Good Lord, I want to call this amateur hour, but I'm afraid to insult amateurs so cruelly.

Jill’s latest minute lecture is all about lack of knowledge.  Ha ha

Jill got ahold of Tessie's eyebrows. ☹️

Aww, crap. I thought we would have a bit more time to save her…

Jill needs to stick her tweezers where the sun don’t shine.

I couldn't believe the difference. The only plus is that they aren't sperm brows. 

Yet.

I would politely decline, but smile and tell them to have a good day, just as I do with the JW children who are forced to do this. Poor Phillip. It’s bad enough that he’s emaciated. I wonder why he had to wear the full black suit in mid-July while his brothers and father were in lightweight short sleeved shirts. 

He may’ve been preaching.

I can post Tessie's eyebrow before/after. The pic came from Reddit.

Aww, crap. JillyRod went after her with her tweezers. 

[awaken]

Gorgeous girl. I’m sorry she’s being taught so much crap and doesn’t have a chance at a normal life. And would likely hate all of us who don’t share her family’s beliefs. Such a shame. 

[Snow Fairy]

Tessie probabby wanted to be like her sisters and didn't mind the eyebrow "fixing"

Too bad she does not know better

Unfortunately there are parts of Tennessee that would welcome you Jill, but there are parts of the state that will think you are BSC.  

Why don't you go ahead and sell your earthly possessions Jill?  I won't even say sell 100%,  but you could sell 75% and still have a lot more than your kids will ever have as long as they are living under your roof.  Sell your possessions and use the money to feed and clothe your kids, Jill.

All Jill cares about is possessions… she has to be trolling us.

Jill is the Queen of "Do as I say, not as I do". Her admonitions are meant for us heathen sinners. We're the ones who need to give away our possessions because they stand in the way of us seeing the light and accepting Jesus into our lives. She doesn't have to worry about that because she is already one of the Lord's angels here on earth. Her grandfather's clock and closet full of teddy bears aren't mere possessions, they're "blessings" bestowed upon her as a reward for her faithfulness.

[floridamom]

Tessie had great natural eyebrows with a soft arch in them. She now looks like they were 'darkened' with pencil for just a 'touch of added horror'. So sad for her.

[Teriacky]

I liked Tessie’s brows au natural. Jill I’d just ruining her daughters’ looks with her retro clown makeovers.

[beckie]

Jill can't have Tessie being prettier than she is.

They both could use a dose of humility.

This makes me so sad - just as it does for every Rod/Duggar daughter who gets her young teen years ripped away from her because it doesn't matter if she likes reading, or soccer, or chess, or math.  They're all just being groomed by their parents to become a bride at 19 and a mother at 20.  It's like with those side by sides of Tessie, we're witnessing a huge step in their brainwashing and I hate Jill and Michelle and all of them for making sure their daughters know that the only thing they're really good for is breeding.

If that’s Jill showing love I shudder to think what hate looks like 

 

taking kids hiking in flip flops or sandals how wonderful right

 

she is a failure as a mother

Frumptastic . Fundie chic 😂😂😂.

[BradandJanet]

There's water, and the Rods are dressed for swimming! 

They probably haven't had any showers in the last week, so here's a chance to get wet. 

[iwantcookies]

 

Also where is HUNKY hubby at? 
 

If she went without him other people would assume she is a sluttish single mother.

He's probably sitting on a bench nearby eating a hot dog and drinking a coke. 

Jill sure went heavy with the filters on her denim photo. Her hair looks like it just burst into orange flames.

and why is Tessie standing on tip toe or wearing heels? I noticed hannah doing that in the last pics. she was tip toe or standing with something under her heels. the ones where there were passing invites to the old fashion tent thing

Why does it say TLC at the bottom of the pic?

It is probably a TLC-branded sticker in Instagram. Jill used a TLC-branded and wedding-themed countdown clock on the pictures she posted after they mailed the invitations to Nurie and Nathan's wedding.

Her neck lost an inch of rolls. She touched up her nose and her chin too. She always does that.

Meanwhile, her kids are disheveled and raggedy.  How come the littlest girls are wearing tights and leggings and long sleeved shirts under their poorly fitted rummage sale-wear while the older girls are allowed to be barelegged and wear short sleeves?  

The photoshop job is laughably bad.  Does she really think anyone is fooled by that?

I presume the TLC sticker is there because she is undoubtedly sending them updates from the family instagram, hoping that TLC, having dumped the Duggars, are looking for another fundie family to do a show.  Jill has delusions of grandeur. Dream on, Jill.  

[floridamom]

I think JillR photoshopped her nose too. That's not her natural profile IMO.

Jesus doesn’t like liars, JillyRod. Just sayin…

Oh… AND FEED AND PROPERLY CLOTHE YOUR “BLESSINGS.” FFS, unless your youngest “blessing” has Fred Flintstone feet… BUY HER THE CORRECT SIZE SHOES.

The older ones and the younger ones really are dressed for different seasons.

The younger girls are  apt to do heathen things like run and jump that might show a bit of leg. Anyway, Jill probably likes to see them suffer in unseasonable, ill-fitting clothes to make sure the modesty lessons stick. 

As for photoshopping, I'll bet Jill shaved a few pounds off her girth too. Her vanity knows no limits.

Those four youngest girls look like refugees.  The fifth girl from the left in all gray has toothpick legs.  The whole group looks so peculiar.  Can you imagine the looks they must get from "regular" people (heathens?) in public places like this?  I want to rescue them, but cannot afford 12 children.  And by the looks of things, neither can their parents.  😞

The smallest child looks like she’s wearing a grown woman’s shoes.

Weird, Jill's hands and collarbone are white, and her face, neck and arms are pinkish.

[realityfan26]

If you go to her facebook page, she has a video of them walking up some path. Check out the faces of the girls behind her when she flips the camera around. It's just a quick moment, but the girls go from straight face to fake smiles in an instant. 

I HATE that they're not dressed properly for hiking nor does it look like anyone had water.

Her face and neck look like they are stuck on the wrong body. 

Jill is such a pathetic loser.  Her children look like war refugees while she tries to pass as a twenty-year-old beauty queen at a country fair.
