Joy and Austin: This One Time At Family Camp


Recommended Posts

Doing school work with Gideon for “like 5 minutes”. She also said she tries to do the 5 minutes every day, but sometimes it doesn’t happen. Then she said, “consistency works better than longer periods of time every so often.”. She does it to get the , “numbers, letters, and colors kind of ingrained in his head”.

Joy says consistency is more important than length of time. In the next breath she says they don't always get to it - the definition of inconsistent. If there's one family that needs formal school more than most, its this one.

I hope in two years time, the Lord puts it in their hearts to send Giddy to school.

Giddy is what, 3? Hopefully by the time he’s kindergarten age they will realize Joy isn’t the best one for homeschooling. Joy and Carlin Bates are best friends, Carlin has already said she’s going to homeschool, and Carlin isn’t too smart either, so there’s probably no hope for Joy’s kids.

Carlin will take the Alyssa Webster approach and chuck the kid in a corner with an iPad and headphones. I imagine Joy will do the same.

I think it's just a generational race to the bottom. Each generation will be less well-educated than their parents.

Well, Alyssa has demonstrated a consistent inability to spell even elementary words like "dining" correctly (she constantly made references to her "dinning room" on her Instagram over a period of months until someone finally couldn't take it anymore and corrected her--so, yeah, more advanced words like "midevil" don't stand a snowball's chance in hell of coming even close), as well as a total ignorance of cardinal directions (I swear, she got all four of them wrong during family Pictionary night) . . . so maybe her kids are better off with the iPad teacher.

To be fair, I'm sure the second one is more due to zealous efforts to abstain from anything labeled evil, as opposed to lack of education or knowledge, right?    ;)

I still say that they want each generation dumber than the previous generation. 

How do they plan on their uneducated adult offspring to have enough skills to be self-employed and support their own dozen+ babies? Or do they not see past their need to control this generation and as much as the next that they can?

Jessa and Joy look good in pants. Like Jill, they've got cute, curvy figures. It's a bummer they had to hide them for so long in shapeless maxis. 

 

Yeah, but think of all the divorces they haven't caused.....and all the energy they've saved for fundie girls and women who haven't been forced to yell NIKE!! to turn eyes away from the Duggarlings' curves.
