GeeGolly July 2, 2021 Share July 2, 2021 I don't put much weight in the blind items, but a long time ago Jana said during a show that she had struggled with forgiving someone. At the time, for some reason I thought it might be Anna. I'm thinking now it probably was Josh. I think it was an episode shortly after Josh and Anna married. But in later years, Jana often travelled with Josh and his family and made a couple of trips to DC when they were there. As far as the rest of the sisters, I truly don't think they hated Josh (until now). Even though their belief system is patriarchally based, much of that is in name only. Michelle and the older girls ran the ship. If you were to ask the younger crew who was in charge they'd likely say Jana and Jill, and in later years Jessa. Derick and Ben never seemed to have a problem with Josh, and Austin has known Josh much of his life. By the time Jeremy came along Josh wasn't in any shows and needed to hide from the cameras during family events. And the Vuolos didn't live in the area, so Jeremy wouldn't need to intentionally avoid him. Now that we're here, I'm thinking they've all lost any respect for Josh. And when and if Josh can ever be around kids again, I would lose respect for any Duggar that brought their kids anywhere near him. 1 15 Link to comment

Talking to other boys about sex, sneaking a peek at Playboy. First hug, kiss, broken heart, breaking hearts. His parents put the girls on a platter. He had normal needs to explore and given his upbringing it is a wonder nothing else happened in that fucked up hell hole of a house. Hell he couldn't have alone time to masturbate. I do think as an adult he should have known NOT to look at children being abused. None of us really know the reality of how sexual his parents displayed themselves in the open. there was an old 19 kids and counting episode at the mini golf course, no I don't think josh was there...it was michelles turn and jim bob was behind her wrapped around her with her arms trying to show her how to golf..he starts dry humping her in front of the kids they were laughing saying "you can't do this" like I said I don't think josh was there, but just image if they did THIS on camera what kind of displays did they do when the cameras were off at the big house I am sure josh saw im=nappropriate sexual antics between the 2 of them 8 Link to comment

I am just so so so unbelievably sad for Anna's children. They didn't do anything to deserve this. CPS! HELP THEM!!! I agree that the situation with Anna is not great, but I don't think farming her kids out like a litter of puppies to Amy, Jinger, or Jill would help their trauma. Beyond just the fact that I think separating siblings really should be avoided--when my childhood was at its shittiest, I can't even how much worse it would have been if my brother and I had been separated--but I don't think those relatives are necessarily calming waters even if they seem marginally more mainstream. In the past, Amy and her husband have admitted they have violent arguments, one of which culminated in him throwing her cat. Jinger always seems like she's under a tremendous amount of stress as she wrangles two small children while her lord and master spends his days being a snobby douchebag for the gram. Derick and Jill seem slightly healthier than they were--low bar--but I don't get the impression that Jill still has a high tolerance for stress. I doubt life for the Ms is very happy now, but I'm not really sure relocating to any of those households would necessarily not come with its own significant stress. And on top of that, two of Josh's victims (Jill and Jinger) may find it retraumatizing to care for his kids, and those kids may also find it additionally upsetting to be placed with people who have appeared almost gleeful about their dad's arrest occurring (Derick and Amy). And I get why they feel that way, but that's really not a cool thing for his kids to have to be subjected to right now. I do think Anna and her kids would really benefit from therapy, but unfortunately, I doubt that's ever going to happen. Edit to add: given the apparent estrangement Jim Bob has had with Jill and Amy and the distance Jeremy and Jinger have always lived from Arkansas during their married life, I'm not sure how familiar any of these people would be to the younger M kids, either, which hardly would be a comfort if you were suddenly separated from your mom and siblings.

Gigi43 July 3, 2021 Share July 3, 2021 (edited) Splitting up the M kids could be even more stressful for the kids and asking anyone to take on that many kids is too much. None of them seem to be in a position to take on any more kids than they can handle, especially if they're not used to being around them and Amy, Jill and Jinger probably have spent very little time with the M kids. Also as long as they're with the Duggar's it gives JB and M access to them to spin a narrative. I'm not trusting these gossip sites. Some say Anna's getting blame, some say Anna's blaming JB and M, some say they're all blaming the mainstream world--- these sites just want to talk about it for clicks. It's possible Jinger and Jeremy let Josh come out of obligation --- they may have (rightly) felt if Anna and the kids come, he's not someone who should be left alone back home without supervision, so they let him stay in the RV or whatever. That doesn't mean they spent alone time with him or actually wanted him there. J&J can control if their kids are alone with him by keeping them with him, no one would be able to control what he'd be up to if he was alone in AR. Edited July 3, 2021 by Gigi43 1 9 Link to comment

Hpmec July 3, 2021 Share July 3, 2021 Anna has 6, soon to be 7 children. Those kids are her responsibility, and she certainly wouldn't be the first woman to find herself with a bunch of kids and a loser of a husband most likely facing serious jailtime. She is extremely fortunate to have the Duggars who won't let her family starve. In the short term, however, she needs to come up with some sort of plan for supporting her children. I know those in the cult loathe the idea of public assistance, but that is an avenue she may have to explore at least temporarily. If she can arrange for the kids to be watched in the TTH, she may well consider what options she has for employment. With no education, that isn't easy, but Walmart is big in her neck of the woods, and at least it's a paycheck. The sooner she realizes it's up to her to step up and provide for her family, the better. Of course, she could always divorce Josh's sorry ass and look for a new headship, but I very much doubt there would be too many takers given the considerable baggage she comes with. 24 Link to comment

Kinship has to be something that all parties agree to, so if theyre uncomfortable they say no. but ok I had a sister, and I would have rather been with an adult I trusted and split up (knowing she was also with a trusted adult) than been placed in foster care.

GeeGolly July 4, 2021 Share July 4, 2021 I'm sure Anna is trying very much to live in the here and now and is expecting Josh to be home by Christmas or at least the new year. Depending on what the M & Ms have heard or know, or what they've been told, they're likely accepting this new normal by now. If they've been shielded from the truth, their lives probably haven't changed all that much. If Josh is sent to prison, Anna will probably have a benefit most in her situation don't have - inlaws that will provide for her. Or at the very least, will provide her with housing and babysitting. I'm sure Anna could start a cleaning business and clean houses for some more mainstream Fundies, or go into real estate. Ten years is a long time. If Anna doesn't wake up and come to her senses at some point during that time, she never will. 18 Link to comment

Those kids are her responsibility, and she certainly wouldn't be the first woman to find herself with a bunch of kids and a loser of a husband most likely facing serious jailtime. She is extremely fortunate to have the Duggars who won't let her family starve. In the short term, however, she needs to come up with some sort of plan for supporting her children. I know those in the cult loathe the idea of public assistance, but that is an avenue she may have to explore at least temporarily. If she can arrange for the kids to be watched in the TTH, she may well consider what options she has for employment. With no education, that isn't easy, but Walmart is big in her neck of the woods, and at least it's a paycheck. The sooner she realizes it's up to her to step up and provide for her family, the better. Of course, she could always divorce Josh's sorry ass and look for a new headship, but I very much doubt there would be too many takers given the considerable baggage she comes with. I agree with this but then I wonder, who’s the unfortunate J’Slave who will be assigned to provide childcare and home schooling while Anna works. Link to comment
