GeeGolly January 16, 2016 Share January 16, 2016 (edited) I'm thinking asking for donations to help these boys is just another scheme by the Dullards. The tutor mom probably knows nothing about it & would never see a dollar from the donations. I guess the Dullards bank account is running a little low. That Zika virus thing is scary, especially since its mosquito driven. I'm with you JoanArc, they probably arent up on the news. Hopefully, Cathy is. I agree they are probably are unaware or think it won't happen to them. However it would be a good time for Jill to use her Midwife expertise to spread awareness, and find ways to help pregnant woman reduce their risk of getting bitten by a mosquito.

Jilly Muffin wouldn't know how to spread that "expertise" if a mosquito bit her in the face. She has NO science education, for instance. Obviously, she would have no idea that mosquitoes can spread contagion through bites. She would not be interested in telling the women in their area that it's best to sleep with a net around one's bed, let alone obtaining those nets to pass out. She probably thinks praying is sufficient to ward off the mosquitoes. I can't imagine a convo with Jilly Muffin. It probably goes like this. Weather. Weather. Jesus. Jesus. Jesus. Weather. Jesus. Derick made me breakfast. Jesus. Jesus. Jesus. Weather. Izzy got a tooth. Jesus. Jesus. Jesus. 12 Link to comment

sometimesy January 16, 2016 Share January 16, 2016 Maybe the Duggars could give information on the school that will be teaching the boys English. What if they receive $500 many times over from leg-humpers, do they keep that donation request up there? Link to comment

She probably thinks praying is sufficient to ward off the mosquitoes. That's what missionaries are for, silly! Jill and Derrick are too busy being immersed! If they were really smart (Jill: Take Notes!) they'd be asking for $500 to pay for netting and citronella candles. It's the perfect blend of Jill's 'expertise' and a current event, so of course they won't think of it. 5 Link to comment

He'd get the Disciples to pass them out and offer practical assistance. That's secondary to what Jilly Muffin and Triple D want, so it doesn't matter, does it? Their missioncation, their donations and their "saving of souls" will always come in second to what Christ commands, won't it? If they're not willing to offer the practical help Christ commands they must for the poor and needy, they can freaking leave the country. 9 Link to comment

louannems January 16, 2016 Share January 16, 2016 New York Times is confirming the first U.S. Zika virus case, in Hawaii. The mother had visited Brazil last May. The CDC is recommending pregnant women, and women who may become pregnant, avoid many CA and SA countries. They have all the countries listed, including Guatamala. The baby affected by the virus has an underdeveloped head. He has microcephaly, affecting skull and brain size. 1 Link to comment
BitterApple January 17, 2016 Share January 17, 2016 I can't post links through my phone, but Pickles has a post up where the Dullards are asking for another $500 on top of the original $500 they requested to send those two boys to language school. If this is so important to them, why don't the flipping Duggars kick in a lousy $500 bucks? Boob just spent a small fortune flying half his brood down to CA for a tropical vacation, so it should be chump change for him.

That Zika virus thing is scary, especially since its mosquito driven. I'm with you JoanArc, they probably arent up on the news. Hopefully, Cathy is. I thought the same except I figured they'd ask for way more than $500 for a low bank account. I think that confused me more than if they'd asked for $50,000 Don't know the value of a $? $500 goes really, really far in Central America? I just thought it was an odd amount. And I'll just go on record as saying I hate mosquitos! We get aerial spraying around here all the time for West Nile and it freaks me out. Zika seems far worse.

RazzleberryPie January 17, 2016 Share January 17, 2016 (edited) Jill is failing at motherhood even worse than Michelle. To her credit, wasn't Michelle something like five or six kids deep before she had her laundry room breakdown? Jill can't even handle one, and Izzy seems like a relatively calm baby.This is beyond bizarre to me. Is Jill stupid? Somewhere on the autism spectrum (not saying autistic people are stupid, but asking if Jill has some sort of processing disorder - I still think she is low iq as well as some sort of disorder)? Is her learning ability really that stunted due to her upbringing?I mean seriously, she is another one who is not a natural mother. Clearly. She can't make basic decisions. She might be able to open a book and look at the words, but she retains twisted and inaccurate 'facts' instead of being able to put 2 and 3 together. How on earth does a grown ass woman who already raised four or five siblings from infancy to at least middle school have such a difficult time handling one baby. Her OWN baby. How does she not know by now that teething babies chew and need something besides paper. That if you have a errand or 1 hour scheduled appointment, you get a sitter or schedule it when your baby is napping. She is incompetent. For someone whose whole life has revolved around pregnancy, birthin' babies and raising a huge family, Jill is a major dumbass. Totally. Edited January 17, 2016 by RazzleberryPie 15 Link to comment
RazzleberryPie January 17, 2016 Share January 17, 2016 This is my belief as well. I'm not saying all men do this, but I know plenty who have chosen to work the night shift so they get to sleep the entire day and then leave for the entire night to get a break from their wife and kids. Derick going to class alone to get a break from Jill and Iz makes sense. Absolutely. Or like men who love to travel for work so they get a few evenings to just veg in a hotel room eating pizza and watching baseball without three kids whining. It is selfish, but not that unusual. As clingy as Jill is - she's Stage 55 if that's possible - I couldn't imagine not feeling smothered. The whole helpless helmeet sounds appealing to men who need a reason to be authoritative, but hobestly, having a spouse who can't make basic life decisions without permission, or be alone for five minutes - that sounds like hell on earth. Even my obedient (sometimes) Lhasa Apso will get sick of my husband and me and go hide under the bed. 11 Link to comment
BitterApple January 17, 2016 Share January 17, 2016 Razzleberry, I think it's because for as many kids the Duggars have, they know jack shit about child development; what's normal, what isn't. I've watched the show since the beginning and even small toddlers were left to their own devices or supervised by siblings just a year or two older. The family warehouses kids and meets their basic needs, but doesn't do much more beyond that. Additionally, I think Jill is just dumb. Like, doesn't have even a mid-level IQ dumb. The lights are on, but no one's home. 10 Link to comment

The lights are on, but no one's home. Dumb and brainwashed. I seen a huge difference in some people who are not very 'high IQ' intelligent or educated, but just naturally are more nurturing. Some people who have never been around babies just have an instinct and know what to try, or have an interest and want to learn and apply as much as possible. Dumbass Clinger Jill THINKS she knows everything and has picked and chosen weird tidbits from Gothardy boons, but still doesn't have a clue. Worst part is, she's one to pontificate and tell everyone else how to 'do things a little differently' - but her ways put lives at risk. Note: Jessa's homebirth and Jill's own homebirth. It's one thing to insist you know the BEST way to curl your hairC but worst case scenario is the curl doesn't hold or you burn a strand. With midwifery and foreign missions, somebody is going to get killed. At least with Priscilla Keller, she maybe isn't articulate, and the jury is out if she is low iq or brainwashed, but she really is a hands on, dedicated, attentive mother. I think a lot of it is natural instinct for her, plus, she is actually trying to learn. Learn facts and figures, but also to learn to identify and anticipate how to respond to her babies needs. Jill is just way out there. Way out there. 7 Link to comment

I'll bet the siblings haven't seen a newspaper in a year, if they've ever seen one at all. They don't watch anything that's not "bible based" or contains any knowledge that didn't emanate from Gothard, Inc. They don't spend time with anyone who might be a critical thinker, or anyone who has more than a high school diploma. (Triple D is not an exception; he doesn't strike me as smart, either). Jim Boob and J-Chelle wanted dumbed down, compliant children, and that's what they got. A case of unfortunate spelling if I ever saw one. WHY are all the leghumpers so DUMB?? Seriously!
