He'll be 18 this year. Will he be inducted into the Lonely J's Club? He often gets mistaken for Jedidiah or Josiah.

I would add Jason to the group.  I find James, Jer, Justin, Jackson and the females easily identifiable, compared to the "Josh" group (excepting Hannie).  For a while I thought JD and Joseph were very similar, too.  

[Genevrier]

I am not sure I’ve ever seen that boy. Or maybe he sort of blends in, in family photos. Like a Duggar chameleon. 

 

(There really is a Jason, right? It’s not just a made-up construct created by the PTV forum?)

I'm beginning to think this entire family has an iron deficiency or something along those lines. Josiah's been in the restaurant long enough to order and get his meal, and he's got his jacket zipped up like he just walked in from the Arctic and there were many comments on all the winter coats in the Christmas pics. You'd just the body heat alone from all in people in the TTH at Christmas would have made coats uncomfortable. Most of their restaurant pics include coats. Most restaurants I go to are comfortable enough that coats are either taken off or at the very least unzipped. 

I notice that JB always wears a fleece indoors.  The Lost Girls always wear short sleeves with layers.  The do have radiant floor heat.  

After Jessa and Ben were married and first moved into the mold house, they had a discussion about setting the heat thermostat.  Jessa said she was used to a warm house and wanted it set at 72  degrees 24/7.

Jessa and Josh definitely look alike.

That picture breaks my heart, he looks so scared. And instead of comforting the poor kid MOTY films it. As a mother, I can’t wrap my head around it. When one of your kids gets hurt, you drop everything and help them. To stand to the side like that goes against every instinct. I don’t have words for how much I despise that hypocritical, cold-hearted excuse for a mother.

He looks like Jed. Out of all the Duggar boys, I think those two are the most attractive. If they lived normal lives, I'd imagine they would have girls hanging all over them.

I just remember when Josie had her seizure and Jana was flipping out. MOTY strolled in and could not have cared less. Made me sick. And I have no humanoid children!

I didn't see this. I've seen little of the actual show. But I did see part of one where they were in an airport and Jackson, who appeared to be about 4-to-6ish (I have trouble judging Duggar kids' ages), supposedly got lost trying to find a bathroom. When they were informed (apparently) that a missing child might be one of theirs, Jim Bob was shown strolling casually down a crowded hall, supposedly in search of his lost little kid. And then they showed the returned Jackson, quite upset, and guess who was holding him? Jana. No MOTY in sight. 

An airport. Competitive adult orienteers can get disoriented and agitated in a damn airport. But, to the extent that this event actually happened, the POTY clearly weren't disturbed by it at all. And, whether this or something else happened, Jackson was clearly disturbed by whatever it was. But only Jana presumably cared about his disturbed state. JB didn't care enough to rush anywhere and Meeechelle apparently didn't care at all.

Let me just edit to add ~ I have never seen a full show. I only see reports of the crazy things they do on this forum (I love you all) and I look at things on YouTube. They are bat-shit crazy.

And didn't JB and Michelle choose not to rush back immediately when they got the news?* Details are fuzzy to me. I forget where they were, but I think I remember it being Chicago or something. If I couldn't get an immediate flight, I'd have rented a damn car and driven all night. And I don't have kids either!

*I admit I may not be giving them enough credit. I don't remember the details of why they didn't rush back.

Some details here, but what I remember most is his answer to the question: "Do you think there are circumstances when a person is obligated to have sex with you?" And he answered yes. He also specified a petite figure, someone he could teach sexually (yeah, right), and experimenting with sex toys. All quite common desires, but coming from Mr. Sanctimonious himself, it was gross.

I'm an evil person for this, but I'm still super disappointed at how TAME Josh's desires were. I believe a shared bubble bath, of all things, was on the list. Not that I want to imagine him as a kinkster, but damn, the lack of imagination/knowledge of sexual possibilities is kind of amazing, and at the time I thought how much he just wanted anyone but his wife.

The only reason I'm sure there is a Jason is because he fell in the orchestra pit. He does exist!

Now there is no Justin. The Duggars are just padding the numbers there.

In this particular scenario I think it's more a case of "lookit my swanky jacket" than about being cold. He's positioning that burger very strategically imo.

I think any "friends" Derick has left are from childhood and college who are now alarmed at how he's changed and keep in touch out of concern/hope that this is just a phase.

That was from before Jill and Derick were married. He was working for Walmart. Obviously things have changed in almost four years.

I think you are probably right.  I have nothing against Derick personally - obviously I don't even know him.  But I believe that when you have a wife and children it's time to find employment.   (For all I know he HAS a job, now.)

This is what Derick says about himself: "I was brought up in a very Godly home. Christ was the center of everything. Grew up going to church, was saved at an early age. Was convicted of my sin, realized my need for a Savior in the third grade, August 31, 1998. From that point on, I’ve been striving to live every aspect of my life for Christ. I attribute that to my upbringing. My parents did a good job, I’d say."

But, when he was in college, he never said he wanted to be a missionary or make his living with some sort of religious activity.  His goals in college were to get married, then work in accounting for a couple of years, and then to apply to be an FBI agent.

Derick graduated from college in May, 2011.  Whatever he was doing for the next eight months of his life is unknown.  In January, 2012, he begins his two-year stint in Nepal as a "student-volunteer coordinator."  He says, "I led volunteer teams from America into Himalayan mountain villages." 

[xwordfanatik]

So, he was "convicted" of sin?  WTF.  Who talks like that?  

Dillweed is a lazy sack of bullshit.

I don't know, he just screams "Zeal of the newly converted" to me. Considering his mother didn't appear to turn crazy until after her cancer treatment, and the fact that he had at least one relatively  normal friend who's wedding he attended shortly after he and Jill married, I'm assuming he was just your standard annoying conservative Christian until the missionary bug crawled up his ass.

Yeah, but that still puts him three to four years behind JIngle and almost six behind David Waller. His parents might have done a much better job of getting him convicted if they'd signed up for some Gothard seminars.

Jana is MOTY, with strong assist by Jill (pre-courtship).

WTH kind of sin do you commit at the age of 8 to feel convicted of? You would think some of these people (David Waller and others) knocked off a Walgreens during those wild and crazy toddler years and stole thousands of dollars in benzos.

Am I remembering wrong or did Jill, back when she used to care about things, jump right into that pit after Jason to take care of him?  I clearly remember thinking, "Wow Mom's whipping out her phone to tape what's already being taped but her teenage? daughter is willing to jump right into the foray?  WTF, people?"

PS. Back When They Used To Care is the title of my fake biography about the Duggar children since I'm convinced half of them suffer from a major depressive disorder.

regarding the word 'conviction' used by dereck. as a christian, we use it to mean 'the personal understanding that we are sinful by nature'.  i can see where the convict part of it would be confusing. scripturally, i think it just means recognizing that we have sin in our lives.

When anyone else but someone like the Duggars uses that word and many other words like it, they make it sound so programmed as though they’ve got no idea what it means.  

Your definition is more accurate than anything they could ever come up with.  I’ve also heard it used by way of describing the sense one may have regarding behavior that may be acceptable to someone else, but believing it’s morally wrong, sinful, etc to take part in.  I often heard it used regarding behavior not explicitly stated in the Bible (women wearing pants, a small glass of wine now and again...etc.)

Jackson's "he was my buddy" means that means that Jason was on Jana's buddy team. I imagine she also had a boy twin as one of her first. Jana was about 10 when Jason was born, so we definitely know that she had *some* older howler as her first buddy.
