ChocolateAddict November 25, 2019 Share November 25, 2019 I think it's easy to forget that it wasn't just JB&M who were telling the Duggarlings that their parenting was the best way to raise children. Michelle was given a prize for being MOTY, they were invited onto national TV shows with a wide reach (like Good Morning America) and they've been doing speaking tours for more than a decade now. Not to mention the obvious one which is that they were rewarded with a national TV show as a platform to show off their superior skills in childrearing and by exension, they got a house, international travel and a comfortable lifestyle without having to work. In the mind of the Duggar offspring, this external validation would reinforce the idea that JB&M were so amazing at parenting that the entire country wanted to know about it. After all, it's not just their immediate circle who thinks they are fantastic. Hell, even Joshgate wasn't enough for JB&M to lose speaking gigs and now they're back on TV. So any questions they had about how they were raised would be going against what they've been told from hundreds of people and continue to hear on social media. All these thousands of people who admire JB&M couldn't be wrong! Not to mention any criticism of their parenting is ignored as the ultimate enemy, 'Christian persecution'. It's not exactly a surprise that the next generation is by and large following the formula and mimicking the greatest parents ever. Just another way that JB&M and TLC have screwed them over. 20 Link to comment

Surely if it's different it's wrong and sinful. 6 Link to comment

Why oh, why does she need to keep telling us how happy she is and how much she loves her "little" family? Of course the answer is obvious - she's trying to convince herself. I can stand to see the kids, but I wish she could spare us the pics of her monkey man. ETA - Those are some massively baggy jeans. Looks like enough room for the entire family.

cmr2014 November 28, 2019 Share November 28, 2019 These are some of the best photos we've ever seen of Derick. He appears to be relaxed and happy and he's actually engaging with Izzy. I don't believe for one minute that these are his default settings, or that he's anywhere in the neighborhood of "best hubby ever," but Jill did a much better job of presenting her family here than she normally does. 20 Link to comment

My kids have discoloration from getting too much fluoride as babies (long story). The permanent teeth were affected by something that happened and ended long before they even had a full mouth of baby teeth. 2 3 Link to comment

doodlebug November 28, 2019 Share November 28, 2019 Just now, crazycatlady58 said: Yes my teeth are discolored because of Tetracycline. Tetracycline does cause discoloration of teeth, but it would be all of them, not just one. When there is a single discolored tooth, it's usually because of an injury which causes bleeding inside the tooth causing bluish discoloration which eventually turns brownish. It can also signal damage to the root of the tooth, even that the root has died. I think Jill said Israel got hit in the mouth with a toy or something causing the discoloration. Some sort of trauma anyway. 5 8 Link to comment
sixlets November 28, 2019 Share November 28, 2019 After watching this video, we better hope and pray that Derick never lands himself in jail. Muffin has the 'baby girl' act down pat without the jail aspect. I'm pretty sure we've heard all of those phrases spouted by her at one point in the past six years. This woman's 'husband' (they are not legally married) is serving an outrageous 213 year sentence in federal prison. If you hear her refer to Adam, that's him. 1 Link to comment

Yes it is a method some people use, but I’m also too paranoid and the lack of control, I haven’t ever tried it. Also if it’s done in the morning it will need to be reheated, which I’m not a fan of doing. Considering Jill isn’t the most skilled of cooks, I hope she did her research on how to properly use this method. And yes that turkey is enormous if it’s just the 4 of them. I like left over turkey, but only for a day or two. 5 Link to comment
