Tough crowd!  She's wearing modern shoes with closed toes, pants, and a shirt that literally calls back to her family's ridiculous rules and there are still 35 things wrong with what she's doing.

I'm going to take a slightly different position than most here.  I think that there should be no pictures of the children with obscured faces and backs of heads in various activities.  No one needs to know what they do or where they go, but I think they could do portrait type pictures a couple of times a year.  I don't see that as invading privacy or endangering them.

That's my position. You can't tell much about what they're doing from a portrait picture, and you get to see them get older over time. You can tell a lot more about pictures where you just see the back of them. The only thing missing is the face.

Yeah I don't have any respect for the "I'm posting the back of their heads to respect their privacy" school of thought. That's not respecting their privacy. That's trying to cover mommy's and daddy's asses from critics with a valid point about safety while you still disrespect the kids' privacy and if anything you're drawing just as much attention to them by making such a big deal out of taking pictures but hiding their faces. 

 

This! 

The whole “pictures of backs of heads” is ridiculous and sort of reminds me of Michael Jackson (on a much smaller scale) making his kids wear masks… they still appeared in pictures and videos going places but always wearing bizarre masks

There's so many reasons parents don't post pics of their kids including privacy and safety. The royal family, who are world wide famous, publish a few, to keep the paparazzi at bay and satisfy their public obligation. Some famous celebrities keep their kids completely off SM and then other celebrities and influencers who promote their kids online and there's a bunch in between.

Because Jinger wrote in their book that she felt vulnerable by the Duggar 19 publicity growing up, J & J were kind of forced to walk the walk. But really I don't think they think its a problem, so they appear disingenuous - because they are.

Usually, A-list celebrities that have actual talents of their own mostly keep their kids out of the press and social media. It’s the Z-listers, washed up reality “stars,” and “influencers” that need to exploit their kids because they themselves don’t actually have any talent and skills to support their families without doing so.

I agree. The hiding their faces thing is half assed, but it’s still better than making hugely exploitative videos featuring their very young kids like Jessa and Joy do. They should all be supporting their own kids and giving them the privacy they deserve. Your suggestion of simply posting pictures a couple times a year is a great one, imo.

Jinger addressed what appears to have been concern for her appearance in her stories. She claims she has coffee, eggs, and toast for breakfast every day (as a creature of habit), then works out pretty intensely. Lots of weights. 

I hope she feels comfortable and not like she has to stay thin for Jer. Exercise bulimia and anorexia are serious issues. I'm concerned because she has self-admitted history with EDs.

He definitely is not a charismatic speaker. He’ll never lead a large church, but he may make it as a youth pastor, though he is a bit old for that. Maybe an assistant pastor who does a lot of visiting, outreach and just subs in the pulpit when the head pastor is out of town?

Outreach and visitation?  I doubt it. That would require some concern for others’ needs and time away from golfing and eating out, which he does not have.

I also think there’s nothing wrong with posting a family pic once or twice a year.  I have no idea what the point is of posting only the girl’s bodies/feet/back of head/etc.  It’s like dangling a carrot just out of reach of a rabbit.  If they don’t want people to see the child’s face, they should stop posting everything about the child.  I don’t know why they ever started posting pictures of Felicity to begin with if they’re so strongly against it.  Forget I said that.  I know EXACTLY why they posted all of those pics of Felicity.  They did it to gain more Counting On viewers.

I stand firm in two things here 

1. they stared this “privacy” conviction after Gabby and Cade did, and they’ll do anything to stay in that game bubble 

2. dangling the carrot gets them the attention they want. They are disingenuous with their “conviction” so teasers get them likes, comments and attention, they feed off people begging to see the children much like Jessa does with her name/gender BS

Did she say if she eats anything else the rest of the day/evening?

I thought the same thing about Jinger's eggs and toast for breakfast. I thought she shared one egg with Felicity and Evangeline...maybe a bite of the toast for her and the rest for the girls. I'm sure she's full of it.  Working out intently after breakfast? Why, so she can negate those calories? It looks like that to me. I would like to see video/photos of Jinger throwing most of those ice cream cones she claims to enjoy in the trash. My suspicions may be true. I hope they are not.

I forgot about her long Covid. I doubt she eats much.

I’m not even sure she has long Covid. She may be using that as excuse to explain why she eats so little. Same reason those with EDs often claim to be allergic to gluten and other ingredients. It provides them an excuse to use to try and explain why they’re super picky and don’t eat much. That said, I obviously don’t know if Jinger has long Covid or not, she very well may. But it’s odd to me that she only mentioned having Covid over a year after she allegedly had it. 🤷‍♀️

As far as her not announcing she had Covid, I think she knew there would be heavy criticism. They were going to church with thousands of people not wearing masks. MacArthur publicly fought the county over holding in-person services. 

There were a lot of reasons for her to keep quiet. Jeremy probably had it as well, but he's never announced it.

One can count on the Vuolos to follow the probiotics trend.  I did a little research and it confirmed my thoughts on the matter.  Normal, healthy kids eating a varied diet do not need them.  They might be helpful if kids have been on antibiotics or if a pediatrician suggests for digestive matters.

"Young Living" brand.. the same MLM pyramid scheme that other reality stars are shilling to their followers  🙄

"Young Living"?   Don't probiotics actually have to in fact be alive in order to be of value to the human body?  Whenever I've needed probiotics they've required refrigeration in order to keep the bacteria alive.

WOACB is saying The Sun ran an article about Jeremy attending a boozy "shoe" event without Jinger in L.A.  No evidence that Jeremy was drinking booze although he had a cup in his hand.  The event was put on by a shoe guy who makes individualized shoes that run up to $5,000 a pair.  There was an open bar, free tattoos, DJs playing music, a couple of rappers performing, with major Youtubers and influencers attending.  All the kind of stuff that could make JimBob's head explode.

Some need refrigeration and some don't.    

From what I've heard, humidity/moisture affects probiotics more than temperature.  

I take a brand that doesn't need refrigeration, but it has a moisture absorber pack in the bottle.

Now there's two reliable sources for you: WOACB and The Sun.
