A man who treats women with kindness and respect, and does calls out others for the way they live their lives while he is the one who is total ass and has his own dirty little secrets. I seriously doubt it will actually happen, but a person can always hope. One can hope- but it would take a Very Special Man to step up to the plate to be a step-father to 6 children, and to put up with Josh, his family, TLC, etc. where would Anna meet him? We’ve yet to see a single family in the Duggar circle to have remarried after a spouse died, nor have we seen one remarry after divorce( or even divorce in the first place). 5 Link to comment

Who would help her with child care? Public assistance is not enough for her to pick up her life. She would need 3 months rent in her pocket before she can leave. She would need much more than that. Does she even have credit? I can't imagine anyone would rent to her . her only hope would be government assistance or someone would have to take her in. I do agree, she is horrendously stuck just like the cult wants her to be. 4 Link to comment

This sister also wears pants and her significant other is quite a bit older than her and well off, I think. I have a feeling this sister is quite a bit more mainstream than Anna. I just don’t think Anna can find her way to meeting someone that would take her on because she has really drank the Koolaid and I don’t think the fundie circle would see her as a catch.

IF Josh were to leave Anna, in several years when the kids were older I could see her being a catch to an older fundy guy who was a widower or something. But now? A young woman with six kids isn’t a catch even in the fundy world. The kids are all too little to work in the family business or take over all the domestic duties for another household. They are dead weight financially and physically (for the new spouse) and all the emotional drama of dealing with the Duggars 😑. There are plenty of fundy women even Anna’s “ancient” age of 30 who haven’t married yet, OR who “got saved” later with only one 1 child (or none) if an older fundy guy was looking for a spouse. I don’t think Anna would leave Josh, but if he left her I could see her marrying again when the kids were a bit older (a decade from now). 4 Link to comment

Furthermore, have you seen even one of the Duggars even admit Ronnie exists? I do not believe remarriage is the norm in the Duggar crowd.

But Josh and his circumstances and his continuing to hover in the Duggar atmosphere. He is a lazy brainwashed idiot. It's been four freaking years since he was fired by FRC, almost exactly four (it was May 2015). Even allowing for his time in Jesus Jail how many certifications could a motivated person get in four years - not even that how many could he get in a 12 month course even if he had to bring his GED knowledge up to snuff. He could have been a certified bookkeeper, a certified medical coder (high demand for this) or transcriptionist, a court reporter (ha the irony), entry level IT certification or web developer (something that could be a big career built on continuing education), electrician or plumber (he'd even be out of apprenticeship by now), HVAC tech, paralegal. Heck he already knows how to drive the stink bus and RV's, get a CDL license and go on the road short or long haul. If he really wanted to pull himself and Anna out of their situation and get out from under JB's thumb there are many ways he could have done it - it may take some determination and study, it may mean low pay and work your way up but if he'd started years ago when he lost that cushy fake FRC job where could he and his family be right now? But that of course means Josh has to take initiative, buckle down and actually work 9-5 or longer with all that annoying stuff like a boss and accountability and a regimented schedule probably at a desk all day.

floridamom April 28, 2019 Share April 28, 2019 Regarding Anna, we have to remember how twisted their thinking and logic are. These people secretly 'want' to be persecuted and tested for their faith in God. The heartache, public humiliation that Joshua brought her and not to mention the public ridicule of her decision to stay with him is some type of badge of honor for her. She was being held up as some sort of Christian wife-example for all to see. This public suffering compares them to the suffering of Christ bringing her closer to Him and she suffered 'for Him'. Boy, is she holy now in God's eyes. ANNNNNNND, I can't believe that I just typed that. 11 Link to comment

I bet Josh would have turn out to be a total ass even if he had a normal decent childhood. I also think he is sorry because he got caught, and is not sorry for what he did aka the devil made me do it or I was just curious about sex and the female body. Anna was "given" to Josh because his idiot parents thought it would cure his needs. Of course it doesn't give him a right. Nothing excuses what he did. No one has a right to molest anyone, much less their own sisters. Josh may have had issues regardless of how he grew up, but my point is that his upbringing did him no favors whatsoever. His parents responded inappropriately and likely never forced him to take ownership for his terrible behavior. Then he got married young and probably shouldn't have. If he was a better/stronger man he would have resisted since he clearly wasn't ready to settle down, but I do understand that it would be difficult to grow up in Duggar world and suddenly break away and do your own thing. It's kinda like when someone who grew up in a broken, dysfunctional home with terrible parents ends up getting involved in criminal doings. Their background doesn't excuse their actions (and many people grow up in terrible situations and lead good lives), but you see how the environment they were raised in helped to worsen the issue.

Churchhoney April 28, 2019 Share April 28, 2019 (edited) I'm baffled by this whole fishing connection. Is Joshley known in those parts as a dedicated angler? He doesn't look anything like a fisherman in the picture. And do fishermen buy fishing-related stuff because they're attracted by the idea of some woman staring up at them in adoration while they stand around in sunglasses looking like idiots? It looks to me like those products are meant for people who are really serious about creating and maintaining good fish habitat somewhere so they can, you know, fish. But the image in the ad doesn't suggest that in the least to me. To me, the ad says, "You, too, can stand around looking like a two-bit but pretentious con man and have an ordinary-looking woman making googoo eyes at you." I don't know who wants that, but I'd be very surprised if many serious fishermen do. Maybe this guy owed Jim Bob a favor or money or something? Or maybe the Duggs figure that the leghumpers who want the Joshley family back on the show will "Swipe Up" just to be supportive? .... Although I don't know how many would be supportive enough to buy fish habitat-creation gear just to show their solidarity with the Smuggars.....Especially if they don't own a pond or live next to a creek or something...

None of the married boys except JD have any freedom or independence, and JD still works for Daddy. Are they afraid to leave because they are so dull,lazy,stupid, or have they been a product of JB systematically depriving them of education,socialization and the chance for a normal life so that they would stay? They haven’t been taught any life skills, the girls can't cook,or clean and go to SM to ask questions about child raising instead of their mother. What does that tell you? The boys dabble in carpentry,selling used cars,and bible study. None of the children were encouraged to follow their dreams. Everything that JB has done is strictly to promote the Duggar brand. First 19k, then CO.,the specials, the appearances on mainstream tv, the little girls album and the bald boys band. Everything. And,he will do it until his dying day. JB keeps his children on a short leash, whether with threats or promises,he controls the money and every aspect of their lives. The kids for the most part live in Duggar houses,drive Duggar cars. I think they are all too terrified of life outside the cult, so they stay, marry spouses with similar up bringing, take the handouts and pop out blessings. It’s the only thing they know. Maybe, in the beginning the Duggars were “godly” people, but it quickly turned when JB saw the potential of a windfall by putting his family on display. Now the only god this family follows is JB. 1 15 Link to comment

Thank you. My husband, 20 yrs, and I, 3 yrs, are both vets. I doubt any female vet would be given any gift by fundies. 17 Link to comment

A man who treats women with kindness and respect, and does calls out others for the way they live their lives while he is the one who is total ass and has his own dirty little secrets. I seriously doubt it will actually happen, but a person can always hope. She will never leave Josh. The only way this marriage will end is if he leaves her and that looks very unlikely at this point. 7 Link to comment
Sew Sumi April 28, 2019 Share April 28, 2019 A Duggar promoting vets is beyond ironic. Someone with a burner IG account should remind the leghumpers that no Duggar will ever join the military. 22 Link to comment

They’re like the Romneys - dozens of sons but none have ever joined the military. 4 Link to comment

The Duggars are part of God's Army so why join the regular military where they might have to put their lazy selfish behinds on the line to serve and protect heathens who do not follow their train of thought.

Ever since Joy and Austin married, I thought they would be a perfect young military enlisted couple. Austin would be a success because he works hard, and Joy has the ability to enjoy life as it comes to her. 13 Link to comment

And yet that possibility-- like most other possibilities -- will probably never even occur to them. That's one the most crazy-making parts about the Duggars, to me. 4 Link to comment
