-grandma was in the U.S. when he was a young boy but yet he didn't know her. What they went through!
And I adore Mia and her love of her kids. But I wonder if it will be hard that she has this wonderful chart and stories and most of her kids know nothing of their backgrounds.

What is sad is that I have a child around Jana's age. She was asked in her senior year of high school "what are you going to do next?" The world was her oyster. Jana gets asked about one thing: "When are you going to be a courtin?" There really can't be anything else for her (oh I know, the semi-mid-wife thing. But, come on. She is chief babysitter for MeShell.)
So let me get this straight. They don't watch t.v. except for a few Andy Griffith shows, but yet we all are suppose to watch them on t.v. religiously and support that as their income.
They don't listen to contemporary Christian music but we all are suppose to support BinTheRapper by downloading his crap.
No double standard there folks!

It would be so so refreshing to hear him say that they are done having kids. It is my gut feeling that is part of his problem that he really doesn't want more and panics at the thought of funding/raising more and feels that is a sin to say so. Or if he stood up for Anna and said "No more kids. I don't want my wife to one day have a laundry room breakdown like mom." Or even better "There is no way Mack is going to spend her childhood being a mother's helper because we have too many kids to handle."
One can dream.

Even NOW. He didn't choose to get a real therapist or psychiatrist for himself. He is 28 years old and capable of finding therapy for himself.
Good point!
When does he grow up and make his own decisions? My guess is that he still needs mommy and daddy's money, now that he blew his on hookers, so he obeys.

I have an opportunity to go to Great American Ballpark this summer. Has anyone every been? Any suggestions for seating and food?

I could totally see Joy running away to live with Famy and Mr. Famy. Do you think she will be shown in the new show much?

Hadn't even thought about that - along the lines of what you guys are saying, what if they don't get jobs/bookings? Do they blame the kids? "You didn't play the trumpet right now we are never going to be asked to come back to this church?" or "You were yawning and they audience doesn't like that. That is why the offering/our paycheck was so low." Ugh! I hope not!

I was wondering if Joshy has been sprung. Suppose he will go back home and work for dad. He had such a good thing going in Washington: a job he was never trained for - got without a degree - far away from daddy and mummy - and yet he blew it all. Idiot.

I like the one little girl yawning in the video Becca posted. She doesn't even bother covering her mouth - she is tired and will let you know.
It is sad when the kids are a source of family income. All playing together for a Christmas concert each year, or at a nursing home once a month, things like that are fine but having to depend on the kids to make your family income - just no. Parents that is your job! So go get a job or two!

Miles had a much better body of work. Sef and Vivian are only there because of the last piece. Miles room divider was genius. I want one! I hope he gets a lot of work now that he is home. Don't care for either Sef or Vivian's work.

JB charging Bin "rent" and a whole lot more. I could see that.

Do any of the adult Duggers get their own paychecks, or does the TLC money go into one account managed by JB and JChelle?
I have been asking that question for a LONG time! JB will talk about just about anything else but that. I would think any "child" over 18 would have to get their own paycheck but then again JShell and JimBoob could talk them into signing that check over for "rent and food."

That top picture looks like it should be called Spurge and the girls.
And, once again, someone will have to take one for the team. As much as I feel for Jana and hope she is stocking away this money, HER money, and will run away with it, I just can't watch this crap fest.

Joe does remind me of Rudy.
Debbie is SO annoying! Thanks to the person on page 1 who posted the link about her arrest record re: water claims.
Burn, Jason, burn. And Tai is so freakin annoying too. Find that idol and stay under the radar dude.

Didn't know that she had been to prison either! I hope she got that ear looked at. I still think she should have called in medics and had them look for infection.

I was hoping for more weird Al. I really liked the Tim Meadows character ("heck ya I can change your grade") but all of the yelling between Barry and Erika has got to stop!!! So tired of it.
Best part was when Bev confronted Al and after she left she said something to the effect "I pay you guys for security and you let this one get near me."

They may have competitive streaks, but come on!! You marry into or part of a very large family, all with the same goal (get married ASAP and have lots of babies) you must know your moment in the spotlight will always be short lived.
Josh & Anna Smuggar: A Series of Unfortunate Events
in Counting On
I think that might be the first smart thing they have done: hid away Joshy and not trot him out into the spotlight. Another good thing might be a vasectomy. But who am I kidding.
Anna, you go get counseling too! From a professional.
