You’re pretty disgusting and NO conservative, wanting to interfere in someone else’s choices and wanting to sic the government on them.
And PROVE that she’s “lying around pregnant”.
I lived across the street from a family of 17 when I was a kid. And 10 next door to them and 5 in the house on the other side. 32 kids in 3 houses. I used to be a bit contemptuous of that lifestyle, though not too much because I was friends with the ones close to my age. The mother seemed tired and the father very, very crabby. They were all just good Catholics. I wish I had a lot of kids.
Russia has a population problem. They are always more heavy handed than us, but at least they recognize that the solution is more sex. Programs like you describe are factors that the demographic demagogues can never foresee.
Everybody USED to wear hand-me-downs. Now people like this writer demand that everybody be freshly clothed from the Gap.
You’re insane.
They have a MORTGAGE FREE 7000 square foot home. They have run several successful business. They don’t work because they don’t HAVE to, and they want to spend time with their children.
There is NO BASIS for a “home visit” and you are just plain WRONG for suggesting such a thing.
You are obviously one of these “If you aren’t doing anything wrong, you shouldn’t mind being searched/being watched/ being tracked/being wiretapped crazies.
All that water! And the soap! Think of the carbon footprint from all that oxygen they're breathing.
Yeah - those are all things conservatives are supposed to provide for me! No fair stealing the stuff I'm stealing from other people!
An on-line CA law school? At 19 with no Bachelor’s or Master’s? Is that even possible? And only on-line? Not on campus with real live professors and other students? That doesn’t make any sense at all.
Well, I suppose they invented that to get back at the people who call them faggots. It's pretty well nonsensical really, except in San Fransicko where they're driving all the families out.
Welcome to FR, troll.
Actually I am very conservative, and it is my conservatism that leads me to question having 17 children. How can this lady and her husband take care of all of them? Think about college expenses alone. My parents had three kids and it was tough enough raising us and sending us all to college. This lady ain’t making any money. And is her husband, a car dealer, really making enough to provide for himself and 18 other people? Give me a break. This brood will be on welfare before you know it, and there is NOTHING conservative about having childen and expecting ME and other taxpayers to foot the bill and raise them!
How limited in thought are you?
Do you think everyone with a large family is looking for a government hand out?
If I died my family would not have a government hand out. I certainly have planned that.
There are many conservatives who would be insulted with your leftist way of looking at things.
As if the government was the only answer.
Because you are coming on this thread intentionally flaming and hoping to draw angry responses. That is the literal definition of trolling. It ain’t libel if it’s true, dude.
I find your demands that these people contracept or abort children that God has granted them to be hateful. I find your view that their decision to trade material things for familial love to be elitist. In short, I think you’re very, very wrong.
(2) demanding that your older children obtain GEDs instead of graduating from high school (a GED does not mean you “graduated”; it just means that you passed
In some states it is a method for a homeschooler to graduate.
I have a GED. I a non tradtional route to MIT for classes in highschool That was the way to end the school career.
You ought to get out more.
Those figures are from memory, and from a few years ago: they're undoubtedly worse now.
Ironically, it was said back in Moynihan's day that widespread contraception and the final bully back-up of abortion would take care of all that. In fact it has become twice as bad.
That's because the unintended consequences of contraception and abortion were far more pervasive and penetrating than the intended consequences.
And the deadly-efficient unintended consequences were to trivialize sexuality, kick the bottom out of marriage, abandon and impoverish (many) women into "autonomy," and turn (many) men into such puny, triflin' things that they no longer fit, and are no longer called on to be, husbands and fathers of families.
Well, back to the subject of this thread: Hooray for Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar! Hooray for their wealth of well-raised children!
Rogers, Ark. is a very small town. My guess is that the DHS people are close friends of the Duggers, and even if they weren't, Northern Ark. has access to cable or dish service. Their life is an open book. Since you have only been on FR for a couple of weeks, I will give you a pass on ignorance. Just get your facts straight before clicking that post button. , and their life is an open book.
Two weeks on FR. I will give you a pass. Just learn to have the REAL FACTS before you start moving your fingers to the post click.
It’s not that there are too many people, it’s that there are too many liberals.
