I realize that Jill has had time management issues in the past, but this post seems to me to be less about a real problem happening right now, and more about getting engagement on the post and potentially increasing its visibility - thus helping her sell her book. She's not pointing to a specific issue/incident, after all - she's keeping things very vague, and following the textbook recommendations to increase engagement - sound cheerful, ask questions, add hashtags - but no more than ten. And she very carefully tags Simon and Schuster into this at the end there. So I don't think this is a time management issue at all. It's someone else prodding her to promote her book. 18 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4651-jill-derick-the-kids-moving-on/page/1339/#findComment-8061607
GeeGolly July 2, 2023 Share July 2, 2023 The sad thing is, is the Dillards think homeschooling is an okay option. If the are only keeping them home due to Duggar time, they have options. Enroll them in a before school program and have Derick drop them off. Or have them sleep in their school clothes, have an easy self-serve breakfast waiting for them and then Jill just needs to get them to the bus stop or drive them to school. Or car pool with another family. Or, and this is a big or, Jill could just get her ass out of bed and get her boys to school. 16 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4651-jill-derick-the-kids-moving-on/page/1339/#findComment-8061609

ozziemom July 2, 2023 Share July 2, 2023 Jill is definitely looking for follower engagement with the almost daily posts, all with links to their book. But she probably does actually need help figuring out what to do with herself and the kids everyday while Derick is at work. She’s used to having another adult around - both her parents were always home - and this is the first time in awhile that Derick is away M-F for most of the day. 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4651-jill-derick-the-kids-moving-on/page/1339/#findComment-8061677

Yup - victim blaming. I think Amy’s statement was worded poorly, but the bolded to me puts blame on Josh as a predator, predators prey on the vulnerable (those who are physically and socially vulnerable)- not the blame on the girls for being vulnerable (of course they were vulnerable, they were children). I always believed Josh never touched Jana because he was terrified of her (she’d have broken his hand etc) and had respect for her given her authority in the home. That in no way means I blame the other girls for being assaulted.

Amy is an attention whore who puts her foot in her mouth, but given her experiences/statements in their totality I don’t think she blames her cousins for being assaulted- she sees her cousin Josh as a predator, she wasn’t his prey for a variety of factors.

jcbrown July 14, 2023 Share July 14, 2023 I agree with @GeeGolly that the statement is victim-blaming. I don't think that Amy would say it is her cousins' fault for being assaulted by J'inmate but the way it is worded, the statement is Amy saying that Josh "knew better" than to attack Amy, and that implies that she thinks there is something she did that her cousins did not that contributed to their assaults. It's a subtle distinction. There is a natural tendency to figure out how to exempt oneself from being vulnerable (I would not have gone there, I would not have worn that, I would not have been there alone, e.g.) and I think that is what Amy was trying to do ("how is this not something that would happen to me?"). In the way she said it, Amy--IMHO as someone who worked with survivors and worked to train people how to set up programs for survivors--(probably inadvertently) blamed her cousins for their vulnerability. 10 2 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4651-jill-derick-the-kids-moving-on/page/1339/#findComment-8073813

He was a brand new father, hadn't been married even a year yet, and I think he was likely still in a "honeymoon" phase with not just his wife but his huge new family by marriage. I think that he and Jill were swept up in fast-moving events when that news broke, and that JB/Meech and their advisor (Chad?) were large and in charge of what was happening inside the family. Derick said on SHP that he had not known about the molestations even after becoming engaged to Jill. The edit left open, to me, the possibility that after their marriage he was told something about it. Or that learned about it only when the news broke. If the latter is the case, that's one more disrupting thing that was going on with him amid all that chaos. I hope that Jill's book will lay out the timeline of their experiences with some insight into their thinking along the way, from their courtship to finally fighting with JB for Jill's compensation for all those years appearing on the show. It's absolutely possible that Derick is a cold grasping arse who was fine with watching his wife destroy herself with the Kelly interview, and was totally motivated by money when he took on JB a few years later. I think it's also possible that in the spring of 2015 when his family was swept up in the tsunami of Joshgate, he was still finding his feet as a husband and father and focused on helping his wife get through the crisis, hour by hour as things unfolded. Jill was conditioned literally from birth to respond to her parents with "instant obedience" (a direct quote from Meech). While technically her new "headship" was Derick, it was clear that JB was in charge of the family especially as to the TV show. I hope Jill's book sheds light on how much she shared at that time with Derick, her reluctance to do that horrible interview. Did she just keep sweet at the time so he didn't even realize how awful it was for her? I don't know. Maybe we'll find out more. ETA: Here's a possible scenario, of course it could be way off from the facts, but still. When Joshgate broke, Jill had just delivered Izzy. I assume that the news was devastating for her and she was - in addition to full of postpartum hormones - thus very upset and going through some strong emotions. Then she's told by her parents and Chad Gallagher that what she and Jessa must do, is an interview with Megyn Kelly which will be critical to saving the family's reputation, the show, etc. We know from her appearance on SHP that she felt pressured to do that, didn't want to, but felt the weight of saving her family was on her shoulders. What if she shared all of that with Derick at the time? And he said, I don't think you should do that interview because you're already devastated by all this mess having hit the news, and it's not fair for them to want you to do this. Not only do I not think you should do it, I'm gonna tell your father that as your headship I won't let you do it. And she responded, oh no, please don't. I hate this but I will do it because my parents want me to and it's important to help save the situation for the whole family. So what's Derick's next move? Does he go all fundie headship and forbid her to do it? Or does he, as a young man who loves his wife and views her as a life partner, not a subject to be controlled, talk it over with her - and her parents - and try to convince her not to do it? And then respect her autonomy when she insists on going ahead? Again, I don't know.

Derick said on SHP about the Kelley interview, "I would not call it voluntary," adds Derick. "Basically being called on to carry out a suicide mission: You're gonna destroy yourself, but we need you to take the fall so you can carry the show forward because the show cannot fail." I'm wondering why Derick didn't put his headship foot down and and protect Jill then. And why didn't he suggest get therapy at that time to help her through it? Derick had the balls to go up against JB for money, but not when he felt his wife was being forced to "destroy herself"? Considering the discovery materials during the sisters' trial against the city, Derick is lying his ass off about him and Jill not wanting to do that interview. They were active participants who contacted their PR team themselves with suggestions of what they wanted to say. The idea of accusing an official of accepting a bribe in return for the records was JILL's . She was told no, but JB liked the idea so much he went off script and said it himself. 1 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4651-jill-derick-the-kids-moving-on/page/1339/#findComment-8074423

This is why happens when your parents irresponsibly breed, then sell every intimate moment of your life to make themselves rich and avoid an honest day’s work.

auntieminem July 14, 2023 Share July 14, 2023 Jill posted in her IG story a thank you to the writer who helped (wrote) the book. It is a nice nod.

auntieminem July 14, 2023 Share July 14, 2023 (edited) I am not sure it was expired, it was frozen and had been in the freezer for a long time. So it would not be harmful but maybe lose some nutritional value and taste. I buy fermented goats milk (it comes frozen and is for dogs and cats). I give it to my dog everyday.

Or did Jill "bring in" her own "PR guy" - IOW someone else - in preparation for the interview? If she talked to Gallagher, or exchanged emails with him, she didn't have to bring him in.

But if she’s really making up a story (AKA lying), it’s going to make me think less of her, trauma or not. I understand her being mad and hurt about it all coming out, but blatantly making up a story about someone is wrong. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4651-jill-derick-the-kids-moving-on/page/1339/#findComment-8074917

GeeGolly July 15, 2023 Share July 15, 2023 I will always believe Jill was devastated when the police report was publicized, so I thought from the get go she willingly participated in the Kelly interview, not so much to defend Josh, but to share her outrage around the poorly redacted report. But I also believed her now, when she said she felt forced to do it. Now I don't know what to believe. IMO, Jill has never had anyone supporting her that only has her best interests at heart. Everyone around her has competing interests. JB wanting to defend his son and keep the show on and control the money. Derick, first fully enveloped in the Duggar machine and fame and then fighting with JB and then also wanting to repair his image. Jill said in her deposition that she wanted to repair her relationship with JB. Maybe since then they have tried and failed but I don't get the motivation behind this book, other than to make Derick look good. Maybe the book will reveal the reasons behind it, but if JB withholding the kids' money is their biggest and/or only problem with JB, then IMO, this book might end up revealing how much Derick is very much like his FIL. If that is true, then the Dillards missed the mark of learning any lessons during this feud and it makes me feel bad for Jill and her boys. 13 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4651-jill-derick-the-kids-moving-on/page/1339/#findComment-8075176
