Sweet Fellowship: Duggars and Friends (aka the Bates Family and Other Featured Families Thread)

[BetyBee]

How dare those 2 (Kellers) have Nemo unsafely placed in his carseat?! Pro-life my a**! They should be ashamed of their carelessness and make certain it never happens again with the eleventy billion children they'll likely have! 

I bet JillR will soon make a post criticizing anyone who dares to suggest that Nathan and Nurie's are not perfect parents! They are godly and separated, so nothing bad can possible happen to them, doncha know?!

[GeeGolly]

I wonder how JillR would have told the story if a mom and dad with their 8 Fundy kids were in the car that hit Nurie?

[crazy8s]

Jill herself has posted pics of her kids not wearing seat belts, and a few pics of Janessa in a child seat, but not strapped in. It seems one of Timothy's violations was not wearing a seat belt.

One of these days one of them will go flying out the window. If you don't wind up dead, severe head trauma is not a joke. My friend worked at a group home where one of the residents suffered head trauma in a motorcycle accident. And I went to school with a girl who was in an accident. She went from the smart, popular and vivacious cheerleader to special ed.

I’m shocked Jill did not mention her sister Amy… believing in the right Jesus didn’t save her from being in a wheelchair.

And its not like she doesn't have living proof of how devastating a car accident could be. Her sister Amy lives it everyday.

She is a moron. I would think, God forbid, if it happened to one of her children, she might care, but I don't think she would.

Except when THEY want to force others to follow the rules of their “god.” Then they want all of us to comply.

So Esther is hanging with a Duggar and Duggar wives, but no Bates? Does anyone know who the other two are?

In the first picture, in the back is Tannan Millsap, and in front is Gabrielle Patton.

I recall seeing the one in the front in other pictures because of her Instagram name, drewsgal. Edited to add, the Jednkate page is private.

gabrielle patton is married to Andrew Patton, one of the partners/directors in the Mediccorps shenanigans. this pic seems to be a bunch of women with men involved in Mediccorps. the manly men must have been off for "skydiving training" or something.

Chalk pain is hideous, IMO.   You take beautiful wood and cover it with this flat paint that has no personality at all.   Just ugh.    

But I did not figure Jilly for someone who could appreciate the beauty in something, I've seen how she wears her makeup.   Cover up seems to be her modus operandi.

What do you think is in the bags?

Food donations for HUNKY lumps pantry would be my guess.

I see Russell Stover candy. It is the cheap stuff at least. A co-worker brought some in and I had a piece (it has been years since I ate their chocolate) and was reminded not to waste my calories again. 

But yes, where are the kid's gifts? My son is 28 and he gets a heart filled with Kit Kats every year and a card.

Just reiterating - that's a lot of stuff for Best Mama/JillyBean.  What did she get for her kids?  My guess is that thought never even entered her vapid head.  And what grown-ass woman needs ANOTHER stuffed animal?

Bet she's not sharing that chocolate with anyone but Hunka Junk while her kids sit and watch.

As I recall, her older daughters DID have a car accident - and she made them pose for a picture immediately afterward (likely for grifting purposes). 

[iwantcookies]

It was Nurie and a not Nurie. Jill grifted a new car (I think)

Not just right afterwards, but in the ER while still wearing neck braces and lying on gurneys waiting to be Xrayed to be sure their necks weren't broken.  But, Jill did wait for their lipstick to be touched up before taking the photo.  When Not Nurie #1 developed huge black eyes from the accident, Jill captured her beat up face for posterity too- after making sure she had plenty of gloss on her lips.

It is obvious why Jill needs so many teddy bears, looking at her table project, she uses them everywhere for decor-like an 8 year old.  The combo of the teddy bear on the crocheted doily looks like something my grandmother would've thought was too old fashioned/ugly to display.

not only grifted a car from a woman at their church, then stated the gofundme money would be used for a tow package so they could haul the car with their RV and they needed $3,000.

So not only did BME and GWE (I must be typing this too much, it popped right up when I typed B, lol) have a date night for Valentines Day but JillR got multiple gifts! The flowers are kind of skimpy, only one Teddy bear and two small boxes of chocolate. Maybe the Not Nuries didn’t have enough time to shop for more or Timbits forgot BME……

Timbits knows better than to forget Best Momma. He missed her birthday once when he was living out of state and probably still hears about it.

Where do the kids at home get the money to buy gifts? Only Tim and to a lesser extent the earring-making Not-Nuries have any "income." Nurie sent the cringey wall plaque, but she might have sent something else too since she needs Jill's grifting skills to replace the truck, which was probably totaled in the accident. After all, Nurie learned to flatter and beg from the Best Mooch Ever so she might as well start there.

She’d cry FAKE NEWS if she did. Every KJV worshiper acts like that was the version bless by Baby Jesus himself in the manger. Any other version is literally liberal garbage in their POV. When I was a teen in the early 90’s there was a family in youth group and their mom was the leader and she made it no secret that the KJV was the “correct” one and the NIV (the one our new pastor used) one was changed to be more modern. Even 13 year old me knew that was bullshit.  They eventually left because of how modern the church was becoming, because NIV and the worship service was not entirely old hymns. You know, because Jesus and the disciples  definitely sang Old Rugged Cross at the last supper.

Our church was once infiltrated by some fundie families.  They all left when our pastor couldn't be persuaded to use KJV.  lol.  We use NIV and NASB.  lol

Jill would hate me, I read the Catholic Bible. 

[laurakaye]

I hope these poor kids don't spend weeks of dread anticipating each upcoming holiday, wondering what Bestest Mama Ever wants THIS year (as I'm sure her refined tastes change all the time), stressing about how they are going to pay for it, maybe sending the little ones to check under the easy chair for loose change after Shrek has gone to bed, etc.

Since Jill proudly tells us via her social media that holidays are about her and her alone (Valentine's Day, Christmas, Mother's Day, Arbor Day, Bubble Wrap Appreciation Day), it makes me so sad to think that it's highly likely her kids not only go without, but that they have to scrimp for pennies and dimes to make sure that Mama has gifts worthy of bragging on SM - no gas station flowers for her, no way.  And we know that if she did a damn thing for her kids on any holiday, she'd post all about it for her haters followers to see.

TL;DR - Jill sucks.

Why on earth did Jill bother painting those tables when she was just going h to cover them with “decor” (aka tons of cheap dollar store crap)?

The “decor” looks slightly better than the paint job.

On FB I saw one of Jill R.'s videos of the congregation singing in her church.  The choir seemed to be mostly made up of Rodrigues offspring.  I'd bring it over if I knew how to do that stuff~

and crazy Jill taping everyone and sing so awfully. My ears hurt
